I really like “First Day of My Life” by Bright Eyes.

This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
They’re spreading blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you’d just woke up
And you said “this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”

It’s a beautiful song, please give it a listen. :D

Whenever I listen to good quotes in songs I usually write them down, so I have a lot.

Currently, they one I can think of is “Do you want me crawling back to you?” (Do I Wanna Know – Arctic Monkeys) and “This isn’t home, I couldn’t feel more alone” (Settle – Two Door Cinema Club). How strong are those?

And there’s this one I live by:

“Don’t hold your head too high, don’t be afraid to cry.”
(It’s Only Fear – Alexi Murdoch)

I really like “My heart is set to race and you dictate the pace”.
It’s from ‘Emilie’ by The Mispers (:

You’re the only girl that never disrespected me
You always know how to bring out the best of me
Cupid shot us separately
Then we came together, it was destiny
I love until there ain’t no loving left in me, definitely

The Fray has a song I recently discovered that I really like named “The Fighter”. The end of it goes:

“Loneliness has always been with me, with me
Maybe we were meant to be on our own
But I got to try or it will destroy me
Cause maybe we don’t have to be all alone ”

and then from “Bullet From A Gun” by The Script:

“When you’re forgiving but you can’t forget
Feels like you’re drowning but you still got breath”

My favourite line is from “Angels or Devils” by Dishwalla. ‘…are there angels or devils crawling here? I just wanna know what blurs and what is clear to see…’

“I can’t relate to what I say,
because I’m not myself.”
Scattered Trees – Five minutes

“You thought you might be a ghost,
you didn’t get to heaven but you made it close.”
Coldplay – 42

“I’m bad at keeping my emotions bubbled, you’re good at being perfect,
we’re good at being troubled.”
Tyler the Creator – IFHY

“It’s a fear, it is near
The shriek becomes ever clear
A bear’s teeth
Extra sharp that’ll cut you in the heart
It attacks really quick
Try and fight it with a stick
There’s no use, give it up
This is life and this is love
You are my alligator”
Grizzly Bear – Alligator

Just to list a few.

Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life- by The Fray

But I’m not crazy, I’m just a little unwell
I know right now you can’t tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you’ll see
A different side of me
I’m not crazy, I’m just a little impaired
I know right now you don’t care
But soon enough you’re gonna think of me
And how I used to be

The Sparrow by Mastadon is by far my go-to song to find myself to: “Pursue happiness with diligence”

“Dark Side”
Everybody’s got a dark side
Do you love me?
Can you love mine?
Nobody’s a picture perfect
But we’re worth it
You know that we’re worth it
Will you love me?
Even with my dark side?
Although I like the Glee version more.

If no one can hurt you,
Then nobody loves you.
If no one can break you,
Then nobody loves you.
If no one can change you,
And no one can save you,
If nobody loves you,
Then I do.
