    Let's think...
    I still have no idea what I'm doing!... Fuck...

    Well then we'll see what they say and we'll do what they do
    But that doesn't mean a goddamn thing

    Those are the first two I could think of. There's loads others though.

    There's also Cat Stevens 'Don't be shy', which helps me when I feel down.

    "Don't be shy just let your feelings roll on by
    Don't wear fear or nobody will know you're there
    Just lift your head, and let your feelings out instead
    And don't be shy, just let your feeling roll on by
    "

    Basically all of Iris, by the goo goo dolls, but particularly this: "You can't fight the tears that ain't coming/ Or the moment of truth in your lies."

    I am not the kind of girl,
    Who should be rudely bargin' in on a white veil occasion,
    But you are not the kind of boy,
    Who should be marryin' the wrong girl
    I sneak in and see your friends,
    And her snotty little family, all dressed in pastel,
    And she is yelling at a bridesmaid,
    Somewhere back inside a room,
    Wearing a gown shaped like a pastry Taylor Swift - Speak Now

    "Outside the blast furnace erupts again
    And dark red rivers
    Filled our veins with frenzy
    We could tear up the floors
    And find all the things we'd ever lost
    And the fire burns in our jack boots
    So we chase the explosions
    From horizon to horizon"

    Every damn Melanie Martinez song has one line that destroys me every time I listen to it... I think it's fair to say I'm Melanie-sexual. :eusa_danc

    For starters, pretty much the entirety (but mostly the chorus) of "Dollhouse";
    Places, places, get in your places / Get in your dress and put on your doll faces / Everyone thinks that we're perfect / Please don't let them look through the curtains / D-O-L-L-H-O-U-S-E, I see things that nobody else sees

    And then from the second verse of "Soap";
    Should've never said the word 'love' / Threw a toaster in the bathtub / I'm sick of all the games I have to play

    The second verse of "Sippy Cup";
    Pill diet, pill diet, if they give you a new pill then you will buy it / If they say to kill yourself you will try it / All the makeup in the world won't make you less insecure / Got weights in your pockets when you go to the doctor's / Your favorite candy's cotton, that's why your teeth are rotten

    And the bridge to "Carousel".
    And it's all fun and games till someone falls in love / But you've already bought a ticket, and there's no turning back now

    Rammstein-Haifisch
    Original:
    Und der Haifisch, der hat Tränen
    Und die laufen vom Gesicht,
    doch der Haifisch lebt im Wasser -
    so die Tränen sieht man nicht.
    Translation:
    And the shark, it has teardrops
    And they run down its face,
    but the shark is living in water -
    so the teardrops one doesn't see.

    Hey baby
    Whether it's now or later
    I've got you
    You can't shake me
    Cause I got you on my radar
    Whether you like it or not
    It ain't gonna stop
    Cause I got you on my radar
    Cause I got you on my radar

    "Two minutes later."

    I don't know why, but the same line is in two songs that I love by two different bands...
    "Two Minutes Later" -Depeche Mode
    "Girls On Film" -Duran Duran
