I like the ones in my siggy - "Then again if it were any colder I could disengage
If I were any older I would act my age but I don't Think that you'd believe me." - Girl Anachronism
Bad Habit -
"happiness is just a gash away"
"when i jab a sharpened object in
choirs of angels seem to sing
hymns of hate in memorandum"
"no-one cares if your back is bleeding"
Slide -
"but her smile is wide and her legs are spread wider
her hair growing long and her hips getting larger"
"the splinters are painful but she doesn't feel it"
"her eyes are now closing her sleeves are unrolling
up past her head and her veins are all showing"

"I'd like to do more than survive,
I'd like to rub it in your face." - Good Day
"Hello I love you won't you tell me your name
Hello I'm good for nothing, will you love me just the same?" - Perfect Fit
"I can even take him in the bath" - Coin Operated Boy
"I'm taking back the number of the beast
Because 6 is not a pretty number
8 or 3 are definitely better." - My Alcoholic Friends
And so many more. I don't know, the Dresden Dolls, for me, their lyrics are just so relatable. Sometimes I feel like if they hadn't written the words down first I may have. But then again, I'm could never be as brilliant a song writer as Amanda Palmer.

I love all their lyrics!! But, I suppose if I had to play favorites...
"Seven stops in seven different countries
seven page itineraries
memories thick as bloody marys- jesus, jospeh, bloody hell!"
"you wear your terror on your sleeve for all the men i haven't met (yet)
i had oliver in potsdam you had elanor in amsterdam
we're keeping track so carefully we've missed the state we're in completely
honestly your foot is out the door and i've got scores of offers elsewhere and keep both
feet planted firmly in the air
and tomorrow you can totally erase me from your mind but trust me everything is fine"
"and maybe you'll go mad
and maybe ill go gray
and pack up to berlin
or maybe it wont matter anyway
we'll find out that your mom was right and you'll admit you're really gay"
"there is nothing in the world that we can count on
even that we will wake up is an assumption
but i know for a fact that i loved someone
and for about a year he lived in boston..." - All from Boston
"and i loved you in bright orange
and in violet and in green
and i loved you in such colors
as your eyes have never ever seen" - Colorblind
ALL of Girl Anachronism. ^__^
ALL of Glass Slipper.
"and oh mrs. o
can you teach us how to keep from getting cold
out we go and you watch us as we face the falling snow
what a show with our hairdryers aimed heavenwards
and fifty foot extension cords
you really have a way with words"
"eveything they ever told us
shakes our faith and breaks their promise
but you can stop the truth from leaking
if you never stop believing......" - Mrs. O
"If your mouth keeps going where your mind won't go
You don't want to choke so chew it slowly
Nibble the edges on the kitchen floor
If it suits your taste, taste some more
If you worry that it's bitter like a barbie doll
Hold your nose and swallow it whole
If you worry that it's all gonna go to your hips
Roll it 'round on your rosy lips
If you worry that it's all gonna go to your thighs
Close your eyes for a big surprise.... " - Mary's Surgeon
All of Blake Says. AMAZING song. ^__^
"Bright, my little bluesboy
You smile too much
Let's see a nice frown
And don't touch so much" - Bluesboy (Though, I think this is a cover...of a German song, i think. I could be wrong. sweatdrop )
"And as for her we heard she had a little accident
Someonetipped her over and her face received a fatal dent
So it's all over because who likes imperfection?
Her only hope is that it might become a fashion" - Echo Gallery
"How could you look the way you do when we can do so much for you
A drug for eyes, a drug for hips , a drug to give you sweeter lips to kiss
A tug, a screw, a pull, a twist, the drug that makes you prettyist." - June is Busting Out All Over (WONDERFUL song! The story behind it is so awesome, too. ^__^ )
"When I woke up
My arm was off
My eye was missing
My face was cracked
My mouth was rusting
My dress was ripped
A hand was stuck
This mechanism
Seems to be broken
But pull the string
Still I can talk
'My name is Kaledrina,
And I love you very much...' " - Kaledrina (Gosh, I LOVE this song so much. It's so tragically beautiful.)
"And I'm sick when I breathe
And I wish you would leave
At the very least have an abortion
I don’t mean to damn life but
I don’t think it’s right
For a woman to breed for attention" - Pro-vanity
"And the last thing I'd recall
Her body standing on the stone
Sandy wiping her grey eyes
I was pleased and frightened
To see a grownup woman cry" - Sandy's Song
"Goodbye
Olive sky
I am crying all the time
There there
Don’t despair
We will find your sheep somewhere…" - The Sheep Song
Of course, there's more, but by now I've probably taken up a good amount of the page! sweatdrop
heart heart heart

"Choirs of angels seem to sing
Hymns of hate in memorandum"
"And sappy songs about sex and cheating
Bland accounts of two lovers meeting
Make me want to give mankind a beating"
"Every exit’s an ex-boyfriend memory lane
Every major street’s a minor heart attack"
"And drive that Cherokee straight up its Trail of Tears"
"I'll never let him go, and I'll never be alone
Go, and I'll never be alone
Go, and I'll never be alone
Go, and I'll never be alone"
"This bridge was written to make you feel smittener
With my sad picture of girl getting bitterer"
"I can even take him in the -- bath!"
"And you can tell
From the state of my room
That they let me out too soon"
"But I might be catching so don't touch
You'll start believing youre immune to gravity and stuff"
"Someone poke her and see if she's moving, okay?
I think we've lost her!"
"Sing for the children shooting the children sing
Sing for the teachers who told you that you couldn't sing"
"Sing for the kid with the phone who refuses to sing"
"Don't worry, I've got you
The orange man got you..."
"I could make a dress
A robe fit for a prince
I could clothe a continent
But I can't sew a stitch"
"I can write a song
But I can't sing in key
I can play piano
But I never learned to read"
And others :3

My favourite verse...ever.....I love the words and I especially love the way she sings it....
From Truce...
"... I am the tower around which you orbited,
I am not proud, I am just taking orders,
I fall to the ground within hours of impact,
I hit back when hit, and attack when attacked
and I am an accident waiting to happen,
I'm laughing like mad as you strangle the captain
my place may be taken, but make no mistake
from a little black box I can say without shame
that you've lost, that you've lost
Do you know what you've lost?"

i can't seperate a single line away form the masterpiece of glass slipper so i'll just post the whole. damn. thing.
no one's asking, to go dancing, its not like that anymore,
its romantic, if they mean it, when they shut your fingers in the door
its a gory, sort of story, thats been told a hundred times before
it gets tricky, dont be picky, if the slipper fits you wear it, whore
how many tips can i take home tonight without them getting mad
how many stitches do you think it takes to fix a cut that bad
how many minutes until midnight and you get your eyesight back
not to knock it, i've been off it, never moving very much at once
its been awkward, i still offer it when its that time of
other girls shower, but i give out flowers
to curious strangers who throw dollars at, my, feet
how many crimes can i try spotting dry before it leaves a stain
how many times say that i love you til it doesnt mean a thing
how many fittings must i sit through with my big feet blistering
how many times until it strips me, and my big mouth strikes again
i'm not asking, to go dancing, i'm not that dumb anymore
its exhausting, to keep smiling, when your toes are bleeding on the floor
its a gory, sort of story, thats been told a hundred times before
don't be sorry, just ignore me, because honestly,
i'm too sore from fitting exactly to ride into setting suns aching to
stand on my own, two, feet,
how many wishes do i still have left to fix the way it ends
how many princes do you think
it takes to put a girl like this, back together again
how many instances can you point out where i was less than kind
how many happy endings do you need to change your ******** mind
and how much time do we have left before it's midnight and
you see that i was never the right size?

i love the lyrics of my alcholic friends particularly the ones about "trying not to be ashamed, and not to know the name of who is waking up beside me,"
"you can tell from the state of my room that they let me out too soon,
and the pills that I ate came a couple years too late," that is very indentifyable

O_o thought i posted in here.. oh well guess i didn't
obviously i cant list them all since i love them all
so i'll list my most favorite. and on some i put why.
can't you just fix it for me, it's gone ******** i'll give you anything if
you can make the damn thing work
(most everything in my life is like this)
i can take a vow
and i can wear a ring
and i can make you promises but
they won't mean a thing
(i'm scared to death of marriage)
a ring around the roses
eveybody knows it
i will sing your fears
if you sing my neurosis
s**t lover! off brusher!
jaded bitter joy crusher!
failure has made you so cruel….
oh god
i’m thirty
no, i’m ten
i’m seventeen
and a bank of boston beauty queen....
and you can tell
from the state of my room
that they let me out too soon
and the pills that i ate
came a couple years too late
and ive got some issues to work through
there i go again
pretending to be you
make-believing
that i have a soul beneath the surface
trying to convince you
it was accidentally on purpose
i am an accident waiting to happen
i'm laughing like mad while you strangle the captain
my place may be taken, but make no mistake
from a little black black box i can say without shame
that you've lost
do you know what you've lost?
i know its dark for good
i never listen when i should
you only see in black and white
so go on back to your own kind
and i'll go back to mine
that's all... for now. i'll probly edit this later.
