Ok, surely this can't create any arguments.

Which song(s) is/are your favourite(s) lyrics wise?
And which one line is your fave?

I'd have to say Narcolepsy (I read dead russian authors volumes at a time, i write everything down except what's on my mind) or Losing A Whole Year (Rich daddy left you with a parachute, your voice sound like money and your face is cute)

Best line ever tho is from Slow Motion (Hollywood glamorised my wrath, I'm the young urban psychopath)

(Hey, i know it's a bit lame but i am new to all this)

It's difficult to say, 3eb probably has the best lyrics. . .ever.

But I guess I have to go with Motorcycle Drive-By, still my favorite Third Eye Blind song, and my favorite song of all time for that matter. After that . . . I think Deep Inside of You and Darwin are great as well.

I'm loving the Forget Myself lyrics. . .

My favorite line from Motorcycle Drive-By. . ."There's this burning. . .like there's always been. . ."
Argh, get's me every friggin time.
Deep Inside of You
"I never felt alone. . . .and then I met you"
Darwin
"And it's alright, it's alright, yeah . . . cuz it's a long night, a long night, yeah"

"The village church yard is filled with bones weeping in the grave,
The silver lining of clouds shines on people Jesus couldn't save,
You want to know how deeply my soul goes, Deeper than bones, deeper than bones"

-God of Wine
-Motorcycle Drive By
-Narcolepsy

I love that line. It's such the perfect ending for Blue.

I remembering hearing the chorus line from Blinded this summer and just knowing that we are in for such a kick-ass album, lyric-wise especially. I know my favorite line will be from off the new disc.

There is to many to chose, but just to name a few.....
MDB(You're so serene, careening through the universe, your axis on a tilt, guiltless and free I hope you take a piece of me with you)......
oh man this song is beautiful, the whole thing is a masterpiece:yes:

Alright Caroline
(Time moves faster today, oh
Let's not speak of it
Some things you cannot mend
And I'm watching her sleep
And it's beautiful
Tell me when I won't be seeing you again)

Darkness

(Cause I’ve faced down my demons
And cried out to a god
A god I’ve never seen
Lights)

Deep Inside of You

(And I’d know what to do if I just knew what's coming
I would change myself if I could
I’d walk with my own people if I could find them,
And I would say that I'm sorry to you,
I'm sorry to you, but I don't want to call you,
But then I want to call you cause I don't want to crush you,
But I feel like crushing you and it's true
I took for granted you were with me,
I breath by your looks and you look right through me
But we were broken and didn't know it)

Jumper

(The angry boy,
A bit too insane,
Icing over a secret pain,
You know you don't belong,
You're the first to fight,
You're way too loud,
You're The flash of light,
On a burial shroud,
I know something's wrong)

How's It Going To Be
(Like . . The hammocks and the doorways we spent time in,
Swing empty,
Don't see lightning like last fall
When it was always
About to hit me,
I guess that is how it's going to be.
Want to get back in again,
The soft dive of oblivion
I want to taste the salt of your skin)

I'll stop here, but I could basically pull lyrics off of every 3eb song,those are my favs from the top of my head, SJ is a brilliant lyricist.

"And this is the last time, We'll be friends again.
I'll get over you, you'll wonder, who I am.
And there's this burning, Just like there's always been,
I've never been so alone, alone, alive, alive, I've never been so alive, so alive"

of new songs:

Blinded:

"Cause I believe that we are lucky
We are golden
We have stolen moments too close to the sun"

I have to say I like so much of the lyrics. Of all the songs, I like the lyrics to Scattered the best. I find the lyrics absolutely incredible all the way through the song. I love the lyrics to that song so much. It describes me on many levels.

I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
You could cut ties with all the lies, that you've been living in,
And if you do not want to see me again, I would understand.
I would understand

It's all in your mind, She said the darkness and the light,
The clock, it bleeds for you but you never got the timing right,
I woke you up and I slit the throat of your confidence,
And we laughed in the night, And I felt alright.

The plans I make still have you in them,
Cause you come swimming into view,
And I'm hanging on your words like I always used to do,
The words they use so lightly, I only feel for you,
I only know because I carry you around,
In the background.

I go home to the coast. It starts to rain, I paddle out on the water alone,
Taste the salt and taste the pain. I'm not thinking of you again,
Summer dies and swells rise,
The sun goes down in my eyes,
See this rolling wave,
Darkly coming to take me home,
And I never been so alone, And I've never been so alive.

Gimmie the ball, gimmie it all
Big orange ball
Roll up over fields
I shame the devil cause I throw it down
So hard I rock the big line
I rock the back yard
Be a dream in color even on a winter's night
Thinking George Seurat, afternoon bathed in light
Get your joy no matter who says it's right
Their cover's blown
Find the story of your own

OK in the geometry of the
Prism of my eye
Will flow
I ask the questions and wonder why
Only to roll in a big arrange ball
That floats in a summer sky

Dream of lives we could of had before
Heaters broke down, open doorways
Friends of yours will tell you more
What happens in your mind

There's the sound
Of the phone, not ringing
It echoes in my home,
Seeing my friends in a crowd of you
Tell me why I'm so goddamned alone
And I felt I could do anything that's why
I made you safe with me
Say it's not there but across the sea
The stone takes a chunk of change from me

I'm gonna find me a woman who makes my soul feel thick
She says love, I won't feel sick
When you say how ya doing?
We'll say we are fine
Yeah we're fine,
I am fine

Brian

I'm just popping my head into this thread to say that I have waaaay too many favorite lyrics. I couldn't even begin to name them all.

Synder206
01-08-2003, 02:43 AM
It was SO hard to choose, but I picked my fav from each of S/T, Blue, and "Unreleased".

Motorcycle Drive By
Slow Motion
Blinded

And my most favorite line, from GFY:
"Cause I've been alone, my faith turned to stone
Still there's something in you, that I believe in"

ZZPriestess
01-08-2003, 02:49 AM
My favorites:

The soft dive of oblivion (BLISS.)

Every glamorous sunrise throws the planets out of line
A starsign out of whack
A fraudulent zodiac

And the end of MDB starting at "I go home to the coast..."

ZGreedyFly
01-08-2003, 02:58 AM
Actually, I think mine might be:

"I close my eyes and dream that I'm awake."

from Narcolepsy. What a genius lyric.

I'm never one to remember lyrics, but you said two of the ones that always jump out and grab my attention.

Also from a new songs is some of the stuff in Palm Reader. I'm not sure if this is out of context with the song or not, but it stands good by it's self:

Tell me everything will be alright
Cos it's so good to believe
We could turn it all around in a night
You and I
Yeah it's so good

Yes, it's very very simple and not even as poetic as some of the other stuff, but just the way Stephan sings it makes it cool to me.

But I'm not very good at interpreting lyrics so maybe the song as a whole is about something else.

01-08-2003, 03:17 AM
I'm with most of you. I could pick lyrics out of all the songs but I'll do it this way....
S/t- mdb or god of wine
Blue- hmmm wounded or slow motion (unedited naturally)
Unreleased- ugh well I like what I've heard of blinded and wake for young souls.

But I love them all!
wow I just realized since the site crashed I've only posted twice.
:sigh: I feel like a newbie again.

01-08-2003, 03:21 AM
all of it is soooo good. its very difficult to choose but all right caroline, gorgeous, mdb are prolly at the top of my list.

"oh theres the sound of the phone not ringing ..."

"time moves faster today, lets not speak of it. somethings you can not mend, and im watching her sleep and its beautiful, tell me when i wont be seeing you again..."

"summer dies and swells rise, the sun goes down in my eyes, see that rolling wave, darkly coming to take me home..."

"I think about you dying years from now never having known who you are" -- Farther

"You said, you are of the earth, I am of the sky
I don't even know what the hell that means" -- Farther

"To a club that's pounding in the London rain
The world could end, we wouldn't hear it" -- London

I never claimed to understand what happens after dark -- Wounded

"And there's a memory of a window, looking through, I'd see you
Searching for something I could never give you
There's someone who understands you more than I do" -- God of Wine

"The plans I make still have you in them
'Cause you come swimming into view
And I'm hanging on your words like I always used to do
The words they use so lightly, I only feel for you" -- The Background

"You touch the tattoo of the sun on the warm belly that once carried a baby for a while" -- Tattoo of the Sun

And loads more...

The Background
Everything is quiet, Since you're not around,
And I live in the numbness now.
In the background.
I do the things we did before,
I walk Haight Street to the store,
And they say where's that crazy girl?
You don't get drunk on red wine, And fight no more,
I don't see you anymore

Motorcycle Drive By
I go home to the coast. It starts to rain, I paddle out on the water alone,
Taste the salt and taste the pain. I'm not thinking of you again,
Summer dies and swells rise,
The sun goes down in my eyes,
See this rolling wave,
Darkly coming to take me home

Wounded
Back down the bully to the back of the bus
Cause it's time for them to be scared of us

You're a summer time hottie with her socks in the air
Screaming I don't care baby I don't care hey

Farther
And a woman talking to herself
Gathers up the shit she couldn't sell
Chances dont' bode well tomorrow and
Talking to myself pass by
I miss you but not the face you make
Like when you found me out for the fake
I am so easily you see through me
What do you do to me to make me treat you so bad?
I keep hoping that you'll speak to me
But I'm farther from you every day

Tattoo of the Sun
I can't forget the smell
Of summer trees at midnight
Bending backwards to please the wind
You touch the tattoo of the sun
On a warm belly that once
carried a baby for a while
Then let that crackled leather jacket round you fold
Red face saints monogrammed in gold
And in this beauty
I would not go any further
Cuz I suddenly remembered
We can't live this way forever

If it had to be just one though, it would be The Background.

"All I think about is waiting
And all the people we are fading into
Farther from you every day
And I think about you dying years from now
Never having known who you are
(This could be my big mistake)
Farther from you every day"
- Farther

"Careening through the universe, your axis on a tilt
You're guiltless and free
I hope you take a piece of me with you..."

I :heart: Palm Reader, and I :heart: just about all of the lyrics to it and AFCO...err, Blinded. The Palm Reader chorus is great...

Soo pretty, soo sad, soo easy to relate to. A bit too easy, actually.

;)

Frued said that love is a good psychosis
But I don't know, I've had too many doses...

I kept your sweater 'til the scent was gone
Bunched up in my hands when the days were long
But I still sniff it...

There's no one to trust
Except maybe the two of us
But that's in the past
The place where I'm living
Haunted by broken dreams
I read the horror scopes in magazines

And, fuck...since I did those, I might as well add another one...

I shame the devil cause I throw it down so hard
I rock the big line
I rock the back yard
Be a dream in color even on a winter's night
Thinking George Seurat, afternoon bathed in light
Get your joy no matter who says it's right

gowiththemartyr
01-08-2003, 07:09 PM
oh so many and oh so little time!

As a whole, my favorites: Motorcycle Drive By and Camouflage. Maybe Narcolepsy. Jumper has some great lyrics as well. It's hard to point out actual lines but from the new songs I love " but you turn my hope into a weapon" from Palm Reader and the whole chorus from Blinded, no need to type it. :yes: Another one would be "and the world darkens around me, strange friends all surround me" from Darkness, "Where we used to laugh there's a shouting match, sharp as a thumpnail scratch, a silence I can't ignore, like hammocks and doorways we spent time in, swings empty" from How's it going to be.

I'll have to think through the other lines, there's too many new threads since last time I logged in. :lol:

Brian
01-08-2003, 10:58 PM
Here are a couple more of my favorites, from two of my favorite songs...

I'm gonna find me a woman that makes my soul feel thick
When she says "love"
I won't feel sick

and...

I am made, of a hard skin
So I don't know how so much pain still gets in...

Take back your piece of me
Let it bleed...

Wounds held inside, they are
Blown open wide

There's the sound
Of the phone, not ringing
It echoes in my home
Seeing my friends in a crowd of you
Tell me why I'm so goddamn alone
And I felt I could do anything that's why
I made you safe with me

I wish so much that I could add onto this post but there are too many to choose from.
Its like asking me "Jessica, if you only could choose one song out of all the songs that 3eb has ever released to listen to for the rest of your life and the rest we throw away, which song would it be? I couldnt choose, knowing I would never be able to hear the others again!!!
I think my instincts would tell me to choose MDB because I can listen to that song over and over and still find it amazing. But i'd hate never being able to hear the others any longer. Okay i've just babbled on about something totally diffrent.
Anyways there are too many lyrics! If any I guess,
"i'll get over you , you'll wonder who I am" cause i once shouted that to my exboyfriend when we were fighting that was cool.

I believe that line is more about relationships in general. IIRC, the next line goes something like "I would like to build something, Buy you'll never going see it happen." He wants to bring the relationship to a high level, but the girl doesn't believe it would work out.

Exactly. Those lines are hearbreaking and honest. That's what I've always gotten out of them....always been able to relate to and feel sad about when listening to the song.

But enough, I'm moderately content now...none of this sad shit.

Ehh...it's not that great. Trust me.

I'm in MDB mode far too much of the time, right now I just don't have anything to really cry or be depressed about. Although I don't have much to be that happy about, either.

I'm just in the middle.

More coming on...

I Want You has so many great lyrics but it's not in my favorites because I don't like the music that much or the way it sounds to be honest. Some great lines: “people always take a step away from what it’s true, that’s why I like you around. I want you”. And “no apologies because my urge is genuine and the mystery of your rhythm is so feminine”. To close “you want to know how deeply my soul goes, deeper than bones”

I remember that when I first bought the self-titled I was obsessed with The Background. And I mean obsessed for real, I couldn't stop listening to it! My favorite line always was “words they come and memories all repeat”

In Motorcycle Drive By, there are like two parts where you just feel proud of that song: “visions of you on a motorcycle drive by, cigarette ash files in your eyes and you don’t mind, and you smile. And say the world it doesn't fit with you”. And “careening through the universe, your axis on a tilt, guiltless and free, I hope you take a piece of me with you”

And oh well, Brian quoted Gorgeous for me. :yes:

Summer time and the wind is blowing outside in lower Chelsea.
And I don't know what I'm doing in this city,
The sun is always in my eyes,
It crashes through the windows, And I'm sleeping on the couch,
When I came to visit you,
That's when I knew, That I could never have you,
I knew that before you did,
Still I'm the one who's stupid,
And there's this burning, Like there's always been,
I've never been so alone, And I've never been so alive.
Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by,
The cigarette ash flies in your eyes, And you don't mind,
you smile,
And say the world doesn't fit with you.
I don't believe you, You're so serene.
Careening through the universe, Your axis on a tilt, You're guiltless and free,
I hope you take a piece of me with you,
And there's things I would like to do that you don't believe in,
I would like to build something, Buy you'll never going see it happen,
And there's this burning, Like there's always been,
I've never been so alone, And I've,
I've never been so alive,
.............the finest lyrics in any song i have listened to FACT!


Everything is quiet, Since you're not around,
And I live in the numbness now.
In the background.
I do the things we did before,
I walk Haight Street to the store,
And they say where's that crazy girl?
You don't get drunk on red wine, And fight no more,
I don't see you anymore,
Since the hospital, hmmmmmm nishhh


The God of Wine comes crashing through the headlights of a car
that, took you farther than you thought you'd ever want to go,
We can't get back again, We can't get back again
still great.....

The village church yard is filled with bones weeping in the grave,
The silver lining of clouds shines on people Jesus couldn't save,
You want to know how deeply my soul goes, Deeper than bones, deeper than bones

Oh you do you do, you make me want you.
Oh you do you do, you make me want you.
(Send me all your vampires),
And I can't get enough,
And I can't get enough,

After we did it by the window sill,
Smoke rings drift into the midnight sky,
presently in the quilt that your mother made,
A prayer candle burns to fight off the gloom,
I said to live in this way is not for the meek,
And like a jazz DJ you talk me into sleep,
There will be no regrets when the worms come,
And they will surely come.
orgasmic.......




That her appetite is blown
Nothing else is known 'cept that she's a little angry
Grabs a towel and looks away
And heat fades with the day
And I fall down on what to say
Oh something clean that we'd be clever
Hey oh well, whatever
But that's not what I mean
Where we've been has left us burnt
Still I won't turn now from a fight
You know I'd never win
hmmmmm that was good lets see whats next

Chemicals wearing me down in your summertime bacchanalian, and
I saw her go faster than the morning comes
She walks away like a lady
It's always the fallen ones I think are always gonna save me
new and VERY good, stephan shows he doesn't need kevin,no, he shows WE don't need kevin

Now it's fall, and your shoulders get tighter
Nervous flicks on the lighter, boots
Your pissed off poets, your women's groups
And the friends with you, we should have known this fool
Well I guess we missed the mark
Still my fingers catch the sparks at the thought of
Them touching you


showing kevin was useful though;)


You touch the tattoo of the sun
On a warm belly that once
carried a baby for a while
this is also good :)

" Blue come over, born a joneser, and the cops pull out the radar, and shoot devious grins, another day begins"

"And there's a demon in my head that starts to play, a nightmare tape loop of what went wrong yesterday, and i hold my breath till it's more than i can take, and i close my eyes and dream that i'm awake"

" The clock it bleeds for you, but you never got the time in right, i woke you up and i slit the throat of your confidence"

" I've seen suckers lose themselves in the games they learn to play, children love to sing but then their voices slowly fade away, people always take a step away from what is true, that's why i like you around, i want you"

So many more excellent songs with excellent lyrics like eye conqueror, sorry, gorgeous, alright caroline, and slow motion.

Maybe you should come to one of my debate tournaments. Lots of weird varieties of clothing there. There is usually at least one Feminazi there.

I've seen a few girls being led around by other girls with a chain and collar too.

That's just um....... well......... Weird... grose....sick....dememnted... and a lot of other things. Why would a girl want to be dragged around by a chain like a dog. Especially by another chic (no adfence to anyone who may be lesbian. I just don't understand).

I don't get the boots thing either Katie, don't feel bad. You're not the only slow one around here.

First, not all feminazis really wear boots. It is kinda a militant metaphor. They get the name in part because of there extreme views on women's issues (I'm all for equal rights, BTW). Furthermore, their pro-abortion stances have been compared to the Holocaust.

It isn't about being lesbian at all there. It is just to get attention. Many girls (and a good number of guys) do things to get attention at these tournaments. For most of the time we're waiting in a cafeteria for an event. People get bored very easily.

At some point in time in the past few years some people thought it would be a good idea to just start acting crazy.

My team doesn't really do too much crazy. We do flirt quite a bit though. A couple years ago we had this guy who wasn't really that good looking at all. He was really good at conversation though. He'd go and find the best looking girl in the area and then start hitting on her. He was mildly successful too. He'd never get a date or anything, but the girl would enjoy talking to him for quite a bit of time. Another guy of the team is incredily smooth. At Jersey Villege a couple years ago he went and sat down by a concession stand. After a while, there was a line of girls waiting to talk with him. It was quite a site.

I myself do various things. One of the weirdest times I flirted was with this girl who after 15 minutes or so learned she had a fiance. We were sitting alone in some hallway and getting along really well. After learning about her fiance, I still talked with her since we were both enjoying ourselves. She kept mentioning how I impressed her. They were things I didn't really consider that impressive too. Like her fiance didn't like riding busses. He refused to get on a Greyhound to see her one time. She was willing to pay for it even though he had the money but he just got freaked at the thought of riding busses. That I rode a Metro bus pretty much every day just incredibly impressed her. After an hour or so we finally had to go to rounds. The floor was a little dusty though. She asked me to check out her ass (she really did say ass) and since she was wearing a rather short black skirt there was dust noticeable. I said she did and she brushed off. She then said she didn't think she could get it all off and asked me to brush the rest off. That is just one of the stories I can tell, mind you...

No offensive...but I can't stand it when people discriminate! Brian and 2pacsnotdead are totally right! Gay's and people of other races or whoever else people may discriminate against are all people just like you and me! Everyone has their own oppinions about different things and everyone is different! I'm not saying that you have to go around screaming how much you love people that aren't like you or anything but don't go around screaming how u hate them or don't understand them or what not. It's just so....ugh! i can't even put a word to it!!!!!!!!!!

It's not that I hate different people. I just don't understand. I also don't really judge them like to say well if you do that, then you're doomed to hell. In my opinion though it's grose. What they do on their own time is fine with me. I just don't understand why anyone would want to be pulled around like a dog, even if it is just because they're bored and have nothing else to do. I don't hate or discriminate against homosexuals or different races. I love almost everyone. My not understanding just makes me mad sometimes, cuz I want to understand, but can't.

Right...

for real! not everybody understands everything! And just b/c u think something is "weird, grose, sick and demented" does NOT mean that it is or even that other people want to hear your oppinion about it. If you are going to say something that you think will offend people, why even say it? I know that you have the right to and all and that it's your oppinion or whatever, but I just see it as your ignorance.

seriously, no offense, i like u as a person and all. it just has to be said. way too many people in society are ignorant and they don't even know it. and maybe u don't realize that by saying things like that you can offend people. Just like I HATE the "n" word. I'm not black, but it still offends me very deeply! ya know? And I can't stand when people walk around and use it like it's nothing! Hello! It's the year 2003! Wake up!

One of the new songs,...."Forget Myself" has the best lyrical line...

"Think I'm looking over your shoulder...cause there's someone younger, you're feeling older.
You're crazy. You never fade. I don't wanna be so complicated. I see my life come undone...
Watch it go and let the damage run. And I'd change this song now if I could...
In the slickness of your blood."
