24 comments
  1. “Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief. All kill their inspiration and sing about their grief.” U2 – The Fly

    “What have they done to the earth, yeah?
    What have they done to our fair sister?
    Ravaged and plundered and ripped her and bit her
    Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn and
    Tied her with fences and dragged her down.” The Doors – When The Music’s Over

  2. “I thought that if I piled something good on all the bad, I could cancel out the darkness I inherited from dad.”

    Noah Kahan – Stick Season

    I heard it recently and it hit me way too dam hard.

  3. “Only bending when you break” Soundgarden- Rhinosaur. Probably the dopest and most masculine line I’ve ever heard that wasn’t cringy.

    “Your weakness builds me” Alice in Chains- I stay away. This line always sends chills down my spine.

  4. “Don’t call it a comeback. I’ve been here for years. Rocking my beers, putting suckers in fear. Making the tears rain down, like a monsoon! Listen to the bass go boom! Explosion ocean! Overpowered! Over the top, conditioned, we’re towering. Records drop. Charts we top. Lyrics that will make you call them cops. Don’t you dare stare. You better move! Don’t ever compare. Us to the rest that are all getting sliced and diced. Competition’s paying our price.” From the five finger death punch cover of “mama said knock you out”

  5. “If tonight I fall asleep for the last time, I want to be proud of the things that I’ve done right.”

  6. Before the truth will set you free, it’ll piss you off
    Before you find a place to be, you gonna lose the plot
    “Too late to tell you now, one ear and right out the other one
    ‘Cause all you ever do is chant the same old mantra…. “BMTH

  7. So many good ones. One that always hits home for me is “Time” by Pink Floyd, particularly this verse:

    “And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun

    But it’s sinking

    Racing around to come up behind you again

    The sun is the same in a relative way

    But you’re older

    Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death”

  8. “Maybe people only ask you how you’re doin’

    Cause that’s easier than letting on how little they could care” – *The Late Show* – Jackson Browne

  9. For the impact of the line,

    “It’s a cold, cruel world, and it’s meant to be as such, because if it all becomes too easy man, you start to lose your touch…”

    But for the beauty of the wording,

    “And the sea turned the color of sky turned the color of sea turned the color of ice…”

    And a runner up,

    “I used to flap my tongue like fists of flint against the granite fools until sparks blazed in my eyes it’s true…”

  10. I know someday you’ll have a beautiful life

    I know you’ll be a star

    In somebody else’s sky

    But why

    Why

    Why can’t it be

    Oh can’t it be mine

  11. Son if you ever pull heat
    Then use it
    If you got a chance to walk away
    Then do it

    Be prepared for the worst
    But expect the best
