Best Lyrics from Seattle?

AiC - Rooster (definitely best song about Vietnamese war)

Nutshell, by AIC

And yet I find, and yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be my own
I'd be better dead

Or Would? (Also AIC)

Know me, broken by my master
Teach thee young child love thereafter

Into the flood again
same old trip and once again
So I made a big mistake
try to see it once my way!

it's really hard to choose...:/

Nutshell (AIC) - "If I can't be my own I'd feel better dead"
Down in a hole (AIC) - "I'd like to fly but my wings have been so denied"
Black (PJ) - "I know someday you'll have a beautiful life I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky But why why why can't it be, oh can't it be mine..."
Brother (AIC) - "You were always so far away I know that pain So don't you run away like I used to do"
Garden (PJ) - I will walk with my hands bound I will walk with my face blood I will walk with my shadow flag Into your garden...garden of stone"
Thin Air (PJ) - "There's a light when my baby's in my arms..."
others: Rusty cage, Fell on black days (Soundgarden), Got me wrong, Dirt, Rain when I die (AIC), Sth in the way (Nirvana) and all PJ's songs...
The list will be too long if I mention all of my favourite lyrics 'cause I love PJ and Alice...

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
i feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mullato!
An Albino!
A mosquito!
My libido!

Nirvana - Come as you are
Come as you are, as you were, as I want you to be.
As a friend, as a friend, as an old Enemy.
Take your time, hurry up, choice is yours, don't be late.
Take a rest, as a friend, as an old Memoria

Nirvana - In Bloom
Sell the kids for food
Weather changes moods
Spring is here again
Reproductive glands

He’s the one
Who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he don't know what it means
don't know what it means
when I say

He’s the one
Who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he don't know what it means
don't know what it means
when I say



Nirvana - Something in the way
Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from my ceiling
It's okay to eat fish
'Cause they don't have any feelings



Pearl Jam - Black
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, can't it be mine

Pearl Jam - Yellow Ledbetter
Unsealed on a porch a letter sat.
Then you said I wanna leave it again.
Once I saw him on a beach of weathered sand. And on the sand; I wanna leave it again.
On a weekend I wanna wish it all away.
And they called and I said that "I want what I said" and then I call out again.
And the reason oughta' leave her calm, I know.
I said i don't know whether i'm the boxer or the bag.
Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch? Yeah, but they don't wave.
I see them round the front way. Yeah.

And I know, and I know. I don't want to stay.
Make me cry...

I see... Ooh I don't know why there's something else.
I wanna drum it all away...
Oh, I said, "I don't, I don't know whether I was the boxer or the bag."

Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch? Yeah, but they don't wave.
I see them round the front way. Yeah.
And I know, and I know. I don't wanna stay at all.
I don't wanna stay. Yeah

Alice in Chains - Down in a hole
Down in a hole, feelin' so small
Down in a hole, losin' my soul
I'd like to fly,
But my wings have been so denied
