Best lyrics in a Muse song

[Girish]

I'd just like to know what you think.

I would go for the obvious one - Butterflies and Hurricanes. Just amazing!

[Hobo]

Invincible. :yesey:

[Harpsy]

Invincible. :yesey:

+ 1 :LOL:

[Wrightstuff]

The small print, very meaningful lyrics, awesum!

[Ollie of Symmetry]

I would actually say Invincible to be honest...from the heart...and their lyrics easy to relate to...unlike half of the spacey shit Matt sings about...

The message is good what the lyrics in B&H are trying to get across, but i don't think the lyrics them selves are anything speical...but ye another gd example...

[Juuso]

I'm failure for humour today so I'm gonna break it to you, Invincible has dreadful lyrics.

Eternally Missed has good ones, if you don't mind the "shroud" thing. Fury, Dead Star, Futurism (oral sex lololol), City of Delusion

[thecitizeneraser]

Execution Commentary.

No seriously, well, Muscle Museum is incredibly raw and heartfelt. Sunburn's lyrics are very intelligent as well. Blackout gives me goosebumps, as does Screenager and the end of Citizen Erased. Hoodoo and Glorious are simply crystalline though. Gah, it's hard to decide.

[Hobo]

Right, anyway, actually getting to the topic itself...some of my lyrical favourites are probably Showbiz (no surprise there :rolleyes:), CE, Megalomania, TaB and City Of Delusion. :yesey:

[Harpsy]

Being serious now...

CE, Glorious, Blackout, Muscle Museum, Showbiz... the list goes on

I can see why you think B&H because it sends out a good message, but it isn't really one of my faves.

[Clunge]

New Born by a million miles.

[Yus]

There's so many... Falling Away With You, Shine, Eternally Missed, Sing For Absolution... :happy:

[Juuso]

New Born by a million miles.

He speaks the truth.

[Ducky101]

Ruled by secrecy.

[emilya]

hmmmm....it's a tough call between overdue and map of your head...."i'm young and i know when i'm aroused" or "wearing just socks and a phone" ... fucking motherfuckers lyrics are pretty deep too

[skittles]

Fucking Mother fucker ftw :happy:

[Enemy]

All of Matt's lyrics say something meaningful, and that's what makes them amazing to me.

But if we're talking about lyrics in the sense of poetry / craftmanship, these songs would qualify:
Citizen Erased
Falling Away With You
Time Is Running Out
Stockholm Syndrome (lyrics that mean nothing, yet everything.)
Glorious
Ruled By Secrecy
Shine (whoa)
Soldier's Poem
Bliss
and probably New Born too.

[Girish]

I love muscle museum and sunburn lyrics; muscle museum my all time fave muse song.

[Ducky101]

All of Matt's lyrics say something meaningful, and that's what makes them amazing to me.

But if we're talking about lyrics in the sense of poetry / craftmanship, these songs would qualify:
Citizen Erased
Falling Away With You

Stockholm Syndrome (lyrics that mean nothing, yet everything.)
Glorious
Ruled By Secrecy
Shine (whoa)
Soldier's Poem
Bliss
and probably New Born too.

+1 to all of those

[thecitizeneraser]

+1 to all of those

:yesey: Agreed.

[Enemy]

:yesey: Agreed.

I forgot Blackout!!!

[thecitizeneraser]

:eek:

I did agree with all the ones you put though.

[Girish]

:eek:

I did agree with all the ones you put though.

+1.

P.S. Should i add a poll with the songs from that list?

[Enemy]

:yesey:
Most of all Citizen Erased to me

[Firebaptist]

Nishe :yesey:






But seriously, Citizen Erased, or Blackout :yesey:

[Lacuna]

my favorite has to be unintended, the lyrics pull at my heart!

[Girish]

my favorite has to be unintended, the lyrics pull at my heart!

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

I love those lines.

[Spc.Dmnt]

Hmm, for me it goes like in order:

Invincible
Falling away with you
Citizen Erased
Map Of the Problematique
Sing For Absolution (especially the last part)
TIRO
Eternally Missed
City Of Delusion
Stockholm Syndrome
Hoodoo
Bliss
B&H
Blackout

Hehe, your username sort of suggests so;)

[museydusey]

Megalomania has some good lyrics...

[thecitizeneraser]

Hehe, your username sort of suggests so;)

Yup. :)

[Noucten]

Right...*tries to think logically*

The obvious:
Hoodoo
Shine/Shine Acoustic
Citizen Erased
Blackout

Not so obvious:
Escape
Falling away with you
Map of Your Head
Screenager
Sober :LOL:

[thecitizeneraser]

Royal Canadian blendeeeeeed, the spicy aroma has mended meeeeee... :LOL:

[Yus]

Sober :LOL:

:LOL:

"You're so solid, it burns inside of me," is rather inspirational isn't it. :stunned: :p

[she_had_a_username]

Oos I think has some of the best lyrics, especially New Born and Citizen Erased. And Fury has some good lines.

I like Ruled by Secrecy's lyrics, even if there aren't that many words. They just seem to work with the music and the mood so well...

[That Little Animal]

Ruled by Secrecy. Megalomania. New Born...

And I kinda like Exo-Politics too.. So literal and unpoetic, it reads like a science fiction novel. A really bad science fiction novel..

[Tramp-In-Denial]

Falling Away With You
The Small Print
Take a Bow
Map of the Problematique
Invincible
Host
Dead Star
Crying Shame
Shine (Acoustic)
Shrinking Universe
Coma
Hyper Music
Plug in Baby
Darkshines
Megalomania
Muscle Museum
Cave
Escape

Not saying these are their best lyrics but they've all meant something to me before.

[Aquila(be)]

I really like the lyrics to Falling Down. They're dreamy and fluffy and cute. Makes me feel good.

[thecitizeneraser]

Falling Down is beautiful. One of the first Muse songs I learned how to play on the guitar.

[Static Shadows]

"You do it to me sweetly
To my yeah yeah
You do it to me lovely
To my yeah yeah"

:yesey:

[ultramarine]

Falling away with you is one of the best, but Hoodoo is definitely my favourite.

I''ve had recurring nightmares that i was loved for who i am
And missed the opportunity to be a better man

I love those lines.

[Bulletproof]

New Born
Space Dementia
Citizen Erased
Sunburn
Ruled By Secrecy
Thoughts Of A Dying Atheist
City Of Delusion
Soldier's Poem
Hysteria
Blackout

[Grandma]

Hi, interesting topic. I'm twice the age of most of you, or more, so I must count double. I see only one mention of my favourite lyric.

Darkshines

I think it's very erotic, and accompanied by that guitar solo toward the end, there maybe should be an age limit for listening to it.

If this thread keeps it up for a while, I will think hard and make a list.

Mette, not really a grandma

[Degrassi41]

Corny as it may be, I think Invincible and Soldiers Poem have very touching lyrics.
Other than that, Muscle Museum, MOYH, and CE.

[Requiem1394]

I'd say either Blackout, Butterflies and Hurricanes, or Thoughts of a Dying Atheist.

Though, one of my single favorite lines is from Falling Away with You:

"Staying awake to chase a dream
Tasting the air you're breathing in"

One of the most powerful and meaningful lyrics for me.

[Lynzi]

Corny as it may be, I think Invincible and Soldiers Poem have very touching lyrics.
Other than that, Muscle Museum, MOYH, and CE.

I love the invincible lyrics but didn't want anyone to laugh at me if I said that. :p

[*OoS*]

They all have amazing lyrics, but my favourites I would say are from Easily :happy: (sexy demure pining... :D )

[seregon]

The line "Cherished dreams forever asleep" in Endlessly :p

Muscle museum always stand out for me. Mainly the chorus I got confused over the toilet line.

Eternally Missed intro
Bliss
Space Dementia though they can turn you insane
New Born obviously
Basically all the songs on Oos are quite lyrically strong I think
Showbiz, especially the line "pushing us into self destruction" so dark
Can't think of anymore right now..

oh and cave!!

[Spc.Dmnt]

Whoah I forgot to write Dark Shines :( sorry about that. Bassline + piano + vocal = pwnage :)

[Purplesum]

Easily, Bliss, And B&H for beautiful lyrics.

TAB, Showbiz, and "don't waste your time or time will waste you" :happy:

[Apocalypse Pleasure]

Hoodoo has some of the best lyrics. True story.

[Aquila(be)]

Hoodoo has some of the best lyrics. True story.
It does.

[thecitizeneraser]

Yeah, Hoodoo gives me the chills. Kickass song.

[Lynzi]

I just rememberd

Take a bow are my favourite lyrics

That song just owns!!!

:p

[slaychickenstoday]

Dead Star

[thecitizeneraser]

I love TaB live. :D

[arias]

Yeah, Hoodoo gives me the chills. Kickass song.Yeah it rocks along with fucking mother fucker + cowbells

[MadameDajy]

Falling Away With You. ♥ Sappy, I know, but damned if it doesn't get me all choked up.

I'm lolsensitive, apparently.

Also Hoodoo. :happy:

[Kuutar]

Falling Away With You. ♥ Sappy, I know, but damned if it doesn't get me all choked up.

I'm lolsensitive, apparently.

Also Hoodoo. :happy:

:yesey:

[Hobo]

Falling Away With You. ♥ Sappy, I know, but damned if it doesn't get me all choked up.

I'm lolsensitive, apparently.

Also Hoodoo. :happy:
Of all of Muse's "love songs", FAWY's easily the best lyrically. :yesey:

And you can't fault Hoodoo on any grounds either. :happy:

[miele]

it depends on the mood / setting:

"everything about you is so easy to love, they're watching you from above"- when you're recovering from a personal disaster/ loss.

All of unintended- when you're recovering from a bad breakup.

Take A Bow / Assasin- ass-kicking / activist moments

Muse is the soundtrack to my (and a lot of other people's) life (lives).

[kaobang]

Micro Cuts (Hands are red with your blame Megaphone screaming my name Whimpers someone I should've loved Souls weeping above...), Megalomania (The good news is she can't have babies And won't except gifts from me What are they for? They'll just grow up and break the laws you've loved...), Darshines (Bringing me down Making my heart feel sore 'Cause it's good...). In fact I love all the lyrics in Origin Of Symmetry even if I know a lot of people will disagree with me... I'm less fond of their lyrics now, but I still like their music a lot!

[stevelikesmuse]

Take a bow. Show George and Tony who's boss.

[Lasur]

Hoodoo:
"And I've had recurring nightmares
That I was loved for who I am
And missed the opportunity
To be a better man"!
That is genious, if my father has understood what it is about, my family would have stayed together... Matt write in Russian! :D

[funktronic]

Hoodoo:
"And I've had recurring nightmares
That I was loved for who I am
And missed the opportunity
To be a better man"!

your father is Russian? that's cool. sorry about your family.

=======
oh, and i like the lyrics to Bliss. well, they aren't all that impressive on the paper, but they work great in the song and are delivered with such conviction, which makes them very powerful, IMO. anyways, i just like the song, bah

[Janu5]

My favourite? Try to gues :D

Uf, If people, especialy familly and friends, knew and understood that verse... It's too late, so I have to live with It, and make the best out of It :'(

But on general, I really can't decide, because the majority of Muse lyrics are masterpices on their own, well, for me at least. They have a song for every mood I'm in.
That's why I love them.
Because, in my 'silly' complexed mind I see that I'm not alone, someone understands the world (on general, and our own mind) like me.

yeah I know... cheese :D

[J-man]

Ok so following the trend of the best of 'the best' threads, what are, in everyone's opinion the best Muse lyrics? My personal favorite is Bliss.

Everything about you is how I wanna be
Your freedom comes naturally
Everything about you resonates happiness
Now I won't settle for less

Give me all the peace and joy in your mind

Everything about you pains my envying
Your soul can't hate anything
Everything about you is so easy to love
They're watching you from above

Give me all the peace and joy in your mind
I want the peace and joy in your mind
Give me the peace and joy in your mind

Everything about you resonates happiness
Now I won't settle for less

Give me all the peace and joy in your mind
I want the peace and joy in your mind
Give me the peace and joy in your mind

[*OoS*]

We've already had threads like these - sorry :(

Anyway I love all their lyrics. Matt's the best poet/lyricist, ever :D :p. I love the themes and how they go perfectly with the music ^^.

My two cents shorted from infinity words to one sentence lol.

[Elisaveta_Russia]

What is your favorite song...but by lyrics? Which lyrics do you like the best?
Well... mine are in my signature:)

[Musemonkey1]

I'm sure this thread has been done before, but probably Hyper Music. So emotional.

[Finlay]

Mine has t be either Showbiz or Unintended

[Neaver]

Megalomania

Hate This And I'll Love You

[Caman]

I tend to find most of matts lyrics appaling.
But if i had to chose, I would say Fury and Hoodoo

[Speedtouch]

Megalomania
Hoodoo
Take A Bow
Soldiers Poem
...are all quite good I think.

Fury
Hyper Chondriac Music
Megalomania
Supermassive Black Hole ( yes I know, but when you know the song is about oil, it had pretty good lyrics imo )

How To Disappear Completely

nup dont know it

[Lone_Star_Lynch]

Lips are turning blue,
A kiss that can't renew,
I only dream of you,
My beautiful.

Tiptoe to your room,
A starlight in the gloom,
I only dream of you,
And you never knew.

There's nowhere left to hide,
In no one to confide,
The truth burns deep inside,
And will never die.

I don't find the lyrics important in Muse songs, it's more how they're sung. Matt can make lyrics that would sound like a cliché sound great.

[Jay Bee]

Fear
And the panic in the air
I want to be free
From desolation and despair
And I feel
Like everything I sow
Is being swept away
Well I refuse to let you go

I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you

Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over?

Life
Will flash before my eyes
So scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side
And no one
Thinks they are to blame
Why can't we see
When we bleed we bleed the same?

I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you

Loneliness be over
When will this Loneliness be over?

Loneliness be over
When will this Loneliness be over?

[Sancor]

The lyrics may be simple often times, but that never is a reason to discard them. There are plenty poetry that relies on simple verse and diction to get across a message. That being said, the MESSAGE is usually what makes art great, and in auditory art a lot of that comes from the combination of sounds and lyrics (which would go to prove your point about Matt's vocals augmenting the songs).

You shouldn't disregard lyrics for being simplistic, but honestly evaluating the lyrics of a song is like evaluating ONLY the color scheme of a painting. Still, a lot of the message can be seen by the lyrics, and I think that a great deal of his songs have messages that to me at least are deep and resonate with a lot of power.

That being said some of my favorite lyrics would have to be Hoodoo, Deadstar, Starlight, Screenager, Citizen Erased, Plug in Baby, Escape, Endlessly, Falling Away With You, Ruled by Secrecy..
Er before I list all their discography I'll stop there.

One of my friends really is affected by Screenager's lyrics.. they kind of mirror a lot of what has happened to him.

[naget4music]

i cant tell if your being sarcastic
cause there pretty lame

Nah i do like radiohead...Im not being sarcastic...but everyone has different opinions

[Flynn]

Nah i do like radiohead...Im not being sarcastic...but everyone has different opinions

Megalomania
Showbiz
Hoodoo
Blackout

[naget4music]

i mean the starlight lyrics

and it does my head in how much its whored by people who arent really fans

Yeah i like the starlight...it does get a little annoying when played too much...but yeah. I like it...not as much as all the others...

Also remember...we are true fans :happy: haha

Lirics is the main for me, that's why all my favourite songs is my favourite songs by lirics: Hate this & I'll love you, Hoodoo (!!!). Space dementia. But there are a lot of translations of this words and that's why I still don't know exactly that 'space dementia' means. And alsou I like Falling away with you.

[anakaren]

my favorite song....I don´t know, I think that the best is Unintended, I love it!!!!!!!

[s3ker]

Bliss :rolleyes:

[QueenOfNerds]

"But I still want more
With the cuts and the bruises"

"don't kid yourself
and don't fool yourself
this life could be the last
and we're too young to see"

And

"Take off your disguise
I know that underneath
It's me"

I just love to sing the last one out really load.

[PlugInMonster]

Wash me away
Clean your body of me
Erase all the memories
They'll only bring us pain
And I've seen all I'll ever need

[PlugInMonster]

I think overall, Matt wrote his best lyrics on OoS.

"Your golden lies feed my world, in this forgotten space race under my control"

That's serious poetry.

[Pib]

To be fair, Origin was the only Muse album that had anything close to good lyrics.

[Black Absolution]

I think overall, Matt wrote his best lyrics on OoS.

"Your golden lies feed my world, in this forgotten space race under my control"

That's serious poetry.

i agree. exactly why it's my favorite album.

Wtf? I was referring to HCM. He doesn't say 'Your' in that version. I know this because I do.. you know.. listen to the actual song.

[pnrf]

One of my favorite lyrics of Muse.. is 'Plug In Baby'

I've exposed your lies, baby
The underneath is no big surprise
Now it's time for changing
And cleansing everything
To forget your love

My plug in baby
Crucifies my enemies
When I'm tired of giving
My plug in baby
In unbroken virgin realities
Is tired of living

Don't confuse
Baby you're gonna lose
Your own game
Change me
Replace the envying
To forget your love

My plug in baby
Crucifies my enemies
When I'm tired of giving
My plug in baby
In unbroken virgin realities
I'm tired of living

And I've seen your loving
But mine is gone
And I've been in trouble

[gocanux]

stretch it like a birthsqueeze.....best mental image ever

I'm an obstetrician, always try to play that song in the car if I'm going over to the hospital to deliver a baby! Yes, quite the mental image...

Warped and bewitched
Intend to erase
Whatever they say
These people are torn
Wild and bereft
Assassin is born"


Matt you freakin rock!:LOL:

[tails]

I'm an obstetrician, always try to play that song in the car if I'm going over to the hospital to deliver a baby! Yes, quite the mental image...

I want that song playing when I deliver my baby

:eek:

[Titan50]

Paranoid Android has got good lyrics..

[scifigeekgirl]

^^There's always one isn't there. Tch. :rolleyes:

[naget4music]

:happy: ah you can't go past bliss

[hysteria_bside]

"Chase your dreams away
Glass needles in the hay
The sun forgives the clouds
You are my holy shroud"

Those lyrics, along with the whispered delivery and accompanying tinkling of the music box is such a small underrated sound yet it is so epic at the same time!!! (from Eternally Missed btw ;))
__________________________________________________

"Destroy the spineless
Show me it's real
Wasting our last chance
To come away
Just break the silence
'Cause I'm drifting away, away from you "

Also i just love this last verse of New Born, it evokes such an amazing sense of urgeny and desperation it is amazing!!!

[LifeOfSydonia]

what is your favourite lyric/lyric-line?

is it witty, beautiful or you just love it?

tell about you favorit lyric/lyric!

[devonscreen]

My favorit: Citizen Erased.

Oh, and Invincible..
'and tonight, we can truly say together we're invincible!'

*melting*

[abomufc108]

Blackout

"This love's too good to last And I'm too old to dream"

Knights of cydonia

I'll show you a god, falls asleep on the job
How can we win, when fools can be kings?
Don't waste your time or time will waste you


Space Dementia

Space dementia in your eyes and
Peace will arise
And tear us apart
And make us meaningless again

[Kylee]

This
"I want the peace and joy in your mind."

and this
"Wash me away, clean your body of me. Erase all the memories. They will only bring us pain. And I've seen, all I'll ever need"

[Black Absolution]

Falling Away With you:
"Staying awake to chase a dream"

Blackout:
"Don't grow up too fast
And don't embrace the past
This life's too good to last
And I'm too young to care"

New Born:
"The love for what you hide
The Bitterness inside
Is growing like the new born"

Stockholm Syndrome:
"All to no avail"

Shine:
"You can't cry now there's nothing to feel
No one's noticed out loneliness"

probably more, all i can think of at the moment though.

[Vaxis]

I love all the lyrics, but these are my favorites...

"Hopelessly, I'll love you endlessly"

"She burns like the sun, and I can't look away,
She'll burn our horizons, make no mistake."

"You make me sick,
because I adore you so,
I love all the dirty tricks,
and twisted games you play,
on me."


"And I want you now, I want you now,
I'll feel my heart implode,
and I'm breaking out, escaping now,
feeling my faith erode."

[lensip max]

Unintended

"I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before"

And the last lines of Hoodoo.

[Puzzled Ale]

Sunburn:
I'll run forever, I can't face the shame (I feel quite identified with that line :$)

Space Dementia:
You'll make us wanna die
I'd cut your name in my heart
We'll destroy this world for you
I know you want me to... feel your pain

(That verse will always be special for me, I don't know why. I also noticed that Space Dementia is popular. That's interesting)

[glenndo4000]

Sunburn:
I'll run forever, I can't face the shame (I feel quite identified with that line :$)

Space Dementia:
You'll make us wanna die
I'd cut your name in my heart
We'll destroy this world for you
I know you want me to... feel your pain

(That verse will always be special for me, I don't know why. I also noticed that Space Dementia is popular. That's interesting)

Space Dementia is fucking amazing thats why. and all the lyrics in it are beautiful.

[Wrigley]

Chase your dreams away
Glass needles in the hay
The sun forgives the clouds
You are my holy shroud
Eternally Missed

The entire Hoodoo songs lyrics are one of the.. "no words can describe it"-Amazing. If you get what i mean.

Our golden skies feed my role
In this forgotten space race under my control
Who's returned from the dead?
Who remains?
Hyper Chondriac Music

I know the moment's near
And there's nothing we can do
Look through a faithless eye
Are you afraid to die?
Thoughts of a dying Atheist, because death is my greatest fear.

[forevermusic]

I love a large amount of Muse's lyrics, but the ones that immediately stick out are:

"And I've had recurring nightmares
That I was loved for who I am
And I missed the opportunity
To be a better man"
Hoodoo

"Hopelessly, I'll love you endlessly
Hopelessly, I'll give you everything
But I won't give you up
I won't let you down
And I won't leave you falling
But the moment never comes."
Endlessly

"Just break the silence
And I'm drifting away
Away from you..."
New Born

[Citizen Erased]

My favourite lines at the moment are (they change every few days):

Soldier's Poem

How could you send us so far away from home?
When you know damn well that this is wrong
I would still lay down my life for you

Invincible

There's no one like you in the universe

Endlessly

It's plain to see, it's trying to speak
Cherished reams, forever asleep

Darkshines

Passing by, you light up my darkest skies
You take only seconds to draw me in

Hate This And I'll Love You

You left us far behind,
So we all discard our souls.
And blaze through your skies,
So unafraid to die...

...And I'm getting strong in every way (just love the way it's sung :D)

Time Is Running Out

I wanted freedom
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted

Now that you know i'm trapped
Sense of elation
You'd never dream of
Breaking this fixation

[Kitsune]

I really like all Matt's lyrics, most of them anyway, but this is my favourites:

MOTP, 2nd verse:
Life will flash before my eyes
So scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side
And no one thinks they are to blame
Why can't we see
That when we bleed we bleed the same


MOYH, 2nd verse:
I saw a liquid control
That gives life to a soul
I hit my head on it and woke up to know
That I was all alone
Wearing just socks and a phone
Someone's screaming like their world might explode

[The_Poison]

I really like all Matt's lyrics, most of them anyway, but this is my favourites:

These are great, but there is also:

The first part of Citizen Erased

Stockholm Syndrome... all of it :)

Chorus of Sunburn

Last verse of Starlight

These are just the ones i can be bothered typing... I like pretty much all their lyrics really...

[manblue]

I wanted freedom
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted

[The_Poison]

I wanted freedom
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted

Classic.

[tails]

definitely lyrics that stuck out to me right away were in MOTP:

"And no one, thinks we are to blame. Why can't we see? When we bleed we bleed the same."

[Black Absolution]

definitely lyrics that stuck out to me right away were in MOTP:

"And no one, thinks we are to blame. Why can't we see? When we bleed we bleed the same."

or:

"When will this loneliness be over"

[Obi]

Also love the irony in Fury:

"We'll pray that there's no God to punish us."

[tails]

or:

"When will this loneliness be over"

yeah, thinking about it again basically i like all the lyrics in MOTP. that song in its entirety is just amazing...

Also love the irony in Fury:

"We'll pray that there's no God to punish us."

Oh that's a good one too. This might sound weird but I wish that I could put the opening riff of Fury into words somehow, it's just so powerful and dark...but describing it like that isn't even a 10th of what it is.

[QueenOfNerds]

Paradise comes at a price, that I am not prepared to pay.

[devonscreen]

And we'll pray that there's no God to punish us and make a fuss (Fury)

[sugarthumbfairy]

To have a favourite, you have to have unfavourites. I don't like unfavouritising stuff I like, even if you still like it. It's not your FAVOURITE then. It's favouritisation. I can't be favouritisationalist to songs I love... :eek: :eek: :$ *horror* I likes them ALL *nods*

[Hopix]

definitely lyrics that stuck out to me right away were in MOTP:

"And no one, thinks we are to blame. Why can't we see? When we bleed we bleed the same."

I compleletly agree.

Also No has mentioned TAB
"Our Freedom is Consuming Itself, And What We've Become, Is Contrary to What we Want, Take A Bow."

Pretty much all of Citezen Erased is just incredible,
"Break in, Teach Us to Cheat, To Lie, Cover Up, What Shouldn't Be Shown."
"Wash Me Away, Clean Your Body of Me, Erase All The Momeries, They'll Only Bring Us Pain, And I've Seen, All I'll Ever Need."

[Tr00jg]

Fury and Hoodoo definitely.

"And we'll pray that there's no god to punish us and make a fuss"

"I've recurring nightmares that I was loved for who I am and missed the opportunity to be a better man." - brilliant and poignant.

[Satin]

i love them all,
but especially "paradise comes at a price, that i am not prepared to pay"

[tails]

I compleletly agree.

Also No has mentioned TAB
"Our Freedom is Consuming Itself, And What We've Become, This Country we do What we Want, Take A Bow."

"Wash Me Away, Clean Your Body of Me, Erase All The Momeries, They'll Only Bring Us Pain, And I've Seen, All I'll Ever Need."

Oh of course, TAB has really strong and in-your-face lyrics. I mean "You'll burn in hell for your sins!" Can't get more up front than that. Also the verses are pretty intense too...

(And i think the lyrics are "is contrary to what we want" instead of "this country do what we want")

[f96pt]

Invincible

"Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be all right
Cause there's no one like you
In the universe

Don't be afraid
What your mind conceives
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight we can truly say
Together we're invincible"

;)

[Hopix]

Yeah when I first heard it I thought so too...then I realized it doesn't really make sense so I musewiki'd it later and was like oooooooooooooh!:LOL:

Wow. It sounds so much better with Contrary! lol. The song has a whole new meaning to me now!:D

[AT]

All the lyrics are good, some are brilliant (the reason why Muse stand out in the world of rock music), but 'Falling away with you' is sheer poetry.

[Nimpo46]

I've always thought the chorus for Fury is just brilliant.

Then Citizen Erased is amazing.

Hoodoo.

those three top the list for the best lyrics in my opinion.

[ryanbmuff]

I think the best is Nishe...

[Problemfanatique]

All of their songs have great lyrics.

But the lyrics in Hoodoo, Citizen Erased and Megalomania particularly stand out to me.

[tails]

I think the best is Nishe...

[Popelady]

hmm easily or glorious.. . probly just glorious. i mean dont close the door on what you adore? its simple but inspiring . . . or just a result of a very bored and/or needy soul

[Nimpo46]

hmm easily or glorious.. . probly just glorious. i mean dont close the door on what you adore? its simple but inspiring . . . or just a result of a very bored and/or needy soul

What country are you in? :wtf:

[fal]

"And the truth's unwinding
Scraping away at my mind
Please stop asking me to describe"

At around 2:50, then it goes into the chorus nice and slow, quiet. So powerful. So brilliant. Then the heavy riff, ahhhhhhhhh. Foam:)

[devonscreen]

Yeah... Citizen erased is a good song and awesome lyric

[jaconway88]

when the zetas fill the skies; it's just our leders in disguise - exo-politics
our freedom's consuming itself - take a bow
wearing just socks and a phone - map of your head
look through a faithless eye; are you afraid to die? - thoughts of a dying atheist

[Devon cream tea]

Please close your ears and try to look away! So you'll never hear a single word i say!

Cave! Love it!

[glucose]

Maybe Showbiz or Falling Down.

[muselovematt]

Citizen Erased, Glorious, Dead Star, Megalomania, Sing For Absolution, Map of the Problematique, Space Dementia. they are all good!

[devonscreen]

GLORIOUS!!!
:) :D

[BOOOOONUS PAAAAANTS]

ABSOLUTELY Falling Away with You, Fury, CE, Megalomania, and Muscle Museum.

[sugarthumbfairy]

Not exactly best but definitely one i like.
'Who you were, was so beautiful. Remember who, who you were'
Cos people change. Like if you liked someone once but they change from when you first knew them but you liked them then and just want them to be like that again. That's one of the most likely to make me cry lyrics ever, but maybe in a good way if that makes any sense.

[fusional]

I've always thought the chorus for Fury is just brilliant.

Then Citizen Erased is amazing.

Hoodoo.

those three top the list for the best lyrics in my opinion.

agreed on all accounts

[Wanted]

Map Of The Problematique hands down~

[abomufc108]

Citizen Erased
Take a bow
New Born
Space Dementia
Butterflies and Hurricanes
Knights of cydonia

[Muse=MyMuse]

Stockholm Syndrome - "Look to the stars, and let hope burn in your eyes"
Starlight - "And I'll never let you go, if you promise not to fade away, never fade away"
The Smallprint - "I'm the priest god never paid"

Butterflies and Hurricanes lyrics

[RiffandMagenta]

I suspect this question has been asked four hundred times before but, since I'm new, please indulge me...what are you favourite Muse lyrics? Which ones really touch you?

Here are some beautiful examples:

Don’t kid yourself and don’t fool yourself. This love’s too good last and I’m too old to dream. Don’t grow up to fast and don’t embrace the past. This love is too good to last and I’m too young to care.

There’s no justice in the world, and there never was.

Why can’t we see that we’re both to blame? And that when we bleed we bleed the same?

[Becca Of Cydonia]

I like those, too, I like;
Starlight, "I just wanted to hold you in my arms."
MotP, "When will this loneliness be over."
Invincible, "Tonight we can truly say, together, we're invincible."
Bliss, "Everything about you is so easy to love."
And New Born, "Soulless is everywhere."

[rainingradioheads]

I don't know if there's been a thread like this, but I suppose it could be similar to: "Favorite part of any Muse song..."

Anyways: "Come to be/How did it come to be?/Tied to a railroad/No love to set us free/Watch our souls fade away/And our bodies crumbling/Don't be afraid/I will take the blow for you."

For some reason I get chills every time I hear that. So beautiful...

[L.]

Why can’t we see that we’re both to blame? And that when we bleed we bleed the same?

Not to be pedantic... (now you know I'm gonna be :D)

but if you're talking about MOTP then your favourite lyrics are: "And no one / Thinks they are to blame / Why can't we see / That when we bleed we bleed the same

I don't know if there's been a thread like this, but I suppose it could be similar to: "Favorite part of any Muse song..."

Blackout and Sing For Absolution are my favs

[Clunge]

New Born is the only Muse song with good lyrics.

So I'll go with New Born.

[TastyBassRiff54]

All of the lyrics of... Blackout and Falling Away With You

Can't believe I'll be the first to post this...

For one moment/I wish you'd hold your stage/With no feelings at all/Open minded/I'm sure I used to be/so free...

Wash me away/Clean your body of me/Erase all the memories/They will only bring us pain/And I've seen, all I'll ever need...

[Blaz]

I've had recurring nightmares
That I was loved for who I am
And missed the opportunity
To be a better man

[pandaman37]

Don’t kid yourself and don’t fool yourself. This love’s too good last and I’m too old to dream. Don’t grow up to fast and don’t embrace the past. This love is too good to last and I’m too young to care.

i get goosebumps whenever i listen to blackout its beautiful.. and motp is amazing as well... i love comas lyrics as well
so deeply out of reach, for years feeling dead you can fall right out of bed
and dont even get me started on micro cuts. :LOL:

[Natalia]

Love the lyrics to:

Citizen Erased,

Glorious,

Hoodoo,

.....And about 50+ more MUSE songs.

I am sorry, but Matt has such an interesting mind, it seems that sometimes the lyrics give away the intellect he often tries to hide.

[m0hawk]

Endlessly. In all my limited musical knowledge, that song has the saddest yet most beautiful lyrics ever written. The chorus fits perfectly with the message that the lyrics try to convey, and when coupled with the string section in the 2nd and 3rd choruses, the song is just heartbreaking.

*sheds manly tears*

Sing for Absolution is also kind of creepily beautiful.

[m0hawk]

Love the lyrics to:

[adds]

"and we'll pray that theres no god" that instantly stuck in my head.
blackout of course.

and i really like how muse can write about Stockholm Syndrome. most other bands do songs about women and relationships but muse have to be different, and it is the best song ever "and this is, the last time i'll abandon you"

oh and hoodoo

[tails]

anyone mentioned starlight? :awesome:

so deep :'(

[What_the_Keck]

fav lyrics from any muse song? ummm . . . it's so hard to choose! they're all great and meaningful.

probably my favourite lyrics would have to be from Hate this and I'll love you
"so we all discard our souls, and blaze through your skies, so unafraid to die"

don't know why i like those lyrics they just get to me every time i hear them

HTAILY is a good song. One of my favorite's off of Showbiz fa sho.

I also like the lyrics "And I was born, to destroy you. And I am growing by the hour." The way Matt sings it make it sound so angsty and mean. I love it

[PuppetStrings]

Map of the Problematique, no doubt. The best lyrics.

[Couchy]

I wouldn't go with favourite but the "I have played in every toilet, but you still want to spoil it" part in Muscle Museum is pretty effed up. Gives me a chuckle every time.

I guess otherwise it would be Megalomania's "Paradise comes at a price that I am not prepared to pay". Stuck as my msn personal message for a while which means something. Actually that also has "The good news is, she can't have babies" bit which is bit weird....

[Chrisseh]

Mine is probably
the part leading onto the chorus in Feeling Good.. my signature. :D
Or t he "I won'et let you smother it" bit in Time is Running Out...

Or the chorus in plug-in baby...

D: TOO MANY CHOICES

[eegomberg]

Map of the Problematique, no doubt. The best lyrics.
I completely agree!

"Why can't we see, when we bleed we bleed the same."

The whole song is brilliant.

[SomeRandomPerson]

I like teh lyrics in MOTP and in Hoodoo as well; especially the "I've had recurring nightmares, I was loved for who I am and missed the opportunity to be a better man." deep stuff there. (might've messed up teh lyrics a bit :$)

But I also love teh lyrics in Escape and Ruled by Secrecy. I love those songs :awesome:

[ArrowSmith]

Butterflies & Hurricanes

[HaikuMarko]

Hmmm

this is hard one

I think City of Delusion's lyrics are the best in BHAR
On Absolution it's DEFINATELY Butterflies And Hurricanes

In OOS I think it's CItizen Erased

and on Showbiz I Think it's Unintended.

[shinyMor]

Am I the only one who likes the lyrics for DarkShines?
they are SO evil, and the way he sings it!

My mom called Muse "Horror Music". Made me LOL.:eek:

Also, Blackout and Endlessly and Hyper Music and Bliss. Hysteria, too.
everything is so beautiful and evil at the same time, for me it makes it real.

[petraenmylou]

I think DarkShines does have a good lyric,
But also butterflies and hurricanes,and Muscle Museum,pfff i think is just like all the lyrics hahahaha

[bellamyloverz]

i love all the lyric



some of the best for me pink ego box, sing for absolution, blackout, falling away with you , and bliss;)

[RedStar]

i've had recurring nightmares
that i was loved for who i am
and missed the opportunity
to be a better man

[gravity girl]

Hoodoo

[Qúentin Räikkönen]

Three words:

MIKE. ROW. KUTZ.

Hands are red with your blame
Megaphone screaming my name
Whimpers someone I should've loved
Souls weeping above

I've seen
What you're doing to me
Destroying puppet strings
To our souls

Micro waves me insane
A blade cuts into your brain
To sounds like forks on a plate
Blackboard scratched with hate

I've seen
What you're doing to me
Destroying puppet strings
To our souls

Amazing...now if only a normal human being could understand them without using a lyrics website.:(

[rainingradioheads]

Excecution Commentary. :LOL:

But seriously, Hoodoo, Blackout (which is greater than B&H for me, The Small Print (yes I'm the only one who thinks that), Micro Cuts, New Born, Hate This & I'll Love You, and Unintended. And Con-science. Mainly because I think it's gorgeous. :happy:

[adds]

i've had recurring nightmares

^This. Which is why he's right on the top of the "Celebrities i'd want to meet" list.

yes that's it. I've always thought that Matt was delivering his mind to us through his lyrics (and the way he sings and plays) and what I've recieved from him is so tremendous, He actually is the only celebrity I would like to speak with

[Animus]

i think falling away with you!!!!! and of course bliss, glorious, hoodoo, and yeah:musesign:

[mycorona135]

Blackout, Showbiz, Sober, Hate this and ill love you


but then again i'm a little bias towards oos and showbiz = / in the end i can't think of a muse song that has bad lyrics.

[Clunge]

New Born by a trillion miles.

[Samuel]

City of Delusion for me.

[Mrcookie]

Stockholm Syndrome:
This is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could.

Endlessly:
hopelessly I'll love you endlessly
hopelessly I'll give you everything

but I won't give you up
I won't let you down
and I won't leave you falling
If the moment ever comes

Unintended:
You could be the one who listens
to my deepest inquisitions
you should be
the one I'll always love

Glorious:
Touch my face
A hopeless embrace

Faith
It drives me away
But it turns me on
Like a stranger's love

Rockets through the universe
It fuels the lies and feeds the curse
Believes we could be
Glorious


And Map of the problematique has the most epic line ever:

Why can't we see
That when we bleed we bleed the same

Priceless

[Zemonstar]

I think Citizen Erased has the best lyrics. Then It would probably be Space Dementia

[Lonely Parking]

Not much love for KOC people :( I know most of its a bit daft but these lines are tops:

"And how can we win when fools can be kings" (or presidents, or prime ministers :facepalm:)

"Don't waste your time or time will waste you." :yesey:

This last line really speaks to me - maybe its cos I am older than many here and sometimes think "shite, where have the last 2/5/10 years gone". This line kind of made me re-evaluate my life, which sounds ultra-wankey but really its not. Gave me a serious kick up the arse and why I say that Muse changed my life.

Ok, i'll get off the couch now.

Absolutely Hodoo and Megalomania ;)

[Hopix]

I love the Guiding Light lyrics as well.

[Me Rug I Sty]

"and we'll PRAY, that there is no god"
I love the irony in Fury :D

[Dina F.K.K.]

basically, muse lyrics are one of the reasons why do i love muse. i love the lyrics in all their songs. some of my faves are glorious, cross pollination, redemption, take a bow, sing for absolution, unintended, ruled by secrecy,,,,

[mirtaisokay]

I love Knights Of Cydonia.
No one's gonna take me alive
The time has come to make things right
You and I must fight for our rights
You and I must fight to survive

[Becks]

Hoodoo will always be my favourite but Redemption is amazing.

"Staying awake to chase a dream" is one of my favorites. Hence the username.

[Wingardium LevioSIA]

Somehow I keep managing to ignore how good that line is, even though it's one of their best, and from one of my favourite Muse songs. Anyway, it is great. :yesey:

one of the greats has to be map of the problematique "why can't we see that when we bleed we bleed the same" or one of the of the older ones like "why does she break my fall and then break my heart" an't remember the song:D

Its The Groove.

My favourite is Cydonia maybe.
