Whats your favourite Muse lyric? ...

[glaciers_melting]

..... got to say mine is the Unintended chorus

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

:D

[CountDracula]

hate this and I'll love you... simply the best ;)

[seregon]

Ooooohhhh aahhhhhh

[Static Shadows]

I'm sure there's a thread for this somewhere.. but I can't be arsed to search for it! :LOL:

All of Citizen Erased. Especially the end bit:

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


oh and the classic: "It's happening soon, It's happening soon, It's scent has been blowing in my directshoon." :LOL:

[_Ed_]

Probably "and we'll pray that there's no God, to punish us"

[Static Shadows]

Probably "and we'll pray that there's no God, to punish us"
"...and make a fuss." :yesey::LOL:

[_Ed_]

"...and make a fuss." :yesey::LOL:
Haha, I left that bit out for a reason.

[Emaaa]

"this life could be the last
and we're too young to see"

i love it

[jamesdcfc121]

How can we win when fools can be kings?
Don't waste your time or time will waste you.


fools kings - its really so true
and i am going through exams atm so dont waste your time is also a really good lyrics atm

[victorialisa]

The lyrics of Blackout, wonderful !
+
" Don't waste your time or time will waste you".
" Paradise comes at a price that I am not prepared to pay"
" And I've had recurring nightmares, I was loved for who I am, and missed the opportunity to be a better man".
"Destroy demonocracy.":happy:

[Mad_Clown]

Fear and panic in the air, i want to be free, from desolation and despair..

OH YES!

[Mad_Clown]

And i feel, that everything i sow, has been swept away, well i refuse to let you go.

Double post lol

[MrPowell]

"And we'll be chasing a starlight"

So much depth, people don't read into it enough.




I Kid.

The fury chorus I guess.

[ryanbmuff]

Ooooohhhh aahhhhhh

LOL

You crack me up.

[Clunge]

New Born chorus.

'Destroy the spineless, tell me it's real, wasting our last chance to come away, just break the silence, 'cause I'm drifting away, away from you, OOOWHWHWPPHWHWPHWHWHAHAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! !!!!'.

[Fuzzypanda]

Exo-Politics

When the Zetas fill the skies,
Will our leaders tell us why,
Fully loaded satellites,
will conquer nothing but our minds.


Totally conspiracy theory inspired :D

[TastyBassRiff54]

Fear and panic in the air, i want to be free, from desolation and despair..

I AGREE :D amazing lyrics.


and i LOVE the lyrics to City of Delusion SO MUCH! :D

[aBzzzz]

As conspiracies unwind
Will you slam shut
Or free your mind
Or stay hypnotised

Cant say if this is my fav lyric but those 4 lines say a thing or two in this day and age dont it. PAINT YOUR OWN PICTURE - DONT ACCEPT A KODAK!!

:yesey:

[Megglen]

I think I may've already commented but I'll go again!

Number 1:
Starlight

Starlight
I will be chasing a starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Number 2:
Knights Of Cyndonia

I'll show you a god, who falls asleep on the job
How can we win, when fools can be kings?
(So true!!!)

Number 3:
Supermassive Black Hole

I thought I was a fool for no one
Ooh baby, I'm a fool for you

Number 4 (Yep! We're still going!):
Time Is Running Out

You're something beautiful
A contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

&

I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted


Number 5:
Nah! I've got no Number 5! I'll just say every single song of Muse's! They all rock! But those 4 are highlights!

[Gem]

I have 3 lines I love....

1. I don't want you to adore me, don't want you to ignore me...

2. Come ride with me through the vains of history, I'll show you how god falls asleep on the job...

3. Destroying puppet strings to our souls

<3

[Gloorious]

I love almost all of the lyrics... but here are my five favourites: :D

1. I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove I’ve made a big mistake

2. Hide from your family, they won't know you now
For all the holes in our souls host no thrills

3.
It rockets through the universe
It fuels the lies, it feeds the curse
We, too, could be glorious

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

5.
Sell, I'll sell your memories for 15 pounds per year
But you can keep the bad days

[ecos]

starlight or newborn:)

[beanworld]

Spiral Static

You're running out of time
As it grows in your mind [though that's possiby eye, not mind...]

oo, and Fury

We'll pray
that there's no god
to punish us
and make a fuss

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

:yesey: In fact, all of Hoodoo. It's such a powerful song

[Subl1minal]

As conspiracies unwind
Will you slam shut
Or free your mind
Or stay hypnotised



That is something everyone needs to ask themselves after watching the video from Matt's myspace!

''And our freedoms consuming itself''

So true...

''Don't waste your time or time will waste you''

Couldn't of said it any fuckin' better Matt!!

''How can we win when fools can be kings''

Yet again, so true!

[fr0zen]

1. SS Chorus
2. Glorious Chorus
3. All of MOTP
4. Fury Chorus
5. The little bits in Exo ppl have already mentioned

So great :D

[naget4music]

you see, this is one of the reasons i love muse...the lyrics
hmmm lets see

Starlight
Lets conspire to ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive
I think that soooo deep-beautiful lyrics

Unintended
You could be the one who listens
To my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I’ll always love
one word - awwwwww

Twin
Your gaze beams a hole into me
wow

Darkshines
Hold your hands up to your eyes again
Hide from the scary scenes
Suppress your fears
So be mine and your innocence
I will consume
love that one

and many more that i cant choose

[sebby aka pup]

muse lyrics are great....

1. breathe in deep and cleanse away ur sins and we'll prey tht theres no god to punish us and make a fuss
2. u could be my unintended choice to live my life extended u could be the one i'll always love - beautiful lyrics
3. best, u've got to best the best and u've got to change he worl and use this chance to be heard. your time is now. - so powerful, this always pumps me up

but all muse songs are great i think

[EratoSomaGirl]

hmmm....

Bliss
Hyper Music
Map of Your Head
Stockholm Syndrome
MoTP
Muscle Museum
Hoodoo

all brilliant, touching, depressing, amazing, beautiful...emotion inspiring.... response evoking.

They evoke a response from me I think is the best way to put it, because they don't all make me ecstatically happy! :rolleyes:

[InsertCreativeNameHere]

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

Without doubt the best thing Matt has ever written imo.

[Jay Bee]

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

'Faith, it drives me away
but it turns me on like a strangers love'

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

'Come to be
how did it come to be
tied to a railroad
no love to set us free'

[Priss77]

I think "falling away with you" is a very very beautifull songs... watch out this lyrics:

Staying awake to chase a dream
Tasting the air you're breathing in
I know I won't forget a thing
Promise to hold you close and pray

Watching the fantasies decay
Nothing will ever stay the same
And all of the love we threw away
And all of the hopes we've cherished fade

Making the same mistakes again
Making the same mistakes again

...:musesign:

[aMUSE me!]

I agree with Ed about the line from Fury's chorus just for how contradicting and ironic it is. "Pray that there's no god!"

My personal favourite probably is...off the top of my head:

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

[LuizaM]

Oh, there are just SO MANY great bits.

But I have to say:

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

- Hopeless time to roam
The distance to your home
Fades away to nowhere
How much are you worth
You can't come down to earth

- And I don't want you to adore me
Don't want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
Yeah, and I'll do it on my own

- The entire lyrics to Map of the Problematique

- The entire lyrics to Blackout

[aMUSE me!]

LUIZA! How could i forget about muscle museum lyrics?? Cheers.

[ChasingDreams]

Songs I think have spaz-worthy lyrics:

-Sing for Absolution
-Shine Acoustic
-Hoodoo
-Megalomania
-Glorious
-Space Dementia
-Citizen Erased

and I'll have to stop myself there :p

[Dragonrockstar88]

Fury Chorus "And we'll pray that there is no god, to punish us, to make a fuss"

The name of my band that I'm trying to get off the ground is a line from "Stockholm Syndrome": "She had a name"

[lucidity]

Lets conspire to ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive


+1 - I was gonna say that :p

NEW BORN
Destroy the spineless
Show me its real
Wasting our last chance
To come away
Just break a silence
Cause Im drifting away
Away from you

Take A Bow
And our freedom's consuming itself
What we've become
It's contrary to what we want

Ruled By Secrecy
Change in the air
They'll hide everywhere
No one knows who's in control

Butterflies & Hurricanes
Change everything you are
And everything you were
Your number has been called

Fights and battles have begun
Revenge will surely come
Your hard times are ahead

[naget4music]

+1 - I was gonna say that :p
[U]


Yeah i love that one. it did take me awhile to understand it

[¨*Starlight*¨]

Right now I'd have to say all of "Blackout".. Just reminding me to live my life while I still have it..

Don't grow up to fast, and don't embrace the past

This life's too good to last, and we're too young to care

This life could be the last, and we're too young to see

... Pure genious

[Enemy]

I'd say songs which have incredible lyrics throughout include:

Falling Away With You
Stockholm Syndrome
Shine
Blackout
Bliss
Citizen Erased
Muscle Museum
Time is Running Out

[Arc>angel]

I know the moments near
and there's nothing we can do
look through a faithless eye
are you afraid to die

deep!

all of Uno

[Vaarp]

I personally think that its Map Of Your Head;

I'm sick of feeling my soul
To people who'll never know
Just how purposeless and empty they've grown
Because the language confuses
like computers refuse to understand how I'm feeling today

I think it is trying to say that machines is takeing control over ourself and we are no longer the creative beings we once were. and that we are all the same. infact the creative side of the brain is getting more and more less used.

I think its a good song, with a good view. and u think about what Matt sings..

I rly like lyrics in blackout also, and ofc the lyris in Invicinble. All in All, Matt's Lyrics and songs are all good. they all have a meaning and a thing they want to show. that why he is a cravtive genius.

[Shlebee]

Ok, I'm just curious, but what are some of your guys' favorite lyrics from Muse?

Just to start it off, mine would have to be

"hands are red with your blame
megaphone screaming my name
whimpers someone i should've loved
souls weeping above"
-Micro Cuts.

GO!

:)

[Animus]

its on my sig their from easily:D

[Animus]

oh i like con science too!!! LOVE THOSE LYRICS!!! oh and i love falling away with you those are my top three picks!:LOL:

[Becks]

"let's conspire to ignite all the souls that would die just to feel alive"
"i'll be there as soon as i can but i'm busy mending broken pieces of the life i had before you"
"how can we win when fools can be kings"
"everything about you resonates happiness"
"we'll love and we'll hate and we'll die all to no avail"
"it's time we saw a miracle come on it's time for something biblical"

and pretty much all of hoodoo. but especially "i've had recurring nightmares that i was loved for who i am and missed the opportunity to be a better man. so deep!

and more but that's enough for now :LOL:


i think there's already a thread for this somewhere...

[alternaterealities]

Love most of the lyrics from Easily, especially "I just wanted to let you know, my mind refuses to let you go." When I first heard that line it appealed to me so much.
"Don't waste you time or time will waste you"
"Let's conspire to ignite all the souls that would die just to feel alive"
"For one moment, I wish you'd hold your stage with no feelings at all"
"Throw it all away, let's lose ourselves"
"Why can't we see that when we bleed we bleed the same"
"Take off your disguise, I know that underneath it's me"

That's all I can think of right now...I'll be back with more soon.:D

[Olly.]

There's already a thread that exists for this in songs and releases, gonna merge for you.

[parakiszer]

Don't waste your time or time will waste you
(this line makes me remember things or tasks i should do..lets say to study or do my homework) :p
i really wanna sing Bliss to my mom..but never have guts to do it..she's quite serious.:stunned:
Together we're invincible (its motivational)
So be mine and your innocence I will consume :D


they change all the time..depends on the situation.

[EasyTiger]

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

just cause its relatable and AWESOME 2 sing :D

[Ask]

All of Hoodoo. Especially:

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

All of Starlight but especially:

"My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive"

Falling Away With You. It's quite hard to point something specific out but i think this part is fantastic:

"Staying awake to chase a dream
Tasting the air you're breathing in
I hope I won't forget a thing"

The list could go on. Just one more. Sober. Perhaps a quite simpel song but i think it's really elegantly put.

"Royal Canadian blended,
the spicy aroma had mended me.
Matured for years and imported,
into my glass you poured it.
And you're the only reason that I remain unfrozen.
Suppose it stands to reason
that you would turn on me."

[Atheist'sLastThought]

There are so many...SO MANNNYYYYY. ;__;

But I'll have to go with Stockholm's Syndrome's "this is the last time I'll abandon you, and this is the last time I'll forget you, I wish I could"

as well as the whole of Hoodoo.

...oh, and the end of Citizen Erased. :yesey:
"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"

[Fillipa]

Pretty much everything of Muscle Museum, but especially the chorus:

"Can you see that I am needing begging for so much more than you could ever give.
And I don't want you to adore me, don't want you to ignore me when it pleases you.
And I'll do it on my own."

Of Plug in Baby:

"I've exposed your lies, baby,
the underneath's no big surprise."

and

"My Plug in Baby crucifies my enemies when I'm tired of giving."

I know it's somehow cheesy but I love this line:

"Hopelessly I love you endlessly"

The questions of Hyper Music:

"Who's returned from the dead. Who remains?
Who really cares anymore? Who restrains?"

And of course

"Declaaaaaare this an emergency, come on and spread a sense of urgency" :)

[mikesta707]

and I will avenge... justify my reasons.. with your bloood

[MariaSTHLM]

All time favourite and often used: "paradise comes at a price that I am not prepared to pay"

"I don't love you and I never did
I don't love you and I never will"

"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"

"Look to the stars
Let hope burn in your eyes
And we'll love and we'll hate and we'll die
All to no avail, all to no avail
This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is
The last time I'll forget you
I wish I could"

[Problemfanatique]

'You will not rest or settle for less until you guzzle and squander what's left'

'Why can't you see that when we bleed we bleed the same?'

'Tied to a railroad, no love to set us free'

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

'Our freedom's consuming itself. What we've become is contrary to what we want.'

'How could you send us so far away from home when you know damn well this is wrong?'

'Touch the divine as we fall in line'

'Don't your waste time or time will waste you'.

'So be mine and your innocence, I will consume'.

'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'.

'Take off your disguise I know that underneath it's me'.

'What were we built for? could someone tell me please'.

'Our wrongs remain unrectified and our souls won't be exhumed'

'Don't grow up too fast and don't embrace the past'

'Look through a faithless eye- are you afraid to die?'

'Lets conspire to ignite all the souls that would die just to feel alive'.

'Forcing me to strive to be endlessly cold within and dreaming I'm alive'

..to list a few. :LOL:

[shiro]

Lyrics from Falling away with you - So poignant. Would have had it played at my late boyfriends funeral but his estranged wife chose something else (that was crap sadly) but we wont go there.

[Googoogee1]

i just really really love the chorus parts to sing for absolution and fury..the way matthew sings them and just the power of the lyrics...

"Breathe in deep, and cleanse away our sins. And well pray that theres no god to punish us and make a fuss."

"Sing for absolution, i will be singing. Falling from your grace."

Ooooooooh Yeah :eyebrows:

[nevermind572]

Blackout has never been my favorite song but it has great lyrics come to think of it.

don't kid yourself
and don't fool yourself
this love's too good to last
and i'm too old to dream

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

[mappingtheproblamatique]

generally i love all lyrics in muse songs but if i had to choose my faves outta them all..

Come ride with me
Through the veins of history
I'll show you a god who falls asleep on the job
How can we win, when fools can be kings?
Don't waste your time or time will waste you

Koc

Open the skies over me
I am waiting patiently
I'll wait for the sign

As conspiracies unwind
Will you slam shut or free your mind
Or stay hypnotised

When the Zetas fill the skies
Will our leaders tell us why
Fully loaded satellites
Will conquer nothing but our minds

But I'm waiting patiently
I'll wait for the sign

Exo-politics

all of assassin

This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is
The last time I'll forget you
I wish I could

Stockholm syndrome

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I don’t want you to adore me
Don’t want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And I’ll do it on my own

I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove I’ve made a big mistake
Too long trying to resist it
You’ve just gone and missed it
It’s escaped your world

Muscle Museum

[mappingtheproblamatique]

She burns like the sun

And she'll burn our horizons

[BassDementia]

there's a lot but

megalomania - the good news is she can't have babies, and won't accept gifts from me, what are they for? they'll just grow up and break the laws you loved

weird but great



also - micro cuts - well u can't really understand much of it
- you fucking motherfucker
- execution commentary

[Muse_Fan21]

i just love the intense build up... I will take the blow for you


Then it all goes quiet and you get the most beautiful sound from the piano and the most beautiful lyrics from Matt...

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

especially the Live At Wembley On the HAARP DVD

Just pure :happy:ness

[Ionnas]

"And no one
Thinks they are to blame
why can't we see
When we bleed we bleed the same?"

[Becks]

i want a new game to play

actually all of megalomania.

[tankoman]

You used to be everything to me
And now you're tired of fighting
Tired of fighting,
Fighting yourself

[New Born Lee]

Spiral Static, Escape, Blackout, Ruled by Secrecy and Hoodoo.

Those are the best Muse songs lyrics-wise imo.

[DyingAtheist]

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

"And this is the end, the end this is the end of the World"

Chorus to Stockholm Syndrome

[PolyphonicMuser]

"because there language confuses like computers refuse to understand how I am feeling today"

TEE HEE!! AWESOME train of thought lyrics.

[nohopeinfear]

The closing lyrics to "Hoodoo" always stick with me...

"I've had recurring nightmares, that I was loved for who I am and missed the oppurtunity, to be the better man"

:awesome:

[Counterpoint.]

Oh god, there are too many! Here are the first that come to mind...

All of Stockholm Syndrome
All of Hysteria
All of Citizen Erased
All of Apocalypse Please
All of Ruled by Secrecy

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.- Knights of Cydonia

It rockets through the universe
It fuels the lies, it feeds the curse
And we too could be glorious- Glorious

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

So confused,
when I'm lost in the groove- The Groove

Dark shines
Bringing me down
Making my heart feel sore
'Cause it's good- Darkshines

She burns like the sun
And I can't look away
And she'll burn our horizons make no mistake- Sunburn

[lalalive]

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


This. My favorite lyric ever.

"Let your inhibitions go, make every touch electrical"

and

"I'm sure I heard you sigh, floating in-between, where our worlds collide"

Nothing spectacular. I know there are better ones. But those are special to me.

[rainingradioheads]

I like the lyrics to The Small Print.

No, I'm serious.

"Sell, and I'll sell your memories
For 15 pounds per year
But you can keep the bad days"

It's just awesome to me. :$

[NeonBomb]

Paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay

:yesey:

[nohopeinfear]

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 blaine cuts in your brain
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


:awesome: :awesome:

[top hat]

like a broken dam, you're empty
and all that's left are the sticks and stones
that were built by other people
:awesome:

[Qúentin Räikkönen]

Pretty much every word of Hoodoo. Their best song lyric-wise, definitely.

Come into my life
Regress into a dream
We will hide
Build a new reality
Draw another picture
Of the life you could have had
Follow your instincts
And choose the other path

You should never be afraid
You're protected from trouble and pain
Why, why is this a crisis in your eyes again

Come to be
How did it come to be
Tied to a railroad
No love to set us free
Watch our souls fade away
Let our bodies crumble away
Don't be afraid

I will take the blow for you

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

[Atheist'sLastThought]

Pretty much every word of Hoodoo. Their best song lyric-wise, definitely.

...

Totally agree with you. First time I read the lyrics to the song, I was like holy foshizzle this is the best piece ever written.
And I still think that. :$

[Bloodpixie]

Darkshines:

Hold your hands up to your eyes again
Hide from the scary scenes
Suppress your fears
So be mine and your innocence I will consume


Geez that part sends shivers down my spine every time matt sings that.

[schneck]

Sing for Absolution:
Tiptoe to your room
A starlight in the gloom
I only dream of you
And you never knew

Thoughts of a Dying Atheist:
And I know you're in this room
I'm sure I heard you sigh

The Small Print:
Sell I'll sell your memories
For 15 pounds per year
But just the good days

Just break the silence - from New Born

Megalomania:
Paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Could someone tell me please?

Falling Down:
And fifteen thousand people scream
They were all begging for your dream

Whole Starlight and Map of the Problematique lyrics, especially
Life will flash before my eyes
So scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side

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

From B-Sides, Fury and Crying Shame choruses

[Becks]

Pretty much every word of Hoodoo. Their best song lyric-wise, definitely.

Come into my life
Regress into a dream
We will hide
Build a new reality
Draw another picture
Of the life you could have had
Follow your instincts
And choose the other path

You should never be afraid
You're protected from trouble and pain
Why, why is this a crisis in your eyes again

Come to be
How did it come to be
Tied to a railroad
No love to set us free
Watch our souls fade away
Let our bodies crumble away
Don't be afraid

I will take the blow for you

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

+1,000,000,000,000,000,000

:awesome: I heart Hoodoo.

[Boris]

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

Fury.

[Ahkmed]

I have to agree with everyone on Hoodoo. Those are some of the best lyrics ever. Along with CE, Bliss,Blackout, and FAWY. Those are the songs I listen to and always think how amazing the lyrics are. Just brilliant really!

[deisegirl]

'Tied to a railroad, no love to set us free!'

'Destroying puppet strings to our souls'

'You make me sick
Because I adore you so'

'Ignorance pulls
Apostasy and apathy still rules'

And I'll stop here as otherwise I'll just quote endlessly...

[gunnpj01]

One of the best:

"I've had recurring nightmares"

From Hoodoo

Just the way he sings it :)

[exeryan]

Humm there's so many.. so hard to choose but i picked up these:

and I'll feel my world crumbling
I'll feel my life crumbling
I'll feel my soul crumbling away
and falling away
falling away with you

And you used to be everything to me
And now you're tired of fighting
Tired of fighting
Fighting yourself

Too broken to belong
too weak to sing along
I'll comfort you my friend
Helping you to
Blow it all away

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

Breathe in deep, and cleanse away our sins
And we'll pray that there's no God
To punish us and make a fuss

[PIUdancer72]

"Butterflies and Hurricanes"

Change everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called

Fights and battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

Best you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
your time is now

Change everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called

Fights and battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

Best you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
your time is now

Don't let yourself down
don't let yourself go
your last chance has arrived

Best you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
your time is now

[johanna23]

Hold your hands
Up to your eyes again
Hide from the scary scenes
Surpress your fears
So be mine
And your innocence
I will consume

[OnceUponAParadox]

Muscle Museum... oddly this is what I relate to the most in their lyrics:

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Than you could ever give
And I dont want you to adore me
Dont want you to ignore me
When it pleases you
And Ill do it on my own

But the coolest lyrics are from Micro Cuts:

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

[MattXXI]

I just want to let you know
my mind refuses to let you go
I want to hypnotize you so
you will remember me.

Give me all the peace and joy in your mind.

Wash me away
clean your body of me
erase all the memories

Don't waste your time or time will waste you.

Fear and panic in the air
I want to be free from desolation and despair.

and

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 cant we see
that when we bleed we bleed the same.

You used to be everything to me
but now your tired of fighting.

You make me sick
because I adore you so
I love all the dirty tricks
twisted games you play
on meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

You could've been number one
And you could've ruled the whole world
And we could've had so much fun
But you blew it away

Who you were
Was so beautiful
Remember who... who you were


just to name a few.

[JakeLulz]

"I wish i could"

Stockholm Syndrome is really powerful.

[Wind Sorcerer]

Hate this and I'll love you and CE are my faves.:)

[Afro Giraffe]

Pretty much all of falling away with you but my fav bit is:

I can't remember when it was good
moments of happiness elude
maybe I just misunderstood

all of the love we left behind
watching the flash backs intertwine
memories I will never find
:)

[Joanna Th]

butterflies and hurricanes

Best you`ve got to be the best
you`ve got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard

the song always give me hope, when my life is going downhill

[Jack Masters]

I think this is fresh. If it's not please close this thread down. I did ask what was the BEST lyric not YOUR favourite.

If I get enough responses I'll do a poll.

[vico0527]

for me i would say "fat cats should have a heart attack" :awesome:

[Cross-pollinator]

How can we win when fools can be kings.

OR

She burns like the sun, and I can't look away.

[Grim Oswald]

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

[MattXXI]

Breath in deep
and cleanse away our sins
and we'll pray that there's no god
to punish us and make a fuss.

Yup. :)

[Hopix]

The Paranoia is in Bloom, the PR Transmissions will resume, They'll try to push drugs to keep us all dumbed down so that we, will never see the Truth around.

[Beata]

Uprising ! :D I love lyric in Uprising :rolleyes:

[mrs_bellamy_]

Paradise comes at a price

[Hopix]

Paradise comes at a price

That I am not prepared to pay.

What are we built for, Will someone please tell me?

Agreed, bloody awesome lyrics.

[Espectro Cuatro]

Take off your disguise... / I know that underneath, it's me.

[Raiko]

Any of the four lyrics in my Signature. I know 2 users above have already quoted a couple of them (Hoodoo, Megalomania).

[Hopix]

Take off your disguise... / I know that underneath, it's me.

That's some weird lyric, love it.

[CarrieB]

First one that comes to mind is "when we bleed we bleed the same" - I've always found that quite goosebumpy and poignant.

[CarrieB]

Take off your disguise... / I know that underneath, it's me.

Which song is that from?

[L.]

Which song is that from?

Megalomania

[CarrieB]

The Paranoia is in Bloom, the PR Transmissions will resume, They'll try to push drugs to keep us all dumbed down so that we, will never see the Truth around.

What drugs do you think he is referring to? Maybe that's a prediction.

[CarrieB]

Megalomania

Oh okay thanks - I will relisten!:)

I did ask what was the BEST lyric not YOUR favourite.



How can anyone choose the best, it's got to be people's favourite surely, the choice is completely subjective.

[m0hawk]

Useless device; It won't suffice.
I want a new game to play.
When I am gone, it won't be long,
Before I disturb you in the dark

OR

Breathe in deep and cleanse away our sins
And we'll pray that there's no God
To punish us and make a fuss

OR

This is the last time I'll abandon you
And this is the last time I'll forget you
I wish I could

I CANT DECIDE! :D

[Anxyous]

Matt's best line must be:

Don't waste your time,
or time will waste you

Blackout has great lyrics all the way through though...

[admat97]

Useless device; It won't suffice.
I want a new game to play.


Yes...I think this is the best. It makes me short of breath. I don't know why.

[CarrieB]

Lots of votes for Megalomania then! Very random!

I'm not putting this through but:

What are they for?
They`ll just grow up and break the laws you`ve loved



:LOL:

Though it's not as bad as that, there are elements of insight there, especially for a young man who has never fathered any children himself! Quite a sad lyric though!:(

When I am gone, it won't be long before I disturb you in the dark:eek:

Scary!:LOL:

I'm not putting that through as best ever either but just had to comment!

The good news is she can't have babies is pretty evil!:LOL:

I think this song is an amalgamation of lots of different random thoughts, rather bitter, selfish ones which we all have at times, usually for good reason.

Still have to think about the lyrics I think are best, though, at the moment, the Blackout lyrics. Pretty profound stuff and then there's Sing for Absolution and Hoodoo as whole songs.

[Hopix]

Take off your disguise... / I know that underneath, it's me.

Which song is that from?

Megalomania

Re-listened. Only just realised its only the feckin chorus! :facepalm:

I've been listening to the song since it came out and I've only just got the chorus!

[CarrieB]

The lyrics to Map of Your Head have to be in there and Unintended because they're so lovely, and Escape.

[Futurellama]

Your death creates success.

[LTmusefan]

Uprising ! :D I love lyric in Uprising :rolleyes:

agreed, best lyrics i've heard in a while. i'm a big fan of the song btw

[CarrieB]

Your death creates success.
you're working so hard
and never in charge


I like this one best! Though it's not hugely innovative, it means something! You can almost understand this guy losing it and going ballistic! Kind of modern version of "I don't like Mondays"!:LOL: That was the first song I ever bought btw! Ruled by Secrecy is a lot more classy. I don't like Mondays is probably more famous though!

[JennaFoxLives]

Hyper Music has the best lyric.

[CarpetBomber]

So here it is again
Rape and pillage Prudence
To win the public vote...


And Delta comes again
And her masks are shifting like a chameleon
Someone tell me why she breaks my fall
And then breaks my heart.

Both from the brilliant 'The Groove'.

[CarpetBomber]

Just realised you said 'lyric' and not 'half the words to a song' :p

[lukester911]

fuck you!
fuck you!
fuck- fuck- fucker!
yabadeeeeeeeeeyabadabadeeeeee
yabadeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEE- MOTHERFUCKER!

[slipperypoo]

Like a broken dam you're empty,
And all that's left is sticks and stones...

Pretty cool, methinks.

[Jay Bee]

I'll hide from the world behind a broken frame, and i'll run forever, I can't face the shame

[Citizen_Eraser]

That's some weird lyric, love it.

Yea Muse was pretty deep back in the OoS era. Started declining slightly with absolution, black holes had it drop off...of course I'm only speaking lyrically. Musically they've improved and are always doing something new.

[Citizen_Eraser]

Hoodoo for song with best lyrics...its close with a few others. I couldn't say what specific lyric is the best. Probably the final part, the calm after the epic storm.

[muoasise]

I think, it's "WHO'S RETURNED BACK FROM THE DEAD" from Hyper Music ;)

[Azulmono55]

IMO opinion the best lyrics in a muse song (or any song I can remember for that mattter) are:

How can we win
When fools can be kings
Don't waste your time
or time will waste you

But I think my favourite atm is:

But I'll still take all the blame
Cos you and me are both one and the same
And it's driving me mad

As long as the beginning of Escape is played with it. Kinda reminds me of me :(

[ben allen]

"fuckinggg lil fuccccckkkkkeeerrrr YYEAAAHHHH wooooooo biirds flying high you know how i feel!"- drunk live feeling good


"JUST TO SPIT IN YOUR FACE"- hyper music


"they make me, make me dream yor dreams
they make me, make me scream your screams" - showbiz


seriously can not wait for friday!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Hopix]

Loving the Futurism lyrics.

"Ignorance pulls
Apostasy and apathy still rules"

[Ril]

I think it's

Get the axe
Get the flan in the face
The flan in the face
The flan in the face
Dance you fucker dance you fucker
Don't you dare
Don't you dare
Don't you flan in the face

[New Born Lee]

Hoodoo has the best lyrics of any Muse song imo.

[Moriah]

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

:yesey:

[interpolpirate]

"I have played in every toilet"

obviously.

[Ril]

"I have played in every toilet"

obviously.

And he made a big mistake. ;)

[Dispatch Absolution]

Fear
and panic in the air,
I want to be free from desolation and despair

Life will flash before my eyes,
so scattered and lost
I want to touch the other side


:D what a great song..

also..

Look through a faithless eye,
are you afraid to die.. YEEEEAAEEAAAH!!

[Apocalypse plz]

Loose control, and increasing pace. warped and bewitched time to erase, watever they say, these people are torn wild and bereft, assassin is born.

[lensip max]

I bet it's turned up in this thread already but I cba going back (all of) three pages to check. The last lines of Hoodoo. They pretty much sum up my life this year.




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

[Twiggeh]

"Falling down....now my world is upside down, yeah

I'm heading straight for the clouds"

[DownAndOut]

"I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it" ;)

[caitlin_f]

"I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it" ;)

to prooove i made a, big mistake :)

[Psyche]

Hoodoo and Map of the Problematique are a given.. brilliant lyrics:happy:

The Easily lyrics seem really poingnant to me:happy:

Let you inhibitions go
Make every touch electrical
When you're feeling beautiful,
Will you remember me?

I want to touch you deep inside,
And find the secrets that you hide,
When your fears are cast aside,
Will you remember me?

I just want to let you know
My mind refuses to let you go
I wanna hypnotise you so
You will remember me

[olla86]

I fond of I Belong To You:yesey:

[Raiko]

"Falling down....now my world is upside down, yeah

I'm heading straight for the clouds"
That's a really good one actually. One of my favourite Muse songs and I didn't think of it.

[razmupp]

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

Gets me every time, this one...

[Twiggeh]

That's a really good one actually. One of my favourite Muse songs and I didn't think of it.

I can understand why somebody wouldn't like the lyrics, but I really think those last lines are really beautiful.

[musestu]

Spread Spread our codes to the stars you must rescue us all

[fictionmaster]

"The good news is she can't have babies" is still a very heavy line...

[Ril]

"The good news is she can't have babies" is still a very heavy line...

Hehe yeah that is a good one. Brings back loads of memories for me haha! :LOL:

[fictionmaster]

I also always liked this one:

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

(BTW: The first times I always heard it in only one line: "And my mind please stop asking me to describe")

[fictionmaster]

But one of my favorite lines is still:
"You make me sick because I adore you so"

[I, Prada Shoes]

I think it's

Get the axe
Get the flan in the face
The flan in the face
The flan in the face
Dance you fucker dance you fucker
Don't you dare
Don't you dare
Don't you flan in the face
This gets my vote too.

[alternaterealities]

I also always liked this one:

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

(BTW: The first times I always heard it in only one line: "And my mind please stop asking me to describe")

Wow I only just found out thats its not that line.

Loooove that part of Citizen Erased. :happy:

[mycorona135]

+1 for megalomania lyrics.

i also love...


Controlling my feelings for too long...

[CMonino]

Matt's best line must be:

Don't waste your time,
or time will waste you

Blackout has great lyrics all the way through though...

That's Shakespeare dood

[Mounta1nGoat]

That's Shakespeare dood
"COME IN MY CAVE!!!!!!!!!!!"

Lol
For some reason I'm obsessed with "It could be wrong, could be wrong".

[Wicked Annabella]

Falling down
Now the world is upside down
I’m heading straight for the clouds
:)

[Hopix]

I think my new "fav lyric ever" is

'Aping My Soul, You Stole My Overture, Trapped in Gods program, Oh I Can't Escape.'

[nellA]

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

[Raiko]

I really like that last line in Citizen Erased, but it does seem to sprout from almost nothing. It's basically...

Forget about me
forget about us.
I've see bad things.

:stunned:

[Massamused]

I'm hungry, for some onions.

[Gem]

I've merged the favourite muse lyrics and best muse lyrics thread as I think most people use them as one and the same. Cheers.

[lukeskymac]

New Born chorus.

'Destroy the spineless, tell me it's real, wasting our last chance to come away, just break the silence, 'cause I'm drifting away, away from you, OOOWHWHWPPHWHWPHWHWHAHAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! !!!!'.

WINNER

[Wingardium LevioSIA]

I really like that last line in Citizen Erased, but it does seem to sprout from almost nothing. It's basically...

Forget about me
forget about us.
I've see bad things.

:stunned:

A little while ago somebody was suggesting that Resistance could fit into the interlude of Citizen Erased, as the beginning and ending of Resistance musically match that interlude, and lyrically it could fill in the gap.

But it could all be a coincidence. :p


And on the subject of Resistance, I think the chorus is great:
"Love is our resistance
They'll keep us apart and they won't stop breaking us down
Hold me
Our lips must always be sealed"

[Tazman]

Probably Exogenesis: Symphony Part 2 (Corss-Pollination)

Spread, our codes to the stars,
You can rescue us all,
Spread our codes to the stars,
You must rescue us all,
Tell us, what is your final wish?
Now we know you can never return,
Tell us, what is your final wish?
We will tell it to the world

Not because it means anything to me, but because it sends shivers up my spine at how epic it is.

[Big Jim]

Don't waste your time or time will waste you

[Couchy]

lol after reading the first page I can tell I won't be able to choose just one

I'll go with Fury's "And we'll pray there is no god, to punish us, and make a fuss" seeing as that's what I'm likin at the moment, but there are tonnes of others that are awesome. I might even say the "Counterbalance this commotion, we're not droplets in the ocean" part of Unnatural Selection just because of the awesomeness of the melody... Actually lets just go with Unnatural Selections chorus as well. is cool and whatnot

[abomufc108]

Escape's into

[Espectro Cuatro]

I've changed my mind... "You are my Muuuuuu- [FRENCH INTERLUDE] ...~se" is officially the best lyric ever written. :awesome:

'Destroy the spineless, tell me it's real, wasting our last chance to come away, just break the silence, 'cause I'm drifting away, away from you, OOOWHWHWPPHWHWPHWHWHAHAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! !!!!'.

It's "show me it's real"

[abomufc108]

i like Newborn's lyrics also like Plug in baby lyrics

but as a whole song Muscle Museum have the best lyrics

[allovicky]

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

The sunshine, trapped in our hearts, it could rise again :eek:
So beautiful

[yourunintended]

"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" :happy:

[Lemonpiepie]

"Counter balance this commotion
We're not droplets in the ocean"



"The night has reached it's end
We can't pretend
We must run
We must run
Its time to run"

[Natural_Disaster]

'Let's start over again
Why can’t we start it over again?
Just let us start it over again
And we’ll be good
This time we’ll get it –
Get it right
It’s our last chance
To forgive ourselves'

The most beautiful lyrics ever :happy:

[LTmusefan]

personally, one of the reasons i love uprising so much is the lyrics and i love this lyric; it is one of my faves:

"Interchanging mind control
Come let the revolution take its toll if you could
Flick the switch and open your third eye, you'd see that
We should never be afraid to die
(So come on!)"

[I, Prada Shoes]

At the moment its

To me it is strange, this feeling is strange


The lyrics themselves aren't that great, but the way he sings them matches perfectly with their meaning. Like he's really out of breath, and flustered and confused or somethin'. Plus I love the song.

[Optimus Reim]

"I will be singing, and falling from your grace"

Mainly because I can picture it.

It'll change tomorrow though.

[USofE]

"
Paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Could someone tell me please

The good news is, she can't have babies
And won't accept gifts from me
What are they for?
They'll just grow up, and break the laws you've loved

Take off your disguise
I know that underneath it's me

Useless device, it won't suffice
I want a new game to play
When I am gone
It won't be long, before I disturb you in the dark

Paradise comes at a price
That I am not prepared to pay
What were we built for?
Will someone tell me please

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

I know your in this room I'm sure I heard you sigh, floating in between where our worlds collide!

I've gotta say, those highlighted lyrics along with the opening lines have to be my favourite Muse lyrics ever.

[V"!muse!"V]

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

[I, Prada Shoes]

In terms of songs as wholes, Apocalypse Please has my favourite Muse lyrics.

[unknown2936]

Megalomania-Paradise comes at a price that i am not prepared to pay
Apocalypse Please-Come on its time we saw a miracle, come on its time for something biblical
Unnatural Selection-Dedication to a new age is this the end of destruction and rampage

[Davinq]

Stretch it like a birth squeeze. :awesome:

But seriously, this:

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

Deepest Muse lyric ever, hands down, no competition.

[Priest God Never Paid]

There are many Muse lyrics that I love, that this lyric from "Fury" is above 'em all:

And we'll pray that there's no God

The most symmetrical antithesis.

[dead0citizen]

my fav are on Uprising: "The fat cat has a heart attack"LOL. Joking
my favourite are all the lyrics in Knights of Cydonia.

[Jupiter_Moonchild]

Too many good ones to mention but these are the ones that give me a shiver down my spine every time I hear them.

"Take off your disguise, I know that underneath, it's me."

"and I've been in trouble wooooaaaaa!"

"I don't want you to adore me, don't want you to ignore me, when it pleases you."

"I've had recurring nightmares, that I was loved for who I am...."

"There's no justice in the world, and there never was" <--fecking true that!

"And forcing our darkest souls to unfold, and pushing us into self destruction."

And all time knee trembler is: "Make me dream your dreams, make me scream your screams!"

Hope I didn't bore you with all that.

[Hopix]

Actually I thing the lyrics of Soldier's Poem are incredibly beautiful.

"Throw it all away,
Let's lose our selves,
'cause there's no one left for us to blame,
It's a shame, we're all dying,
And do you think you deserve your freedom?"

[Jupiter_Moonchild]

Actually I thing the lyrics of Soldier's Poem are incredibly beautiful.

"Throw it all away,
Let's lose our selves,
'cause there's no one left for us to blame,
It's a shame, we're all dying,
And do you think you deserve your freedom?"

That whole song is just perfectly poignant.

[LifeOfSydonia]

My favourite lyrics is the lyrics for Hoodoo :)
Simple and beautiful.

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

[miss_meadows]

My favourite lyrics is the lyrics for 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's my favourite as well!

[tabeykat]

Map of your head.

I'm sick of feeling my soul
To people who'll never know
Just how purposeless and empty they've grown
Because the language confuses like computers
refuse to understand how I'm feeling today

Fits my general mood

[Gothcydonia]

"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"!

(BLISS)

[Kirby]

All of Showbiz. Or Muscle Museum. Or Bliss. :)

[apap3rplat3]

I'll think of my all time favorites later but at the moment this is stuck in my head:

"How could you send us so far away from home when you know that this is wrong. I will still lay down my life for you. And do you think you deserve your freedom? No I don't think you do."

The bolded part especially. Such a powerful line that really gets to me. :(

[Jupiter_Moonchild]

"There's no justice in the world, and there never was"
That line gives me goosebumps.

[Kirby]

"There's no justice in the world, and there never was"

Seriously I can be bundled up in my ski jacket... But listening to most of that song gives me major chills.

[NatalieTalksTooMuch]

maybe it's just because i just listened to "the groove" about 5 times almost in succession, but i LOVE "sooooo confuuuuuused....when you're lost in the groove"

along with SUNBURN most definitely and BLISS!!

and probably a few more, but those were the only one's i could think of right now!

[Riveon]

I love "Who will take the prize and who will take the fall?"

[miss_meadows]

Another favourite of mine: "And paradise comes at a price I'm not prepared to pay"

along with the whole "Megalomania" myrics, I love that song.

[mine_]

"The sunshine trapped in our hearts, it could rise again. But I'm lost, crushed, cold and confused with no guiding light left inside. You were my guiding light"

i used to always skip the song, then it listened to it closely and loved it. its been on repeat since.

[ProblematiqueHurricane]

The simplicity, but sheer beauty of Exogenesis: Part 3 (Redemption) blows me away everytime. I don't know. The way it is sung is gorgeous, and I guess that might affect these being my favourite lyrics.

'Let's start over again
Why can't we start it over again
Just let us start it over again
And we'll be good
This time we'll get it
Get it right
It's our last chance
To forgive ourselves'

:'(

Yeah, I don't know what it is. If you just say the words it doesn't have the same effect, but when sung with those harmonies it just gets you right in the shiver nerve.

[aussiewho]

I absolutely love:

''Staying awake to chase a dream,
Tasting the air you're breathing in;
I hope I won't forget a thing..

Promise to hold you close and pray,
Watching the fantasies decay;
Nothing will ever stay the same.'' [Falling Away With You]

That and Hoodoo are probably my favourite Muse songs. Guiding Light still manages to make me cry a tad.
:'(

[Chocolate E. Clare]

"hide from the mirror, the cracks and the memories
hide from your family they wont know you now"

dont know why but i just love those lines, particulary the last one when matt sings it with that sorrowful, hopelessly dark tone that matt sings with

[awaketochaseadream]

I absolutely love:

''Staying awake to chase a dream,'

That part especially, for me. Hence username.

[Inma Pakara]

"Who you were was so beautiful;
Remember who you were."

Gets me everytime- I know too many people who this applies to.

[OriginOfShowbiz]

"I've seen what you're doing, destroying puppet strings to or souls"
"Souls weeping from above"
"I have played in every toilet but you still want to spoil it to prove I've made a big misake"
"Staying awake to chase a dream"
"Pray that there's no God to punish us"
"The good news is she can't have babies"
"It's our last chance to forgive ourselves"
"Why can't you sleep with some one who'll prtoect you?"
"Your innocence I will consume"

[cherry lips]

bliss,hoodoo,resistance and SHINE ACOUSTIC it has beautiful lyrics ----

[Kimberley]

Hoodoo probably.

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

I love a lot of Muse lyrics, but those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

[church]

"Faith it drives me away, but it turns me on, like a strangers love"

[CarrieB]

"Faith it drives me away, but it turns me on, like a strangers love"

Which song is that from?

Glorious

Yes thanks, I just searched them. It's not one I've looked closely at the lyrics. And you know what, I just read them and they made me shed a tear. He just so gets it. Well what I interpret from them, that internal spiritual struggle, and I certainly wasn't thinking about it before I logged on.:)

Let's conspire to re-ignite all the souls that would die just to feel alive.

I know it's silly to choose one from Starlight when there are tons of absolutely brilliant lyrics, but that was one of my first favorites and I still love it. The others rotate as my favorite; this one seems to stick

[aussiewho]

I think the quaver in Matt's vocal during Guiding Light is the main reason I get a bit sad and shaky listening to it. He sounds so desperate and yearning.

Pure hearts stumble
In my hands, they crumble,
Fragile and stripped to the core,
I can't hurt you anymore.

[cathysteria]

I'm young but I know that I'm aroused....
hahahahaha

[SkyWizardx317]

-Take off your disguise, I know that underneath it's me.
-You could be my unintended choice to live my life extended, you could be the one I'll always love.
-Faith, it drives me away, but it turns me on, like a stranger's love.
-This is the last time that I'll abandon you. And this is, the last time that I'll forget you. I wish I could.
-Spread, our codes to the stars, you must rescue us all.

Who are we

when are we
why are we

[Bliss :)]

All of Screenager. Especially

"Hide from the mirror, the cracks and the memories
Hide from your family, they won't know you now"

And the way Matt sings the song is so beautiful and haunting

Also "Secretly she cries" and "I want to touch the other side" just get to me. I dont really know why

[shy.guy]

You make me sick, because I adore you so...
Your innocence, I will consume...

& my all time favourite,

I'll show you how God, falls asleep on the job. :LOL:

[{-Miss-x-}]

I don't love you and I never did.
I don't love you, and I never will

[Hopix]

All of Screenager. Especially

"Hide from the mirror, the cracks and the memories
Hide from your family, they won't know you now"

And the way Matt sings the song is so beautiful and haunting

Also "Secretly she cries" and "I want to touch the other side" just get to me. I dont really know why

That gives me shivers just reading it. So dark, atmospheric and oppressive.

Exogenesis Symphony Part 3-
Let's start over again.
Why can't we start over again?
Let's just start over again.
And we'll be good...!
This time we'll get it-
Get it right.
This is our last chance... to forgive ourselves.
I wanna cry when I hear this
Starlight
Far away from my memories of the people who care if I live or die
I miss my old friends, I have very few now that I moved.
Uno
We could of rule the whole world! And we could have had so much fun!
True dat

[llamafish164]

'Dont waste your time or time will waste on you' (Knights of Cydonia)

'I have played in every toilet' (Muscle Museum)

'Destroy Demonocracy' (Assassin)

They are my faves but the unintended lyrics are quite good too.

[krentu]

I don't love you and I never did.
I don't love you, and I never will

Oh, these lines are the culmination of the song... makes me somewhat sad and melt at the same time.

I like this :

"I'm sick of feeding my soul
To people who'll never know
Just how purposeless and empty they've grown
Because their language confuses
Just like computers refuse
To understand how I'm feeling today"

Don't know why, just like it..

"Don't waste your time or time will waste you" - simple but tough.

[ChrisRowlands]

"I have played in every toilet,
but you still want to spoil it"
-Muscle Museum

Or on a more realistic note:

"Come let the truth be shared
No-one ever dared
To break these endless lies"
-Showbiz
