I keep thinking I'll have to start keeping a notebook with me for when I hear a line in a song that makes me think "gee I wish I'd written that, it sums up what I was thinking/feeling perfectly" I figure this may be the next best thing. I think you can tell a lot about a person by what music touches them. I'd like to hear lines from songs that are really meaningful to you all. A couple of mine to start off with -
I am too connected to you to slip away, fade away, days away I still feel you, touching me, changing me & considerately killing me. - H. - Tool
I have learned not to trust, I have to watch everything I feel, you'll never know & I'll never let you see, what I've done & what's become of me. - October Grey - The Screaming Jets
It's better to die on your feet than to live on your knees - Power & passion - Midnight Oil
If you don't make a friend now, one might make you so learn the gentle art of making enemies - The Gentle Art of Making Enemies - Faith No More
Sorry if this has been done elsewhere, I couldn't find anything.

Meaningful Lyrics
I've not put where they're from - Google can get the full lyrics and besides, they're all well known. Maybe. Method of selection - I can hear them clearly when I remember them, and they all call up emotions of one form or another.
Shark's gotta swim, bat's gotta fly, I gotta love one woman till I die. To Ed or Dick or Bob, she may be just a slob, but to me, well, she's my girl, and I love her.
Five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates, ain't no time to wonder why, whoopee we're all gonna die.
The old Rocker gets out his bike to make a ton before he takes his leave, up on the A1 by Scotch Corner just like it used to be. And as he flies, tears in his eyes, his wind-whipped words echo the final take, and he hits the trunk road doing around 120 with no room left to brake.
Between us there is nothing but the shadow of the future that will never let us go to be together. Between us there is nothing but the snowline of the country where you will not be mine. It's savage weather.
Some have harsh words for this man of renown, but some think our attitude should be one of gratitude. Like the widows and cripples in old London town, who owe their large pensions to Wernher von Braun.
You'll see, when those rows of dust-clouds settle, there are helicopters on the walls of Troy.

Nullius in verba ... ☎||||||||||| ... To Fate I sue, of other means bereft, the only refuge for the wretched left.
When flower power came along I stood for Human Rights, marched around for peace and freedom, had some nooky every night - we took it serious.
Who has a spare two minutes to play in this month's FG Trivia game! ... My other OS is Slackware.

"We care a lot about you people, we care a lot about your guns,
we care a lot about the wars we're fightin' gee that looks like fun.
We care a lot about the Garbage Pail Kid's they never lie,
we care a lot about Transformers cos there's more than meets the eye
we care a lot about the little things, the bigger things we top
we care a lot about you people, yeah you bet we care......." We Care a Lot - Faith No More
"One last thing before I quit I never wanted any more than I could fit into my head I still remember every single word you said and all the sh*t that somehow came along with it, still there's one thing that comforts me since I was always caged and now I'm free!" Monkey Wrench - Foo Fighters
