can i put lines from songs in my novel? I want one of my characters to say something to another character that's taken from a deathcab for cutie song.
Typically no, unless it has a wider relevance to the story itself. Death Cab For Cutie are quite awful so I don't see them being used outside of terrible college kid novellas and pandering young adult fiction

wtf. only 30 somethings listen to them. the part I wanted to add was "that love is watching someone die"
30-somethings that are desperately trying to reclaim their college years where the biggest problem was a girl not fucking them.
What Sarah Said isn't that insightful, at least I think. "Who's Going To Watch You Die" works well as a refrain but lyrically the song isn't great. I'd avoid it.
sure you can so long as you quote it...do you know where the band name of death cab for cutie comes from?
Will it ever be published? If not do what the fuck you want. If yes do it anyway then give credit where it's due.
