you're dog was your only friend
you spent your life saving fixing it's broken leg
you loved it more than you're parents loved you
and then i ran it over

"I Intentionally Ran Over Your Dog"

The future like a corpse in snow"

And the birth that we stole

"Something about the way you taste makes me want to clear my throat."
My favorite Devo song.

"The glass was raised, the fired rose
The fullness of the wine, the dim last toasting
While at port, adieu or die.

A choke of grief, heart-hardened I
Beyond belief a broken man too tough to cry.

Surf's up, aboard a tidal wave.
Come about hard and join the young and often spring you gave.
I heard the word,
Wonderful thing,
A children's song.
"

"Surf's Up" - The Beach Boys

Says it was good to be alive
And now he rides the comet's flame
And won't be coming back again
The Earth looks better from a star
That's right above from where you are
Holland 1945 - Neutral Milk Hotel (The entire song is great, this is just my favorite excerpt)

Somebody once said remove specifics and convert to ambiguities because definition is
A myth a mirage a speculation a shaky medium made weaker by personal scales of pain

Caldo - School of Seven Bells

And sooo many more.

it'll seem more like a song, and less like it's math, if you pull on my hair & bite me like that.
- bright eyes, pull my hair.

i can think of more "meaningful" lyrics but this one gives me goosebumps each & every time, and i'm not even a big bright eyes fan at all : )
