Cookie Fortune-Sized Lyric Snippets

If you're a Discord friend of mine, you've probably at some point seen me put these as my status. These are specific parts of songs that really poke at something amidst my consciousness.

Humanity

"But I'm breathing so I guess I'm still alive..."

...even if signs seem to tell me otherwise. What are you living for if it is only to not die?
Prison Sex - TOOL

"But I'm inadequate, have I gotten that point across yet? How original."

I love how the rest of the song is just the best bars you've ever heard and out of nowhere it drops this REAL line.
I'm Bo Yo - Bo Burnham

"Hello world, would you like me a little better if they were white like yours?"

Alien Blues - Vundabar

"I am not a vessel for your good intent."

Tongues & Teeth - The Crane Wives

"Me, The Chosen One? They chose me! And I didn't graduate from fuckin' high school."

Rosetta Stoned - TOOL

"Seems like I point the finger just to make a point nowadays."

PRIDE. - Kendrick Lamar

"The cure for clinical depression is a lobotomy."

Leper Friend - Dog Fashion Disco

"This life is punctuated like a texting session between two overheated, insecure teens."

Poor Grammar - Roar

"Those living for death will die by their own hand."

Foreshadowing?? 0.o
Annihilation - A Perfect Circle

"Was it something I said, or was it something I did?"

A bit of an underwhelming line in and of itself but the song it comes from is orgasmically pleasing.
Takes 2 To Kill Me - Teenage Disaster

"We can blame it on that I'm young, naive and really miserable."

Groan - Dazey and the Scouts

Loss

"If this time was the last time, could I hold you...all life long?"

Die with Me - Type O Negative

"I want a love that falls as fast as a body from the balcony."

Townie - Mitski

"Pining, it tends to wreck you."

Timbers shatter as your hull scatters and you feel like an inconvenience.
Backwards - The Rare Occasions

Not Depressing

"After the storm's when the flowers bloom."

After The Storm (feat. Tyler, The Creator & Bootsy Collins) - Kali Uchis

"Be my reminder here that I am not alone in this body, this body holding me."

Parabola - TOOL

"If you love me, can you love your everything too, for me?"

String Theocracy - Mili
