/mu/ decides the best lyric OAT

not sure how many levels of irony OP is on right now, but GOAT lyrics thread? Starting w a /mu/ favorite

>Pa pointed out to me for the hundredth time tonight
>the way the ladle leads to a dirt red bullet of light
>squint skyward and listen
>loving him, we move within his borders
>just asterisms in the stars' set order
>we could stand for a century
>staring, with our heads cocked in the broad daylight, at this thing:
>joy, landlocked in bodies that dont keep
>dumbstruck in the sweetness of being 'til we don't be
>so take this, and eat this.

>tfw recently realized that i've been mishearing my favourite lyric for years

the one i can think of that's recent is

>I love you more than the world can contain in its lonely and ramshackled head

>Every time I cry about your transience, I replace you with the thought of the growing moon as I climb towards it, tell myself "it's not too late," and rest assured that I won't ever have to care about anyone, because it's too late and with you it gets harder to realize it gets harder. Do ever think about...you promised. I want to die when you're not here, because I'm convinced that everyone else thinks I'm a dick. My ideals fog up my windshield and I crash into the houses they depict in their songs.
I want to be a part of you again, face the crowds and turn back again, rediscover why we're turning
back away, from a town you say has lost all of its meaning, in a way, I can't see the town I only see frustration, and see a landscape, a blank, raw canvas. And yes, we're all our own co-pilots, in our cockpits made of tin, and when we think about each other we despise the states we're in. I can't tell you that it's better, because I'm, truly, not that sure, but I think that this is better because this way we are sure that we're not happy yet.

Yeah but listen to the arrangement and orchestration on that record and tell me it sounds like a 17 year old did it (emo leanings notwithstanding ofc)
