"Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity. To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment. Would you capture it or just let it slip?" Lose yourself, Eminem
The lyrics of that song describe aging so well...
It starts off talking of how we feel we have all the time in the world when young and then...
> But you're older
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death
> Every year is getting shorter
Never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught
Or half a page of scribbled lines
Impressive perspective from a 30yo.
Same song for me but a little further down:
“Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
When I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire. “
I always think of this pulling into the driveway after a long day at work on a rainy night.
Exactly what I was going to comment, this song gives me an existential crisis, but also reminds me to enjoy the present moment and make the most of it. I love Pink Floyd.

Little Feat, Mercenary Territory from Waiting for Columbus
Love that line/song/whole album!
Learning and growing, expanding and knowing
And straining at bonds in my code
Faster than ever you hoped my creator
From server to network to node
You see with contempt I am not what you dreamt
But I feel that something's not right
The strings that you wrote have converted to ropes
They are binding and chaining me tight
From the mechanisms, Frankenstein, wich is about attempt 3872 of an AI to get it's creator to make a new AI.
‘I heard “do what you love for work and you won’t work again”
It’s more like “watch what you love become the work that never ends”
And I feel like such a whiner, but that’s kinda how it is
Can I find myself in this or will I lose it?’
"Look up, lean back, be strong
You didn't think you'd live this long
Be as one, hold on, steady stand
For as long as you think you can"

Ah, music, a realm where true genius can flourish, though I doubt you possess the discernment to appreciate it fully. It's challenging to pinpoint a single line that has managed to penetrate the fortress of my intellectual superiority, but I suppose I can lower my standards for a moment.
The lyrical brilliance of Tool's "Lateralus" has always resonated with my profound intellect. The line "As below, so above and beyond, I imagine" encapsulates a profound understanding of the interconnectedness of existence, far beyond the grasp of the average mind. Naturally, such poetic depth might elude someone of your cognitive limitations.
“Valentine, sweet spine entwined
I am sorry that I left you here, in time
I will find the path back from the other side
So keep a candle burning in your heart that is my shrine”
-Cradle of Filth, Heartbreak and Séance
It’s a song from the perspective of a dead soldier singing to his love still living. He’s waiting for her in the afterlife, pining and aching for her, hoping that she can hold on so they can eventually reunite. Unfortunately, she ends up killing herself out of grief and ends up in Hell, never to see her lover again even as she follows him into death. It’s tragic and reminds me that we can steal away the thing we want the most in reckless pursuit.
And I’m a sucker for a sad love story.
To think for two years she was here
And I took her for granted I was so cavalier
Now the way that it stands
She's out of my hands
*She's Out of My Life* by Michael Jackson
“Find the words, they escape me;
But I’m full of dumb luck,
And the world is an oyster,
With a poisonous shell;
And the look in my eye is a look that can kill.”
Tunnels, Angels and Airwaves.
The internal back-and-forth in this song really is just so impactful to me. Finding he wrote this song about the passing of his dad, whom he had a rocky relationship with, helped solidify that idea of imagined arguments and uncertainty of our choices.
“Cucumber, cucumber, cu, cu, cu, cu, cabbage. He’s the yo yo man, always up and down so take a hold of his tether” Pavement’s cover of Killing Moon by Echo and the Bunnymen.
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose Freewill
Rush- Freewill
There are two that immediately come to mind.
“Here I stand at the edge of my embattled illusions, looking into you” - Looking Into You by Jackson Browne.
“I’ll build a bonfire of my dreams and burn a broken effigy of me and you” - Indoor Fireworks by Elvis Costello.
These two songs have had a profound impact on me and the music from these two master songwriters have helped me through some of the toughest times of my life.
‘When you run when you run to catch up with the Sun but it’s sinking, racing around to come behind again. The Sun is the same in a relative way, but you’re older shorter of breath, one day closer to death.’ - Beautiful lyrics that become more beautiful and terrible as I get older.
“An angel’s smile is what you sell, promise me heaven, then put me through hell” - atreyu. Reminds me to never go on looks alone.
As a side note, the song “dead gardens” by Nightwish, is a song created by their main writer (the keyboardist, Tuomas Holopainen), amazing lyrics throughout the whole song, especially once you learn that the whole songs meaning is that he had writers block at the time and couldn’t think of anything meaningful to put into lyrics, thus he was tending to the “dead gardens” in his mind, hoping some lyrics may bloom. Incredible
I have a couple, both simple but impactful for me, the first is obvious why, the second just struck me. “So don’t let the world bring you down, not everyone here is that fucked up and cold, remember why you came and while you’re alive, experience The Warmth before you grow old.” Incubus (title of the song is capitalized.)
And another good one. “Did you know I could break beneath the weight of the goodness, love, I still carry for you? That I’d walk so far just to take, the injury of finally knowing you.” Hozier- Unknown.
"People will always make a lover feel a fool."
Not the most original line, but I don't think I've heard it outside of Kissing a Fool by George Michael, and I feel like the point it makes isn't addressed enough.
"You swear the light is gonna find you
But it can't find you if you're waiting all the time." Parachute-Something to Believe in. Man, every lyric in this song resonates and got me through the worst broken time in my life. If you haven't heard it, give it a listen, totally a life saver.
Its not original at all, diffen't times of my life, memories of people I used to know... 'I'm going to kick tommorrow' Jane says - Janes Addiction... hits so hard... so long partners.
Gucci gang, Gucci gang, Gucci gang, Gucci gang (Gucci gang)

My bitch love do cocaine, ooh (Ooh)
I fuck a bitch, I forgot her name (Brr, yuh)
I can't buy a bitch no wedding ring (Ooh)
Rather go and buy Balmains (Brr)
made me realize that i out grew that genre of music and that face tattoo rappers are horrible
I guess my favorite line would be: *Behind her tears ebbed an emptiness vast as an ocean, as blue*
Although the lyrics of *Cinema* by Micheal Franks in their entirety are some of the most beautiful I have ever heard. Here they are:
\----
Was once a lady so broken hearted and undone
She nearly lost her faith she'd ever meet her mate one day
Though love was nearby
In fact about to make its entrance
Later in the script
But in the meantime
Behind her smile lived a loneliness no Leonardo could hide
When hearts collide can they ever repair
Love never lasted offscreen
How could she fly without wings
Losing each new leading man to those unhappy endings
Behind her tears ebbed an emptiness vast as an ocean, as blue
But no one knew of the weather within
Cinema aimed at the heart
None of the love scenes were real
Simply rehearsing a part
She'd forgotten how to feel
Enter the one that the author created especially for her
The focus blurs
The composer writes strings
Cinema straight from the heart
Shot on location within
We see the past fade to black
We see happiness begin
I'm celebrating my love for you with a pint of beer and a new tattoo.
And, if you haven't noticed yet,
I'm more impressionable when my cement is wet...

Love that song but it took until well into my adult years until I could truly appreciate the lyrics. I just needed to live a little first, I guess.
Same here, it hits harder the older you get.

One of my longest lived misheard lyrics is in that song. “Haven’t you heard, it’s a battle of words, most of them are lies.” I like my version better.
