Single Line Of An Mg Song That Just Stands Out

[mthwaites008]

perhaps more than a single line, but it still probably would only qualify as one sentence:

 

"i lost me control of myself

and baby i don't want it back

no i don't want to be like that

if this is us in control of ourselves"

 

"Around here, our ambition hurts more than it helps."

[MuttersomeTaxicab]

... And I've a grenade with our names scratched on the side. But that's just love, and you know that love's not enough.

[SOLID GOLD]

Three lines:

 

"If everyone's a casualty, then take your time there ain't no trouble. The weather's fine and we're feelin' crazy. There's always drinks and dancin' in the rubble"

[glo]

I am drawing a map to oblivion,

When I get there I will send for you,

and I will give you directions

[stephen]

Just understand understanding

[Mike]

"There's always drinks and dancing in the rubble."

That whole verse is incredible.

[folk singer]

that whole song is incredible really

[Kitch_Man]

Personally I find some of Matt's most memorable lyrics come from his Demos (pre-LOTGA):

 

Waiting for the Great Destruction:

 

"but if it was really all that easy

don't you think I

[Prometheon]

Yeah, most of the old demos have great lyrics like LotGA and Folk Singer

[AnOceanPearl]

"Who will we get to stand up for tomorrow?"

 

Anyone else thinking long and hard about that line right now?

[uglybutterfly]

Saturdays

Saturdays I

[SOLID GOLD]

"That's fate steeeaaaaliiiiiiiiin' awaaaaaaaaaay"

 

I just love how it sounds, kind of just floats off

[cman]

And if I go away again, you can have my stereo.

[SharpeAttack]

It's more than the shot that gets you through

[AnOceanPearl]

"Baby, there ain't enough room in this world for perfections like you and monsters like me, in a time of darkness, you will look absurd and you will feel inert and you'll go looking to blame somebody"

[i_the_throw_away]

I love the following lines....

 

baby every noe and then ain't it good to be alive(Song for The Girl)

 

five fingers, one of them lets you know (Oh Be Joyful)

 

put on a happy face cause crying never solves anything(Annabelle)

 

Go on vacation and drink beer And try and forget all the ways...We let ourselves get away (Bright End of Nowhere)

 

well she wants to be the same, she wants a new name,she wants a new disguise (She's Got A New Disguise)

 

someday your head is going to turn and you'll realize i'm missing, do you realize? (Suburbia)

 

these are off teh top of my head, I am sure there are many more...

[skysosmrt]

off the top of my head:

 

"What if you could make it so that times weren

[glo]

What would you say if you were on tv?

Besides all the things they told you to.

[AnOceanPearl]

I love the way Matt sings the "no pain, no gain" part at the end of Protest Song.

 

A lot.

[TomKr]

"Nicer in a bad way"

[AnOceanPearl]

"It's amazing what velocity can do when human beings are in season"

 

"Fuck you and your principles, and fuck whatever made me, perhaps you think I'm evil, what does it matter if we're crazy?"

[SOLID GOLD]

"I used to dream about your sister

Fucking me in the shower"

 

 

I LOVE that line, yesssssssss ;)

[Blender]

i find it awesome how some of the lines i thought were my opwn personal little lines, are widely liked.

 

my all time favourite is:

"better now then never better loud then clever better just to play the fool, its times like this when you just close your eyes and kiss cause everything after this is just bullshit and being cruel."

but i love these ones

 

"you cant get shot in the back if you dont run"

 

"even a blind squirell finds a nut once in awhile"

 

"if they dropped the bomb, would you love me then?"

 

"i died in an amusement park accident, i came back for you so you wouldnt be alone."

 

but seriously all of the ones that have been said before are my favourites.
