Your favorite Green Day lyric


Fuzz

Recommended Posts

There are so many great lyrics but the first thing that came into my mind was:

No culture's worth a stream of piss
Or a bullet in my face
To hell with unity
Separation's gonna kill us all

Green Day's lyrics mean so much to me. Sometimes I get really emotional just from reading the lyrics. Other great lyrics:

The world owes me so fuck you.

Is there any cure for this disease someone called love.

My own worst friend, my own closest enemy.

Looking out of my windo for someone who's passing by, no one knows I'm locked in here and all I do is cry.

It's not over till your underground.

I don't want to stop but I guess that was already too much ;)

my favs:

"We are all born in a world of doubt,

but there's no doubt

i figured out, i love you."

"infatuation touches me just when i thought that it would end"

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

Fuck it, I'm posting up the whole lyrics to "Who Wrote Holden Caulfield?":

"A thought burst in my head and I need to tell you

It's news that I for thought
Was it just a dream that happened long ago?
I think that I just forgot
Well it hasn't been the first time
And it sure does drive me mad
There's a boy who fogs his world and now he's getting lazy
There's no motivation and frustration makes him crazy
He makes a plan to take a stand but always ends up sitting.
Someone help him up or he's gonna end up quitting
I shuffle through my mind
To see if I can find
The words I left behind
Was it just a dream that happened long ago?
Oh well...
Never mind.
Well it hasn't been the first time
And it sure does drive me mad"
This is among the only songs that I'll ever tell myself "Damn, I wish I wrote that song." It's almost as if the song was written for me because I could relate to it in so many ways and the way I interpret the lyrics... it just speaks to me so loud and clear. So many thoughts burst in my head that I need to tell a certain someone. And yes, most of it just feels like a dream that happened long ago and I don't want to forget. It sure does drive me mad sometimes...
Edit: I know it couldn't be a whole verse. xD

Well I toss and turn all night,
Thinking of your ways of affection,
But to find that it's not different at all.
Well I throw away my past mistakes and contemplate my future,
That's when I say: what the hey

Would we last forever?
You and I together hand in hand
We run away (far away)
I'm here for nasty weather
But I'll take whatever you can give
That comes my way

I genuinely can't pick between like 20 lyrics...and they're all great for different reasons.

There seems to be at least one great lyric for every emotion...

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

Waiting for a sign to smash the silence with the brick of self control- She

I've been waiting a long time for this moment to come i'm destined for anything at all - Waiting

Everytime i'm falling down you take the reprecussions- Do Da Da

And in the darkest night if my memory serves me right, i'll never turn back time, forgetting you but not the time- Whatsername

I'm a mess and you're a work of art- Fell For You :wub:

She gave up on Jesus for living on venus- Wild One

Hello stranger, i'm a disaster, this brutal love- Brutal Love

you're not around and i'm a complete disaster, i'm missing you- Missing You

I don't wanna be an imbecil, but jesus made that way- Sex, drugs and violence

Hard to pick just one...

'Let's nuke the bridge we torched 2000 times before,

This time we'll blast it all to hell,

I've had this burning in my guts now for so long,

My belly's achin' now to say'

No one's picked this yet so im gonna put it as mine, i know its a whole chorus but i couldn't pick between the 1st and 2nd half of it of which was better.

serious people are funny to me, funny people seem so serious.

for what it's worth, it was worth all the while.

radioactive and primal, nuclear and so delightful.

we've come so far we've been so wasted, it's written all over our faces.

what's the difference between you and me? i do what i want, and you do what you're told.

i think that's it for now, haha.

"It's not over til you're underground."

So simple, but so, so effective. I'm considering having a tattoo of it.

A close second is "Remember, whatever, it seems like forever ago." The whole of Whatsername is just soul destroying, really.
