"There has never been a greater love
Than Your Son" - Christy Nockels - No not one

"Oh my God I went Gold when I saw your smiling face
I went Gold when I went through this troubling maze
I went Gold and my people behind me all did the same
Oh my God I went Gold when the ocean swallowed me
I went Gold and I felt that I was free
I went Gold and my people behind me all did the same" - Mando Diao - Gold

"
O deserts down below us
And storms up above
Like a stray dog gone defective
Like a paper tiger in the sun" - Beck - Paper Tiger

I have shot you and stabbed you through your heart

Lifes a bitch and then you die, thats why we get high.

"It's 5am – I've got no sleep at all
Just thoughts of how I might struggle through tomorrow"


and

"Wish I could call someone I love
To stop thinking of myself
Long look in the mirror
Just… looks back so blankly
You were right: I can't do this...
I'm going crazy, it's gone by me and you can't see
How much I think I'm empty "

And with my one last gasping breath
I'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt."

My favorite line from that song is 'Why ponder life's complexities when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?'.

"Closed hands and open arms hold nothing"

Saetia - Closed Hands

"Furniture has no say in life,
It was made to be used by people.
How many times have you felt like a bookcase
Sitting in living room gathering dust"

Fugazi - Furniture

"I don't know what you've been told
That streets should be paved with gold
I can't know just what you read
But health is all the wealth I need
Birds and squirrels and bees and trees
All the things that ride the breeze
Money makes the world go round
Drags it down and burns it out"

Lightning Bolt - Captain Caveman

"he made up worlds in his mind
But he didn't need them now so he left them behind
And for the first time in a long time
he was glad to be breathing and his new face could smile
"Please don't take this skin away", he cried
"I'll pay any price I have to pay", he cried
"It's great to have this chance to fail", he said"

Ghost Mice - Monsters Get Slain
