And the summer became the fall
I was not ready for the winter
It makes no difference at all
'Cause I wear boots all summer long
And when I call
Will you walk gently
Thru my shadow
The ones who sing at night
The ones you dream of
The ones who walk away
Capes pulled around them tight
Cryin' for the night
And so the winter is really here now
And the blankets that I love
I am surrounded sometimes
By too much love
-s.nicks
Well, everybody's got a story to tell
And everybody's got a wound to be healed
I want to believe there's beauty here
'Cause oh I get so tired of holding on
I can't let go, I can't move on
I want to believe there's meaning here
How many times have you heard me cry out
"God please take this"?
How many times have you given me strength to
Just keep breathing?
Oh, I need you
God, I need you now.
-plumb
Guess I wasn't the best one to ask
Me myself with my face pressed
Up against love's glass
To see the shiny toy I've been hoping for
The one I never can afford
The wide world spins and spits turmoil
And the nations toil peace
But the paws of fear upon your chest
Only love can soothe that beast
And my words are paper tigers
No match for the predator of pain inside you
I say love will come to you
Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true
-e. sailers
You come from far away
With pictures in your eyes
Of coffeeshops and morning streets
In the blue and silent sunrise
-s. vega
And the days go by
Like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own
I begin again
-s.nicks
You're dangerous, 'cause you're honest
You're dangerous, you don't know what you want
Well you left my heart empty as a vacant lot
For any spirit to haunt
-u2
Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore
-the smiths
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free

We can't fall any further if
We can't feel ordinary love
And we cannot reach any higher if
We can't deal with ordinary love
~Ordinary Love by U2
---
The writer stares with glassy eyes
Defies the empty page
His beard is white, his face is lined
And streaked with tears of rage
Thirty years ago, how the words would flow
With passion and precision
But now his mind is dark and dulled
By sickness and indecision
~Losing It by Rush (Written by Neil Peart)

There are many songs I don't even like but they have a single line or two that cut so deep you don't forget them.
1. "Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive." -- Iris, The Goo Good Dolls.
2. "Now you get watch her leave out the window... Guess that's why they call it window pa(i)ne." -- Love the Way You Lie, Eminem
3. "I did behave, I saved you every time." -- Fool For Love, Tegan & Sara
4. "It's no better to be safe than sorry... Take on me." -- Take On Me, a-ha
5. "So I go, and I will not be back here again... I am gone as the day is fading." -- White Houses, Vanessa Carlton
6. "Can you hear me?
Am I getting through tonight?
Can You see him?
Can You make him feel alright?
If You can hear me,
Let me take his place somehow.
See, he's not just any one... He's... my... son." -- Mark Schultz

So if I stand let me stand on the promise
That you will pull me through
And if I can't, let me fall on the grace
That first brought me to You
And if I sing let me sing for the joy
That has born in me these songs
And if I weep let it be as a man
Who is longing for his home
-Rich Mullins
Will you guide me now for I can't see a reason
for the suffering and this long misery
What if every living soul could be upright and strong?
Well then I do imagine
There will be (sorrow)
Yeah there will be (sorrow)
And there will be sorrow no more
When all soldiers lay their weapons down
or when all kings and all queens relinquish their crowns
Or when the only true messiah rescues us
from ourselves it's easy to imagine
There will be (sorrow)
Yeah there will be (sorrow)
And there will be sorrow no more
-Bad Religion
The flames and smoke climbed out of every window
And disappeared with everything that you held dear
And you shed not a single tear for the things that you didn't need
'Cause you knew you were finally free
-Death Cab for Cutie
That you will pull me through
And if I can't, let me fall on the grace
That first brought me to You
And if I sing let me sing for the joy
That has born in me these songs
And if I weep let it be as a man
Who is longing for his home

Your dreams and all your visions, Won't feed a hungry child
And all the vain philosophies, Have left your mind defiled
You declare as myth and legend, What stands before your eyes
The faith is sure, but you prefer the lies
Welcome to the war
There is no neutral ground
Welcome to the last world war
Welcome to the war
No escape can be found
Tell me who you're fighting for
"Welcome to the War" A.D Kerry Livgren

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hopes apart
And they turn your dreams to shame
- I dreamed a dream
The light escapes her room tonight.
Every little moment tells her, now it's time.
Opening a new scar, closing the wounds with a knife.
No more crying in the lanterns light...
Leave with the first light, go when you still see the moon.
Run for the sunlight, gate is now open for you.
Dancing on the path and singing now you got away.
You can reach the goals that you have set from now on , every day.
There is no way you would go back now, oh no, those days are past.
Life is waiting for the one who loves to live, and it is not a secret...
The Shades of darkness filled her life.
In every single corner you cannot turn right.
Night could pass for a day, in her lack of faith, she let it all fade away.
Once more, a cry in the lanterns light...
Lost in the sunlight, leave, you will not see the moon.
Walk for the first time, no one has waited for you...
Dancing on the path and singing now you got away.
You can reach the goals that you have set from now on, every day.
There is no way you would go back now, oh no, those days are past.
Life is waiting for the one who loves to live, and it is not a secret...
Dancing on the path and singing now you got away.
You can reach the goals that you have set from now on, every day.
There is no way you would go back now, oh no, those days are past.
Life's there for the ones who love to live and take it all, for it is free...
Dancing on the path and singing now you got away.
You can reach the goals that you have set from now on, every day.
There is no way you would go back now, oh no, those days are past.
Life is waiting for the one who loves to live, and it is not a secret...
Victoria's secret
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain
- Stand in the rain
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hopes apart
And they turn your dreams to shame
- I dreamed a dream
The light escapes her room tonight.
Every little moment tells her, now it's time.

One of my favorite lines is from the song "Witness" by Christian rap artist God's Servant:
There ain't no city or coast I come to represent
I rep the God disclosed in both His Testaments
I love it!!! That is what all rap music should be about.
Someone put the song on YouTube here:

Tears stream, down your face
When you leaving something you cannot replace
Tears stream, down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes.
"Fix You", Coldplay (Album - X&Y, Released - 2005)
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Could ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I stand.
"In Christ Alone", Keith Getty & Stuart Townend

not "favorite" but this is a line that struck me as profound and stuck with me for a long time...
"the law is the law and everybody on earth obeys it"
it makes me think of how apart from the Mosaic Law, God has set in this universe certain unchangeable 'laws' that apply to everyone, not because they try to obey, or should obey, but because this is the way it is and no one can help but 'be obedient' to such law - like the wages of sin being death, and the Lord being faithful to those that put their trust in Him. this is a different concept than "thou shalt not steal" -- more like "whoever leads into captivity goes into captivity" and "the wicked will fall into their own snares"
food for thought
