My Own "Lyrics to Live By"

Those who know me well, know that I am all about lyrics. I write them on the walls, fill countless notebooks with them, write them on my arms, quote them at random times and use them as Facebook statuses to the point that everyone thinks I'm clinically insane. Lyrics are pretty much my favourite things in the entire world, no joke. So here are some lyrics that I find inspirational, or just SO true:
"Give some meanings
To the means to your end." - Interpol, Not Even Jail

"You can turn off the sun,
But I'm still gonna shine." - Jason Mraz, The Remedy

"Knock me down, I'll get right
Back up again. I'll come back stronger
Than a powered-up Pac-man." - Kaiser Chiefs, Oh My God

"Upon us all a little rain must fall." - Led Zeppelin, The Rain Song

"Remember what it felt like to be alone." - MGMT, Future Reflections

"True perfection has to be imperfect." - Oasis, Little By Little

"You can have it all,
But how much do you want it?" - Oasis, Supersonic

"I'll have my way, in my own time.
I'll have my say, my star will shine." - Oasis, Magic Pie (Oasis is just amazing, people)

"You've got to change the world
And use this chance to be heard. Your time is now." - Muse, Butterflies and Hurricanes

"You've got more than money and sense my friend,
You've got heart." -  Noah and the Whale, L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.

"All you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be." - Pink Floyd, Breathe

"Ashes and diamonds, foe and friend,
We are all equal in the end." - Pink Floyd, Two Suns in the Sunset

"Immerse your soul in love!" - Radiohead, Street Spirit (Fade Out) - you were just waiting for them, huh?

"If you try the best you can, the best you can is good enough." - Radiohead, Optimistic

"I got nothing to do today but smile." - Simon and Garfunkel, The Only Living Boy in New York

"It's a hard life to live, so live it well." - The Kooks, Ooh La

"We're not enemies; we just disagree." - The Strokes, Is This It

"Ima do the things that I wanna do, I ain't got a thing to prove to you." - Weezer, Pork and Beans

"Nobody else is stronger than I am, yesterday I moved a mountain
I'd like to be your hero. I am a mighty little man!" - Steve Burns, Mighty Little Man

"Stop whispering, start shouting." - Radiohead, Stop Whispering

"I'm not a vegetable, I will not control myself." - Radiohead, Vegetable
Well I could come up with tons more but I'll end it there for the time being. Toodle-pip!
