J'net Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I love so many lines from so many GD/PHGP/FBHT songs, they occur to me throughout every day of my life. I love all the ones that have been mentioned here so far. But I think the one that's (usually) the most powerful for me is from Minority. Even though several great lines from this song have been mentioned above, my favorite still isn't there, so I give you:Stepped out of the lineLike a sheep runs from the herdMarching out of timeTo my own beat nowThe only way I know!!!And the way he sings that last line - it always makes me feel inspired and uplifted and defiant and released and freed from the slavery of my own twisted mind. What could be better?Though I have to say, as I always say when someone asks me what's my favorite song ... "the one I'm listening to at the moment" ... the same goes for my favorite line most of the time, too.
veronica_cy Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 "Every time I look in my past I always wish I was there I wish my youth would forever last Why are these times so unfair"(I love "16")"Are you locked up in a world that's been planned out for you?Are you feeling like a social tool without a use? ""The emptiness will fill your soul with sorrowcause it's not what you make it's what you leave""Can't run around in circles if you wanna build a life""Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts"And many, many, many more.
Donna Saint Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 To live and not to breathe, is to die in tragedyI think it is a reminder to me that I need to live life instead of being suffocated by the place I live and hate, it reminds of how much I want and need to get out of here.One light one mind flashing through the darkBlinded by the silence of a thousand broken heartsHow amazing is that line, I remember first listening to Minority and this lyric just hitting me with how powerful it isI can't say it better... I think the same
drumstick Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 "like my fathers come to pass 7 years has gone so fast"-my dad died too when I was 12 so thats kind of my personal song"i don't feel any shame I want apologize when there aint nowhere you can go, running away from pain when you've been victimized tales from another broken home"-thats so sad part of this awesome song..i luv it so much"i walk this empty street on the boulevard of broken dreams"-sometimes i feel so alone and thats the song that describes me then"i hold my breath and close my eyes and dream about her, cause she's 2000 light years away"-from 2000 light years away...I love Billie so much and my dream is to meet him or just see him.I live in Croatia and he live in California, so thats for me more than 2000 light years away.- I hold my breath and close my eyes and dream about HIM cause HE'S 2000 light years awaythere's so much songs of green day that reminds me on some time of my life...I just love them
greendaytone Posted July 9, 2008 Author Posted July 9, 2008 Just don't get it wrong on a DVD mister!I couldn't resist, please forgive me. LOL Haha, very good. I'll give you that one!
karma1215 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 So many songs... so many great lyrics but here are a few of mine.WaitingI've been waiting a long time For this moment to come I'm destined for anything ... at all.Armtage ShanksStranded lose inside myself My own worst friend My own closet enemyBranded.... maladjusted.MinorityA free for all Fuck' em allYou are your own sight.Only of You ( Love this song!)I wish I could tell you But the words could come out wrongOh if you only knewThe way I felt for so long
greendaytone Posted July 9, 2008 Author Posted July 9, 2008 I've also got a say, i love the sounds Billie Joe makes during songs. Very hard to explain, but i think you'll all know what i mean. Like the the ooo-oooh' (in the intro to Church on Sunday).And most recently, the angry way he builds up to "but we did, yeah we done it" on pieces of truth.Know what i mean? They're quite subtle, but really add some feeling to the songs.
Ingrid Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 ^ I know exactly what you mean, and I quite agree with you
Micky Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 at the moment it's "Everyone is so full of shitborn and raised by hypocritesHearts recycled but never savedFrom the cradle to the graveWe are the kids of war and peacefrom Anahem to the Middle EastWe are the stories and disciples ofthe Jesus of Suburbia"

Boston Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 "I, I'm just killing time now; I do it all the time now; and its killing me." from Broadway by FHT is a recent favorite.

xZombieDollx Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 some say i'm disturbed but it's what i deserve from blood,sex and booze- i don't know i just like the linemaking your mascara bleed tears down your face, leaving traces of my mistakes from church on sunday- just like how it seems that someone realize he/she made mistakes by seeing the signifcant other hurt last chance to piss it all away.Nothing but hell to pay when the lights are going down from deadbeat holiday- it's like you'll have the last chance to fuck everything up before everything gets dark and you're definitely gone..i don't know i also kind of join that sentece with suicide too and also wake up, the house is on fire and the cat's caught in the dryer.philisophy's a liar just love those lines and the way he sings them she is the first voice of the last ones in the line from maria- just kind of give me a positive feeling castaway,going at it alone.castaway,now i'm on my own and i'm on a mission into destination unknown from castaway- pretty much reminds that in life you'll be alone sometimes and that you'll never know how your life's going to bei'm not part of your elite i'm just alright from stuck with me- you actually don't have to feel as if you belonged somewhere to feel good with yourself time grabs you by the wrist directing you where to go from good riddance- time fixes everythingdumbstruck,colour me stupid and better thank your lucky stars from waiting- i just love them that's all the whole poprocks & coke song because it gives a clear statement of friendship/love the whole jaded song i just seem to get happy when i listen to it the whole redundant song it's just a great love/feelings declaration for the significant other when you feel as the most used words are not enoughand then the whole 1039 smoothed out slappy hours and most part of Kerplunk! cd's are just love to me
Hermione Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Yay more!!!Well I'm a waste like you, with nothing else to doMay I waste your time too? I hold my breath and close my eyes and dream about herSugar and spice and everything nice wasn't made for only girlsI'm in for nasty weatherBut I'll take whatever you can give that comes my wayYou pushed me once too far againI'd love to break your fucking teethLike a production line going over and over and over rollercoasterNow I cannot speak, I lost my voice, I'm speechless and redundant'Cause I love you's not enough, I'm lost for wordsDo or die, no reply, don't deny that you're syntheticYou're patheticI'm just roaming for the moment, sleazing my backyardI must insist on being a pessimistMy wallet's fat and so is my headI always waste my time just wondering, what the next man thinks of meI'll never do exactly what I want, and I'll sculpt my life for your acceptanceYou're just, a fuck, I can't explain it 'cause I think you suckI'm taking pride, in telling you to fuck off and dieBecause I feel so right, let my imagination goUntil you're in my sights, and through my veins temptation flowsWith an angel face and a taste for suicidalI'm all busted upBroken bones and nasty cutsBetter not start on the side bands
Celes Chere Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 My wallet’s fat and so is my headI love that line too, that song is great!
klytaemnestra Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 the whole of jesus of suburbia is rather amazing lyrically.i also love this part of homecoming;"here they come marching down the street,like a desperation murmur of a heartbeatcoming back from the edge of town,underneath their feet.the time has come and it's going nowehere,nobody ever said that life was fair nowgo karts and guns are treasures they will bear,in the summer heat."etc etc. :]billie joe is a genius sometimes.
Hermione Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I love that line too, that song is great!Yeah I basically could've just quoted the whole song, it's awesome
