    well everyone on here has a thread with 'best love poem', 'best quotes', etc. well i have one for songs.. an i was going to start one with songs... an i have a line for you...

    "when i see your smile tears run my face, i cant replace, and now that im strong i have figured out how this world turns cold and it brakes through my soul, an i know ill find deep inside me i can be the one" - red jumpsuit apparatus "my guardian angel"

    "seasons are changing an waves are crashing and stars are falling all for us. Days grow longer and nights grow shorter" - red jumsuit apparatus "my guardian angel"

    Best song lines? There are so many. . .

    "Mommas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys" -- the title line from the best duet ever, from arguably the best country song ever. I love this song because it romanticizes the cowboy life by arguing against it. By describing it as dirty and contradictory, they make it glorious and proud.

    That and no one can sing a song like Waylon (RIP).

    I have been all over the place questing for a place to settle, and I found that home, where I started, was the destination.

    Hmmmm.. overall that's a tough pick for me...

    But for an Opening line , I don't think that this one could be beat...

    Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain"

    One of my favourite songs. "Safeguard To Paradise" by Epica.

    "Your engine was so strong, but the road was just too long, hope is not the end, so never lose the faith. As long as we can say they could never take away our freedom, the most precious thing we've ever had. The reward for all the blood we've ever shed."
    None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe that they are free.
    -Goethe

    Its the little things that make this life so beautiful, so glorious, so divine.

    So long, Marianne, it's time we began
    To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again

    God is in my fingers
    God is in my head
    God is in the trigger
    God is in the lead

    God is freedom, God is truth
    God is power and God is proof
    God is fashion, God is fame
    God gives meaning, God gives pain

    - 'Halo' by Porcupine Tree
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.
