Saddest line in rock?

I am the God of Hell-fire and I bring you......fire! I bid you to burn!

"line" of a song.....not the whole friggin song.

Since we can no longer make it, girl,

I found a new place to live my life.

It's really no place at all,

Just a hole in the wall, you see.

It's cold and dusty but I let it be,

Livin' here without you,

On Second Avenue.

And since our stars took different paths,

I guess I won't be shavin' in your looking glass.

Guess my old friendly grin,

Must have started to dim, somehow,

And I certainly don't need it now,

Still, I keep smiling through,

On Second Avenue.

I can still see you standing

There on the third-floor landing.

The day you visited we hardly said a word.

Outside it was rainin',

You said you couldn't be stayin,

And you went back to your flowers and your birds.

Since we can no longer see the light

The way we did when we kissed that night,

Then all the things that we felt,

Must eventually melt and fade,

Like the frost on my window pane

Where I wrote, "I Am You,"

On Second Avenue.

Don McLean - Vincent

And when no hope was left inside

On that starry, starry night

You took your life as lovers often do

But I could have told you Vincent

This world was never meant for one as

beautiful as you

I love the expressions on the girls in the audience - they look like they are going to burst into tears any second.

....they're still there.....he's all gone....born in the USA.

Without you - Can't live if living is without you

especially poignant as both the songs composers committed suicide.

steps ascending-thursday

I\'m giving up. this should always stay out of reach I ran down the stairs and into the garden, put both my hands into the soil. in the spring, you will bloom, like her heart, through the blouse, in the back of the ambulance, as it turned and turned in the streets (just one more turn won\'t you come back to me) as it turned on its red lights, you were turning into red roses but I\'m not giving up.

brick-ben folds

They call her name at 7:30 I pace around the parking lot I walk down, to buy her flowers And sell gifts that I got Can\'t you see It\'s not me you\'re dying for Now she\'s feeling more alone Than she ever has before

reel around the fountain-the smiths

I dreamt about you last night

And I fell out of bed twice

You can pin and mount me like a butterfly

But \"take me to the haven of your bed\"

Was something that you never said

Two lumps, please

You\'re the bee\'s knees

But so am I

Fleetwood Mac (Peter Green) - Man of the World

Shall I tell you about my life

They say I'm a man of the world

I've flown across every tide

And I've seen lots of pretty girls

I guess I've got everything I need

I wouldn't ask for more

And there's no one I'd rather be

But I just wish that I'd never been born

And I need a good woman

to make me feel like a good man should

I don't say I'm a good man

Oh, but I would be if I could

I could tell you about my life

And keep you amused I'm sure

About all the times I've cried

And how I don't want to be sad anymore

And how I wish I was in love

Fat bottom girls, you make the rockin' world go round...

He was just eighteen, proud and brave

But a Yankee laid him in his grave

I swear by the blood below my feet

You can't raise a Caine back up when he's in defeat

pearl jam - better man -- "she lies and says shes in love with him, can't find a better man" --that depresses the shit out of me

same old song

just a drop of water in an endless sea

all we do

crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see

Dust in the wind, kansas

Within an hour the news had reached the media machine

A male caucasian with a gun had gone berserk in Queens

The area had been sealed off, the kids sent home from school

Fourteen people lying dead in a bar they called the Kicking Mule

Oh they pleaded to your sanity for the sake of those inside

\"Throw out your gun, walk out slow just keep your hands held high\"

But they pumped you full of rifle shells as you stepped out the door

Oh you danced in death like a marionette on the vengeance of the law

\"You\'ve slept too long in silence\" Mama said

Remember Mama said

Ticking, ticking

\"Crazy boy, you\'ll only wind up with strange notions in your head\"

Hear it, hear it, ticking, ticking

Elton John \"Ticking\"

and you tell me....over and over and over again, my friend, that you don't believe, we're on the eve of destruction? you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

I need you to be the strength of widows and soul survivors

-just let that sink in

I'm bringin sexy back...YAH!

Alone again, naturally

I'm empty and aching and I don't know why

Like a rat in a maze, the path before me lies

And the pattern never alters until the rat dies

I have no need for friendship; friendship causes pain

It's laughter and it's loving I disdain

Asking only workman's wages, I come looking for a job

But I get no offers

Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue

I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there

Once my heart was filled with the love of a girl

I held her close, but she faded in the night

Like a poem I meant to write

In restless dreams I walked alone, narrow streets of cobblestone

Each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories

And every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be

Homeward Bound
