[LeftToDecay]

The me that you know he used to have feelings
But the blood has stopped pumping and he's left to decay[/u]
The me that you know is now made up of wires
And even when I'm right with you I'm so far away
NIN - The Becoming

Yah! That's where I come from!!

Some more NiN snippets;

think I know what you meant.
that night on my bed.
still picking at this scab
I wish you were dead.
you sweet and perry ellis.
just stains on my sheets.

From Something I can never have
Verse never made to final cut but apprears on lyrics sheet.Always thought it was much more powerfull than anything else on that song.And thats saying quite a lot

I?ll heal your wounds
I?ll set you free
I?m jesus christ on ecstacy

From Suck
On live performances, Reznor replaces word "christ" with "fuck" which is just pure genius



Smashing Pumpkins Stand inside your love

Who wouldn't be the one you love
Who wouldn't stand inside your love

Just can't get much more beautiful than that.
Ever so romantic "i can never have you but i still love you" vibe.

[Drew]

Sometimes...just blow-up.
Sometimes...just deflate.
Sometimes...just hang-on.
Sometimes...pull away.

"Make A Deal With The City" - East River Pipe

[GnFnR87]

I got a few: (non GNR)

The me that you know he used to have feelings
But the blood has stopped pumping and he's left to decay
The me that you know is now made up of wires
And even when I'm right with you I'm so far away
NIN - The Becoming

the becoming is fantastic, i forgot about that song, i think that is trent's best lyrically, And All That Could Have Been Is also great:

please
take this
and run far away
far as you can see
i am
tainted
and happiness and peace of mind
were never meant for me
all these
pieces
and promises and left behinds
if only i could see
in my
nothing
you meant everything
everything to me

NIN~And All That Could Have Been

[Mr. Dick Purple]

After listening all its a hard life the best line to finish the song is "I did it for love"
I think is just perfect! 

[Aava]

"If she says she's going
just make sure she goes"

Babyshambles - I love You (But You?re Green)

[kaasupoltin]

I love this, dont know why:

Well don't bury me at all
Just place my livin' lovin' laughin' bones
In a jar of alcohol

By Hanoi Rocks.

[Mr. Dick Purple]

Sometimes I wanna kill
Sometimes I wanna die
Sometimes I wanna destroy
Sometimes I wanna cry
Sometimes I could get even
Sometimes I could give up
Sometimes I could give
Sometimes I never give a fuck

[Drew]

Every word you never said
Echoes down your empty hallway
And everything that was your world
Just came down

Day breaking on the boulevard
Feel the sun warming up your second hand heart
Light swimming right across your face
And you think maybe someday, yeah
Maybe someday


"The Difference" - Matchbox Twenty

[kaasupoltin]

People ask me if I am going insane
But I say it's just this missile in my vein
It comes on hard, there's no stop no start
And it kicks so strong, the kick goes on
Over and over 'til you can't belong,
It's an endless song
One, two, three, it goes on

Great

[Mr. Dick Purple]

Hearing the Show Must Go on by Queen the best line is I'll face it with a grin, I'll never give it in those lines are fantastic specially cause someone that's ill have such power an energy to continuing living with a smile in his face 

[Backslash]

"I am the way, I am the light
I am the dark inside the night.
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams
and in the dark I hear your screams."

A recurrence in a few Savatage songs.

Another Savatage one, specifically from Alone You Breathe:
"You've thrown it all away
And now we'll never see the ending to the play.
The grand design, the final line
And what was meant to be."

I have so many that I love... Aerosmith's Dream On:
"I know what nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes.
I know it?s everybody?s sin
You got to lose to know how to win."

I'll leave with a classic Dan Bern (amazingly talented folk musician) line.  It's from Lightning Jazz:
"I said 'Hey God! Hey God! Hey God!
How's it hangin', tough guy?"

[Drew]

And when everyone is cold as ice
I clinch my fists and close my eyes
Imagining the world outside
But I can see that I?m not blind

"Good Intentions" - Toad The Wet Sprocket

[Lithium]

How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found
The same old fears
Wish you were here

Wish You Were Here, Pink Floyd

[Kujo]

Cool, someone else listens to Savatage

Here's two of my favorites from them:
"Summers Rain"
I never wanted to know, Never wanted to see
I wasted my time till time wasted me
Never wanted to go, Always wanted to stay
Cause the person I am are the parts that I play
So I play and I plan
And hope and I scheme
To the lure of a night
Filled with unfinished dreams
And I'm holding on tight
To a world gone astray

As they charge me for years
I can no longer pay

"Believe"  Backslash already referenced this one

I am the way, I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams
And in the dark I hear your screams
Don't turn away, Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there, I'll never leave
And all I ask of you
"Believe"

[Backslash]

Cool, someone else listens to Savatage

Here's two of my favorites from them:
"Summers Rain"
I never wanted to know, Never wanted to see
I wasted my time till time wasted me
Never wanted to go, Always wanted to stay
Cause the person I am are the parts that I play

I love how Savatage songs repeat lines.  it's awesome... I believe this is in When the Crowds Are Gone, too. 

[Kujo]

You are correct, I mislabled the song.

[D]

Prince "Pretty Man" hidden track on Rave un2 the Joy Fantastic


"I write a check and the bank bounces"

Fuckin brilliant!


also Bon Jovi "Welcome To Wherever You Are"

When you wanna give up and your heart's about to break
remember that you're perfect.... God makes no mistakes

[Drew]

No more turning away
From the weak and the weary
No more turning away
From the coldness inside
Just a world that we all must share
It's not enough just to stand and stare
Is it only a dream that there'll be
No more turning away?

"On The Turning Away" - Pink Floyd

[Sparksry]

Got a crazy feeling I don?t understand
?gotta get away from here
Feelin? like I shoulda kept my feet on the ground
Waitin? for the sun to appear

Ozzy Osbourne------- Flying High Again

[DEAD HORSE]

Through all those
Complex years
I thought I was alone
I didn't care to look around
And make this world my own
And when she died
I should've cried and spared myself some pain...
Left me incomplete
All alone as the memories still remain 

Cementery Gates - Pantera


" Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes.......
You'll stumble in my footsteps"

Walkin in my shoes - Depeche Mode
