There are lyrics that stick to our heads sometimes that can make you happy, sad/cry, angry or even some where you just still ponder what they mean/confuse you, etc;

They just strike a cord in a way that now floats in our brain.

These can be lyrics from just this week/today or those you have heard for years. From a song that you like or you don't particularly like it but there's a part that sticks out to you.

If the song that has your favorite lyrics is in a different language, please give a translation. ^^

Example:

"I mustn't forget to throw in a light joke,

& some smooth talk here & there

& to always smile & please everybody."

- Bitter Chocolate Decoration by Syudou.

The whole song I completely relate to, though the above lyrics I feel capture a glimpse into what it's like being a people pleaser or at least that's how I interpret it.

“ Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now, wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The water's getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how about yours?
That's the way I like it and I'll never get bored
Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid
All that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show, on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars
Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas?
I need to get myself away from this place
I said, "Yup" what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go (go!)
You'll never shine if you don't glow
Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the molddd”

    “So how’s it feel? How’s it feel to be so loved, yet so alone?” -S3x sells by lovejoy

    “I don't miss you
    I miss the thought of what we were
    'Cause this is the part where I shut up
    And let you infest my brain
    Wrap your arms around my cortex
    Dig you in and let you drain
    You'll never get rid of me
    Oh, I'm like a f*****g disease
    I'll make a home in your gut
    'Cause it's somewhere warm to sleep!” -It’s all futile, it’s all pointless! by lovejoy again lol

    “You've…been…trolled! You've been trolled
    Yes, you've probably been told
    Don't reply to this guy
    He's just trying to get a rise
    Out of you, yes, it's true
    You respond and that's his cue
    To start trouble on the double
    While he strokes his manly stubble
    You've been trolled, you've been trolled
    YOU SHOULD PROBABLY JUST FOLD!
    When the only winning move is not to play
    And yet you keep on trying, mindlessly replying
    You've been trolled, you've been trolled, have a nice dayyyy! :)”

    The most enduring earworm for me has got to be I Think I Love You. Partridge Family. Bohemian Rhapsody is a close second.

    I get
    Intrusive thoughts like cutting my hands off
    Like jumping in front of a bus
    Like how do I make this stop
    When it feels like my therapist hates me
    Please don't let me go crazy
    Put me in a field with daisies
    Might not work but I'll take a maybe
    Oh, been breaking daily
    But only me can save me
    So I'm capitulating
    Crying like a f*****g baby
    I'm running low on serotonin
    Chemical imbalance got me twisting things
    Stabilize with medicine
    But there's no depth to these feelings
    Dig deep, can't hide
    From the corners of my mind
    I'm terrified of what's inside

    from serotonin by girl in red. all-time favorite song.

    There's a few. Many, actually.

    "Unforbidden shadows of you formed yesterday
    I ran away to a room here on the bay
    Interrupted life again
    Another new beginning
    Where the silence echoes
    You're no longer with me

    Here and now
    I feel that I'm embracing freedom
    Even though I may be alone
    But that's okay

    Through the darkness
    I would walk in the streets
    Confessions never seemed
    To provide me with a release
    Held me down and tried to cure me
    Tried to give me reason
    But nothing could separate
    This burdened mind from me

    Here and now
    I feel that I'm embracing freedom
    Even though I may be alone, but that's okay
    Looking out to a different sky will disengage me
    Absence is never the answer, I know
    But it serves as my shade

    I do not seek and not intend to find
    A calmer ocean or a sun that'll never rise
    My world will never change
    And time will bring you to my thoughts
    I'll move on and forget you all over again
    Moving on, I can forgive you all over again"
    - 'A Poem To Byzantium' by Delerium
    I've always loved this song. The lyrics hit hard and resonated with me during and after the bittersweet break up of my last relationship. During our demise, I'd sing this in my head and imagine myself running away to a seaside town and leave that jerk in the past.

    "6:30 winter morn
    Snow keeps falling, silent dawn
    A rose by any other name
    Eva leaves her Swanbrook home
    Kindest heart which always made
    Me ashamed of my own
    She walks alone but not without her name

    Eva flies away
    Dreams the world far away
    In this cruel children's game
    There's no friend to call her name
    Eva sails away
    Dreams the world far away
    The good in her will be my sunflower field

    Mocked by man to depths of shame
    Little girl with life ahead
    For a memory of one kind word
    She would stay among the beasts
    Time for one more daring dream
    Before her escape
    Eden beam
    We kill with her own loving heart"
    - 'Eva' by Nightwish
    When I got/get picked on, bullied, mocked, alienated by so many people just for existing, being in their presence, being in seen around the community it makes me want to run away someplace. There have been a few people who accepted me as a friend but I lost contact with them when my family moved. Every single new place I thought would be a fresh, new start. Every time it was the same. I don't want to admit it, but I did have some ... dark thoughts. I tried to be friends with people. They just thought I was too weird, too different, and didn't understand me well enough but didn't want to be bothered to try to get to know me.

    I don't care what you say
    Gotta go my own way
    I never fit your crowd
    You don't really know me
    I'd rather be lonely
    Than to hang around fake friends
    Sick of being stressed-out
    Rather be a let-down
    Than someone who pretends
