"you were the instrument you were the one" Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: 123191 on July 06, 2007, 01:16:51 AM That's a hard one. "you were the instrument you were the one" "and left so far out from the shore... that I can't find my way back my way, anymore." Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: EFISH on July 06, 2007, 01:17:18 AM What can I do.... with a bitch like you?!
Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: estebanf on July 06, 2007, 01:23:59 AM TWAT has not only the best lyrics of the new songs, it is probably the best lyrics Axl has ever written.
But this excerpt is sooooo much cool. ''You think you've got it all locked up inside And if you beat 'em enough they'll die It's like a walk in a park from a cell And now you're keeping you're own kind in hell And if your Great Wall rots blame yourself As if your head were your ass you can tell And we're out of time...'' :peace: Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: von on July 06, 2007, 01:30:19 AM "Broken glass and cigarettes..."
Just love that opener. Sets the whole mood for one of the best songs in the Guns arsenal. Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: twatty on July 06, 2007, 01:31:44 AM And though as long as this road seems
I know its called the street of dreams But thats not stardust on my feet It leaves a taste that's bittersweet that's called the blues Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: Chief on July 06, 2007, 01:37:28 AM this one stands out for me right now:
"What I thought was beautiful, don't live inside of you anymore" Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: FunkyMonkey on July 06, 2007, 02:28:56 AM From The Blues
"What I thought of you now...Has cost more than it should for me" I'm not sure if it's just the lyrics, or the way he sings it, but I love that line. :smoking: Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far?

Sets the whole mood for one of the best songs in the Guns arsenal. i couldn't agree more, However, i'd love to post some lyric from Prostitute or Sorry but instead i'll have to go with this little exerpt form Better as a second choice- I never wanted you to be so full of anger, I never wanted you to be somebody else I never wanted you to be someone afraid to know themselves I only wanted you to see things for yourself :headbanger: :peace: Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: Apollon on July 06, 2007, 03:29:04 AM "If there's something I can make of this, if anything at all
it'd be the devil hates a looser and you thought you had it all..." or "What this means to me is more than I know you believe What I?ve found in you now has cost more than it should for me What I thought was true before, were lies I couldn't see What I thought was beautiful is all in memories..." :drool: Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: dk on July 06, 2007, 03:32:10 AM If I could go back in time
to the place in my soul, there all alone, lonely teardrops, are calling you. ? But I don't want to know it now, cause knowing you it won't change a damn thing, but there was a time. Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: badapple81 on July 06, 2007, 04:21:48 AM Pretty much the second verse of Better.
Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: pollyblue on July 06, 2007, 04:54:28 AM there was a time i would do anything for you (the screaming part at the end of this magical song)
Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: marcelj on July 06, 2007, 05:11:14 AM " If there's something I can gain from this, or anything at all
it'd be the knowledge that you gave me when it thought I had it all " Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: elmir on July 06, 2007, 05:34:35 AM "It don't really matter...gonna find out for yourself"
Pretty much sums up the whole CD saga for me.... Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: Bert on July 06, 2007, 05:48:00 AM And though as long as this road seems
I know it's called the street of dreams But that's not stardust on my feet It leaves a taste that's bittersweet That's called The Blues Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: daviebuckethead on July 06, 2007, 06:21:37 AM " iw as the one who gave you everything, the one who took the fall"
awesome! Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: Nytunz on July 06, 2007, 06:23:12 AM If they were missionaries

Post by: Rainfox on July 06, 2007, 07:06:38 AM The Blues and Madagascar is some of the best stuff Axl's ever written. And TWAT may be the greatest thing he's ever written - alongside SCOM, Estranged and Breakdown. :peace: Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: Axl4Prez2004 on July 06, 2007, 07:07:05 AM I am glad to see so many There Was a Time quotes, Estebanf, I totally agree with you.
My favorite lyric may change on a daily basis so I don't think I can give just one...but the power and emotion of the "I would do anything for you, there was a time," at the end of There Was a Time blows me away every time. :love: Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far?

Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: BlowUpYourVideo on July 06, 2007, 07:40:21 AM 'Cause it would take a lot more hate than you
To stop the fascination Even with an iron fist Our baby got to rule the nation But all I got is precious time Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: GNR4L on July 06, 2007, 07:42:01 AM My favorite is from Better
I never would not thought I could No matter what you'd pay me replay the part You stole my heart I should have known you're crazy Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: wharfy11 on July 06, 2007, 07:50:51 AM On an ordinary day
Not in an ordinary way All at once this song I heard No longer would it play for anybody Or anyone That needed comfort from somebody Needed comfort from someone who cared To be Not like you Unlike me And then the boy took that away From me So that it set the wheels in motion Haunts our memories You were the instrument You were the one How a body took the body Gave that boy a gun Took our innocence Beyond our stance Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: Gunner_Rose on July 06, 2007, 08:14:32 AM "Lonely teardrops are callin' you..." It's the best part of TWAT.
Title: Re: Favorite new lyric so far? Post by: ShotgunBlues1978 on July 06, 2007, 03:11:37 PM "If there's something I can make of this, or anything at all
It'd be the Devil hates a loser and you thought you had it all" "And it hurts too much to see you, and how you left yourself behind You know I wouldn't wanna be you, now there's a hell I can't describe" "I searched and found the ways you used to lure me in Oh, I found the ways Why'd it have to be Marred in denial, and so afraid? If we ever find it's true That we have the strength to choose Oh, freedom or the chains we've held together" "Catcher In The Rye again, won't let you get away from him It's just another day like today (ordinary day) When all is said and done We're not the only ones Who look at life this way That's what the young folks say And if they'd ever change As that, who am I to say? But ever time I see them makes me wish I had a gun If I thought that I was crazy, well I guess I'd have more fun Cause what used to be a slight memory Been altered by someone, that belonged insane Like I do" |
