Song Lyrics!

Hi guys, I thought it might be a cool idea to have a thread where we can post random inspirational verses of quotes from Songs/Musicals/Poems. Please only include appropriate lyrics, and they can be about anything you choose. Also, try not to include entire songs, just maybe a few lines. Thanks!

Just because you find that life's not fair,

It doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it.

If you always take it on the chin and wear it,

Nothing will change.

Just because I find myself in this story,

It doesn't mean that everything is written for me.

If I think the ending is fixed already,

I might as well be saying, I think that it's ok,

And that's not right.

That's from Matilda the Musical. 8D

I think it will look really cool, eventually, with lines and lines of amazing song lyrics listed all down this thread. So yeah. Thanks guys, and PLEASE POST!!!

*clears throat* sorry.....

Here are some lyrics I love.

So I will call upon Your name

and keep my eyes above the waves

when oceans rise

My soul will rest in Your embrace

for I am Yours and You are mine

Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders

let me walk upon the waters

wherever You would call me 

take me deeper than my feet could ever wander 

and my faith will be made stronger

in the presence of my Savior 

That's from Oceans. I love it so much.

YESESSSSSSSSSS!!! That's my favorite Christian song ever.  I feel like it sounds beautiful even if you're not a Christian.

Great idea! 

Oh, I don't know what you've been told
But this gal right here's gonna rule the world
Yeah, that is where I'm gonna be because I wanna be
No, I don't wanna sit still, look pretty
You get off on your nine to five
Dream of picket fences and trophy wives
But no, I'm never gonna be 'cause I don't wanna be

No, I don't wanna sit still look pretty 

Sit Still, Look Pretty by Daya

I LOVE Sit Still Look Pretty! It's so good and I love that it's a popular new-ish song but it's still inspiring and really means something.

Here's another!

Be the light in the crack, 

be the one that's been there on the camel's back,

slow to anger, quick to laugh

be more heart and less attack

Be the wheels, not the track

be the wanderer that's coming back

leave the past right where it's at

be more heart and less attack

the more you take the less you have

'Cause it's you in the mirror staring back

quick to let go, slow to react

be more heart and less attack

 

 

More Heart, Less Attack by Needtobreathe. Can you tell I'm a fan yet? XD ;-)

Most of what I listen to is Nightcore or what most people call "Emo" music to my annoyance, but here we go: 

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend 

Somewhere along in the bitterness

And I would have stayed up with you all night

Had I known how to save a life.

That's from How to Save a Life by the Fray. Here's another: 

I was never one for pretenders, 

Everything I tried to be,

Just wouldn't settle in.

If I told you what I was, Would you turn your back on me? 

And if I seem dangerous, 

Would you be scared? 

I get the feeling just because, 

Everything I touch isn't dark enough,

If this problem lies in me.

I'm only a man with a chamber who's got me,

I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me,

A monster, a monster, I've turned into a monster.

Thats from Monster by Imagine Dragons. Ok, I'm going to go now. Nice songs everyone!

Now is the time to seize the day,

Stare down the odds and seize the day. 

Minute by minute, 

That's how you win it,

We will find a way. 

But let us seize the day. 

Courage cannot erase our fear!

Courage is when we face our fear. 

Tell those with power,

Safe in their tower, 

"We will find a way,"

But let us seize the day. 

Behold the brave battalion!

that stands side-by-side!

Too few in number, 

Yet too proud to hide. 

And say to the others!

who did not follow through,

"You're still our brothers, 

"and we will fight for you."

Seize the Day! from NEWSIES the Broadway musical.
