  2. “Fools” said I, You do not know
    ……Silence like a cancer grows
    ……Hear my words that I might teach you
    ……Take my arms that I might reach you
    ……..But my words, like silent raindrops fell
    ………..And echoed in the wells of silence.” – – – Simon

  3. Elbow deep inside the borderline

    Show me that you love me and that we belong together

    Shoulder deep within the borderline

    Relax, turn around and take my hand

  4. Eat
    Drink
    Be merry
    For tomorrow we die

    – Dave Matthews

    Edit not the best but pretty damn deep.

  5. Trying hard to speak and

    Fighting with my weak hand

    Driven to distraction

    It’s all part of the plan

    When something is broken

    And you try to fix it

    Trying to repair it

    Any way you can

  7. Dead in the middle of Little Italy little did we know
    That we riddled some middlemen who didn’t do diddly

    Big pun

  8. “You said ‘you should kill that’

    I said ‘oh no fuck that’

    You said ‘come on be a man’

    What? You’re a total anti sexist, a patriarchy fighter

    but your whole world view collapses

    The moment there’s a spider COOL

    I get it, this is the real you

    It’s a pleasure, nice to meet you

    Shit like this brings the movement down,

    Everyone’s a feminist until there’s a spider around”

  9. “You’re friends are really morons, can we still date?” Never change Kenny Hoopla, never change.

  10. The faint blaze of the candle of my life
    Slowly dying like a fire in the pouring rain
    No sparks of hope inside
    No shooting starts on my sky
    On broken wings, no flying high

    Another night, another demise
    Cadaverous winds blowing cold as ice
    I’ll let the wind blow out the light
    ‘Cause it gets more painful everytime I die…

  11. The clouds will part and the sky cracks open

    And god himself will reach his fucking arm through

    Just to push you down

    Just to hold you down

    Stuck in this hole with the shit and the piss

    And it’s hard to believe it could come down to this

    Back at the beginning

    Sinking

    Spinning

    -NIN

    ————————————————————–

    Seems so practised, me fucking this up

    -Matthew Good

  13. It’s a sad man, my friend

    Who’s living in his own skin

    And can’t stand the company

    -The Boss

  14. “If you can feel what I’m feeling then it’s a musical masterpiece/ If you can hear what I’m dealing with then that’s cool at least/ What’s running through my mind comes through in my walk/ True feelings are shown from the way that I talk”

    Pass the mic- Beastie boys

  16. There’s a lot to choose from, but this is the first line that popped in my head when I heard the question.

    “Wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then”

    Bob Seger, Against the Wind

  17. All I want is for everyone to go to hell

    It’s the last place I was seen before I lost myself

    All I want is for everyone to come to hell

    There we can be free and learn to love ourselves

    -Idiot by Every Time I Die

  18. “Strangers passing in the street, by chance two separate glances meet. And I am you and what I see is me.”

  22. I am happy now

    I am not crazy anymore

    I wont beat up your brother

    I will be fake and smile

    I will play nice with others

    I will keep it all inside

    As long as no one fucks with me

  24. Sprawling on the fringes of the city
    In geometric order
    An insulated border
    In-between the bright lights
    And the far, unlit unknown

    Growing up, it all seems so one-sided
    Opinions all provided
    The future pre-decided
    Detached and subdivided
    In the mass-production zone

    Nowhere is the dreamer
    Or the misfit so alone

  25. She said “hey, I’m am artist” and then she just started to make this thing out of cocaine and I swear to god it said…

  26. “And I give up forever to touch you
    Cause I know you feel me somehow.
    You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
    And I don’t want to go home right now.”

  28. She said, “All I can hope for is for me to get better

    Because all I can take is no more

    I’ll win him back again, we’ll be lovers, best friends

    He won’t need no other woman like he did way back when he was with me”

    He needed more than me

    I’m friendly and thoughtful and quite awfully pretty

    But he needed more than me

    – Tears Over Beers by Modern Baseball

  29. “You know the type, loud as a motorbike, but wouldn’t bust a grape in a fruit fight” – Jay Z

  31. The way you treated your exquisite wife and mother fills me with the urge to defecate

  33. When they turn the pages of history

    When these days have passed long ago

    Will they read of us with sadness

    For the seeds that we let grow

    We turned our gaze from the castles in the distance

    Eyes cast down on the path of least resistance

    Cities full of hatred, fear and lies

    Withered hearts and cruel tormented eyes

    Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise

    Beating down the multitude and scoffing at the wise

    The hypocrites are slandering the sacred halls of truth

    Ancient nobles showering their bitterness on youth

    Can’t we find the minds that made us strong

    Ohh, can’t we learn to feel what’s right and what’s wrong

    What’s wrong?

    Cities full of hatred, fear and lies

    Withered hearts and cruel tormented eyes

    Scheming demons dressed in kingly guise

    Beating down the multitude and scoffing at the wise

    Ohh, can’t we raise our eyes and make a start

    Can’t we find the minds to lead us closer to the heart

  35. “You’re the shit stain on the underwear of life.”

    Won’t back down – Eminem

  37. “I love the way your butt swishes, but none of these slut bitches, worth me askin’ my doctor why my nuts itches”
    Fabolous

  38. I like big butts and I cannot lie
    You other brothers can’t deny
    That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
    And a round thing in your face
    You get sprung

    Say I’m wrong

  39. Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind

    Or

    We are eternal, all this pain is an illusion

    Or 90% of Wings for Marie. If someone wrote that for me, I’d murder for them.

  40. I see a Grey gloom on the horizo, that promises a powerful sun to rise. One to melt all moons

  42. So ya…thought ya…might like to…go to the show.

    To feel the warm thrill of confusion, that space cadet glow.

    I’ve got… some bad news for you, sunshine. Pink isn’t well, they stayed back at the hotel

    and they sent us along as a surrogate band.

    WE’RE GONNA FIND OUT WHERE YOU FANS REALLY STA-HA-HAND!

  43. Dylan has a bunch that’ll just knock you dead when you hear them, but I’m gonna go with Townes:

    *Lefty, he can’t sing the blues*

    *All night long like he used to*

    *The dust that Pancho bit down south*

    *Ended up in Lefty’s mouth*

  44. Raining blood..from a lacerated sky..bleeding its horror..creating my structure. .now I shall reign in blood🤘🤘🤘
