| I love the romanticism of Richard Thompsons Vincent Black Lightning 1952. Its kind of sad but also a lovely romantic story. Its quite easily a story that Gaslight could have written into one of their own songs. Heres a link anywway.

Honestly there are so many songs I love the lyrics to. I enjoy the romantic storytelling songs.
Springsteens Jungleland has to be one of my best, especially that first verse | |

| "Es Ist Still Auf Dem Rastplatz Krachgarten" by Gisbert zu Knyphausen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZGLxHt-2Eg it's a german song, but it's up close to be my favorite song of all time. it's about driving and forgetting your problems - also reminds me of the gaslight-vibe  the german lyrics are below the youtube video. here's a quick translation for you english speaking guys : - Spoiler:
All are silent except for the radio
and on the opposite carriageway:
Lights that go astray from the darkness itself.
"I'm fine, I'm feeling very, very good,"
wherever we go.
Each meter takes us further away
and leads us to get closer,
of all the things we will never understand.
As long as the wheels are rolling,
my little devil stands still.
Please do not think of stopping,
Please not yet.
From our shabby old boxes, the songs from
many, many, many years flow straight into our hearts.
Their singer always have the same slogan on their lips:
The world is horrible and beautiful.
against wanderlust
only helps the homesickness.
I'll call and start running.
Whenever the rain beats against my window and
yet it is the homesickness that makes me look
in places far from here, in life that are far away from mine.
This old fallacy
is what drives me
is what startles me in the night,
what I can not let go, so let me go.
Let go of me.
From our shabby old boxes, the songs from
many, many, many years flow straight into our hearts.
Their singer always have the same slogan on their lips:
The world is horrible and beautiful.

| Now I know ya'll be lovin this shit right here
L.I.M.P Bizkit is right here
People in the house with them hands in the air
Cause if you don't care then we don't care
One two three times two to the sixth
Jonesin for you picks of the Limp Bizkit mix
So where the fuck you at punk?
Shut the fuck up
And back the fuck up
Before we fuck this track up
(Throw yo hands up)
From the song Rollin' by the great poet and artist Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit. | |

Mine has to be a Bruce lyric as it just summed up my last two years back when i was in school
Well, we busted out of class
Had to get away from those fools
We learned more from a 3-minute record, baby
Than we ever learned in school

| Continuing with the Springsteen love, but The Promise and Racing in the Streets are two favorites.

| And it’s all a lie, what they say about stability
It scares me sometimes, the emptiness I see in my eyes
All the kid’s names I’ve ever liked are tied to tragedy
And I don’t want my children growing up to be
Anything like me
