I’m not talking about the full lyrics, but just a phrase or a sentence that you feel is right up your alley.

One of my personal favourites is from Barmy by The Fall: I got everything I want except for money.

    Paul Simon, Crazy Love. The line is “sad as a lonely, little wrinkled balloon.” Even as a kid, I always found that image so evocative.

      From the same album…

      “Losing love is like a window in your heart,
      Everybody sees you’re blown apart”

      Such a devastating lyric.
