Great thread, TyrackT71. Man, I could never be so sure of my lyrics that they'd be my favorites! HA! More power to you, man!

As for my favorite verse... that's a tough one. At the moment, I'll go with either this:
I fear the fire needed to warm me inside
'Cause as the ice cracks, in flow the facts
And everything's slipping aside
I feel the pain coming and going away
It would be in vain trying to lay your claim now
I won't be sticking around
I won't be sticking around

Or this:
Breaking away when there's no reason to run
'Cause like a seed I need water and sun
My life has just begun... Sure!
My life has just begun... Everyday!
Where do I go?
I don't know if I care where
I know you feel so low, 'cause I've been there
I'll just keep it in the back of my mind
I can't find the time
I can't find the time

Both from this song; Probably my all-time favorite (this, or The Show Must Go On by Queen).

Also; Good choice on the Manson there, sir.

I couldn't pick a single verse from this song everything is on point.
Gwen Stefani sampled the same reggae song for Rich Girl

[randomwab]

I'm going to cheat and post two different songs, but only because they're both by one artist.

Reuben - Cities on Fire

"So play your violin
and breathe the sulpher in,
take it on the chin
as london sheds it's skin,
play your violin
and try and hide your grin
as it burns away your sin,
and London sheds its skin"

Reuben - Everytime A Teenager Listens To Drum & Bass, A Rockstar Dies

"Before all this madness
I had a plan
I dreamed I would buy us a plot of land
where you and me could rest our bones
A place where we could both call home"

[Branden_Lucero]

Bad Things - Wednesday 13

A bullet in your head is how i want it - you're body on the floor - a kodak moment
Your a waste of air and a waste of space. i want sharp objects to fly into your face.
i hate you now more than i ever did. i want to kill you, dig you up, and do it again.
i want a car to run over your head, put it in reverse and do it again.

IMN - Mudvayne

All work and no play makes me sick. i want to eat a bullet. Carve myself. Beat my face.
Catatonic. Dig my brain. No pain. Suffocate. Stomach aches. Don't give a fuck. I'm out.
I'm done. Fuck this shit. You've dug the hole I'm lying in.

White America - Eminem

Look at myself! Let's do the math. If I was black I woulda sold half.
I ain't have to graduate from Lincoln High School to know that.
But I can rap so fuck school. I'm too cool to go back. Gimme the mic.
Show me where the fuckin' studios at. When I was underground
No one gave a fuck I was white . No labels wanted to sign me
Almost gave up, I was like "Fuck it". Until I met Dre
The only one who looked past. Gave me a chance
And I lit a fire up under his ass. Helped him get back to the top
Every fan black that I got.
Was probably his in exchange for every white fan that hes got
Like damn we just swapped. Sittin' back look at this shit wow
I'm like "My skin, is it startin' to work to my benefit now?"

Bang Your Head - Dope Stars Inc.

Oh i just found a way to kill my rage. I'm very proud, according to myself,
To throw it out. with violence it smash. Down to the ground and purify my head.

Oh i just found a way to keep my rage, Contained down and ready to be spread,
Against a crowd of people i can’t stand. Hey bunch of clowns it’s time to take revenge.

I can't resist to own this hate anymore. And keep this anger play with me countless games.
I want to burn in hell where all this anger dwells. And bring myself away from here.

[kevstah2004]

I went off rock a few years back it's too loud bang, bang crash, crash and the majority of artists scream their lyrics instead of singing them, I guess i'm just getting old lol everything just sounds way too generic but I suppose that comes with the limitation of instruments.
To me the above doesn't sound anything better than what my mate Liam out of Sworn Amongst can play. Last song I liked was Keane's Perfect Symmetry but i'm sure that's considered pussified soft rock these days because you can actually understand every word and it has well thought out lyrics.

[BadWolfX]

Tigerlily - La Roux

Well tonight, out on the streets, I'm gonna follow you,
To tell you all about a scene that you would kill for.
You're gonna love what's burning right in front of you,
But you won't see it by the light of the sun.

Come out, Tigerlily, you're caressing me.
I'll take you up, I'll turn you on, I'll take your apathy.
I wouldn't lie to you, blossom, won't you let it go
I'm gonna give you all want, and don't you know...

[Harry Mason]

The Cardigans

03.45: No Sleep

It's way too late to think of
Someone I would call now
And neon signs got tired
Red eye flights help the stars out
I'm safe in a corner
Just hours before me

I'm waking with the roaches
The world has surrendered
I'm dating ancient ghosts
The ones I made friends with
The comfort of fireflies
Long gone before daylight

And if I had one wish fulfilled tonight
I'd ask for the sun to never rise
If God lent his voice to me to speak
I'd say "Go to bed, world"

I've always been too lame
To see what's before me
And I know nothing sweeter than
Champaign from last New Years
Sweet music in my ears
And a night full of no fears

But if I had one wish fulfilled tonight
I'd ask for the sun to never rise
If God passed a mic to me to speak
I'd say "Stay in bed, world,
Sleep in peace"

[Vector]

"Some days you go in the rain,
and some days you feed on a tree frog.
This ordeal, the trial to survive,
for the day we see new life.
I give my life, not for honor, but for you,
Snake Eater."

[GuardhouseMusic]

I don't remember the tree frog line. Well then.

I was never really a fan of lyrics to be quite honest. I was more interested in the sound including the voice. I suppose that's why I like Cocteau Twins so much. The lyrics I only remember so much of in a tune.

[Helegad]

Shiny Toy Guns - Photograph

"You danced upon the mirror glass,
on the floor,
while the sky was falling.
Where'd you go, my curious?
Insecure...
You lost the way again..."

Shiny Toy Guns - Sky Fell Over Me

"Please don't think the world
has taken the best of you or me,
I know the love that's in your eyes
was there when the sky fell over me..."

[axeline]

here's mine...

among the sounds of the hitmakers..from metal bands..
of which is my fave bands... I love the metallica ..

from " One " by Metallica

In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I'll live
Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, wake me
Now the world is gone, I'm just one
Oh God, help me
Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please, God, help me
Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
