"Here they come marching down the street

like a desperation murmur of a heart beat

Coming back from the edge of town

Underneath their feet..."

from Homecoming

"It dont take a genius to be an idiot"

from The Pedestrian

and finally

"Well she said i cant take this place im leaving it behind

Well she said i cant take this town, im leaving you tonight"

Letterbomb as well:

"You're not the Jesus of Suburbia

The St. Jimmy is a figment of

Your father's rage and your mother's love

Made me the idiot America"

Did you stand too close to the fire

Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone

my favourite lyrics tend to change with my mood.

so at the moment it's "The cracks of my skin can prove, As the years will testify" - ¡Viva la Gloria!

previously some of my favourite lyrics have included:

"With every breath that I am worth, Here on earth" - last night on earth

"I think they found another cure, For broken hearts and feeling insecure" Restless Heart Syndrome

I still also love all the lyrics to whatsername :happy:

greatest line ever for me is "the orgasm, a spasm of love and hate"

I don't know if it counts, but at the moment I really like the lyrics of the middle part of the 21st Century Breakdown demo.

"There is a war that's inside my head

that questions the results and lies"

"I'm taking a loan on my sanity

for the recapturing of my soul"

They're awesome... and I personally think that they're a lot better than the ones in the final version.

"Well, I am a killjoy from Detroit

I drink from a well of rage

I feed of the weakness with all my love" from Peacemaker

Haha, it's funny how I loved those lyrics even before I heard that song (since it was up on greenday.com) and that the song ended up so awesome.

i always love this part when it comes on in Homecoming

"in the crowd of pain, st. jimmy comes without any shame

he says we're fucked up but we're not the same

and mom and dad are the ones you can blame"

Yes! Me too!

"Grasping to control, so I better told on"

In Basket Case.

"Do you ever build up all the small things in your head to make one problem that adds up to nothing?"

In Having a Blast.

"Read between the lines what's fucked up and everything's alright"

In Boulevard of Broken Dreams.

And finally "The rage and love, the story of my life, the Jesus of suburbia is a lie"

In Are We The Waiting.

I love that bit, especially "The Jesus of Suburbia is a lie". It just says so much.

Every time I hear it, my heart pretty much skips a beat.

It's just an awesome moment in the song! Actually make that the entire album!

rrrright now,

-"Home is where the heart is but what a shame, cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same"

-"Here lies the truth, the lost treasures of my youth"

I don't really have an overall favourite lyrics, just sometimes when listening to a song I'm like :o I never realised how amazing that is before! :lol:

FBHT -

Do you want to elope tonight

Getting lost in the shadows

All dressed up like a switchblade knife

Let's hang in love from the gallows.

andandand

Mary, full of grace and sin.

throwing caution to the wind

Mary, I'm crucified

drink my blood coming from my eyes.

Green Day -

What's the latest way that a man can die,

Screaming Hallelujah?

I sat in the waiting room

Wasting my time

And waiting for Judgement Day. (This last one is nothing special but it pretty much sum's up life, well, for the majority of people anyway.)

I love the "Home is where your heart is, but what a shame, 'cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same". But I also love the next part too "It's beating out of time". I don't know why, it's just...Ahh I can't explain it. I just think it's a powerful line.

welcome to Paradise:

For some strange reason it's now

Feeling like my home

And I'm never gonna go

21 Guns:

Did you try to live on your own

When you burned down the house and home?

Did you stand too close to the fire?

Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone
