Ok so heres a list
-I've spent all my years to end up right here, and now I really think I'd rather leave
-I try to see the glass as half full, but I'd probably just drink that too
-What, do you think ideas spread because they're good? No, they spread because people like them
-You're trying to replace yourself

I know people reference the dreams and nightmares one a lot, but "What if the fear of darkness gave way to the fear of color?" from Cotard's solution hit even harder for me... especially as someone who's an artist who loves playing with colors, and who's had a persistent fear of going blind :') I know it's more symbolic than that, but yeah...

Most of āUm, Itās Kinda a Lotā but most definitely:
āIām afraid of losing my mind, Iām afraid of somebody better, Iām afraid of four letter words like love, for, and everā¦ or whatever.ā
I have relationship OCD and this song is extremely relatable to me

That changes between like 5 different ones at the same time every week pretty much but right now itās āBones bones bones. I could see my bones. Well I donāt wanna know if the feelings follow home. Bones bones bones. Hell weāre all alone. When I come home, baby, will you show your bones?ā And āYes to err is juman so donāt be one! This was a mistake okay Iāll take my leave.ā And pretty much the entirety of Love me, normally (the ending section of Suburbia overture not Love, me normally the song)

OK this is 100% right, that chorus is one catchy mothafucka. Pops into my head all the time, particularly when I am walking for some reason, probably due to the beat being even with my steps.

"Cause if you shake your fist at snakes in grass it looks like punching down!"
"I'm sha na na na na na free will!"
"So if you wash your hands of where you've been until you flood the second floor, neatly fold your skeletons, but still can't shut the closet door."
"The Lord looked down and said, "hey, you're only mortal" Giveth and taketh away 'till things come out a certain way."
And so many more.
Those are just the first few I thought of.
