Powerful Lines

[KaptenDavidsson]

I've written down some lines that I find powerful (as an effort to learn how to write better lyrics). I usually don't listen that much to the lyrics but these stuck. Do any of you guys have any more lines?

 

Blind Guardian
In agony we're unified

Will my worried soul find relase for a while
at the moment of death I will smile

Metallica
You gave me your emptyness
Now I'll take it to my grave

Never free
Never me

Symphony X
Looking down from ethereal skies
solid crystalline tears I cry

Sum 41
We're hopelessly blissful and blind
to all we are

Sonata arctica
Sometimes we need to be cruel to be kind

Opeth
To rid the disease

A Perfect Circle
And permanently fill this hollow

Jedi Mind Tricks
The entire world is a graveyard

Shadow gallery
It's time to ease and release and let go

Regina Spektor
The history books forgot about us

The Used
To save his life
he crawls like a worm from a bird

In flames
It is only for the weak

Everlast
'Cus she's good to go
and when I'm gone for good 
I'll be unappreciated and missunderstod

Pain of Salvation
In life a king
in death a failure
