There's an oldish Lord of the New Church lyric, something like "I tore my
eyes out 'cause I couldn't stand to see you in someone else's dreams."

The Smiths:  "If a ten-ton truck kills the both of us, To die by your
side is such a wonderful way to die/And if a double-decker bus crashes
into us, to die by your side, well, the pleasure, the privelege is mine."
(There is a light...)

Jello Biafra & Mojo Nixon:  "Love me, love me, love me, I'm a Liberal."

Wally Pleasant:  "I'm self-righeous, pretentious, and politically-correct.
My views are slightly to the left of Karl Marx and Bertoldt Brecht."
(Hippie's lament)

Suicidal Tendencies:  "How can you say I'm stupid when you don't
understand what I say?  And how can you call me evil -- have you spoken
to God today?  What did He say?" (Pledge your allegience)

Suicidal Tendencies:  "All I wanted was a Pepsi.  And she wouldn't give me
one!  Just one Pepsi!"  (Institutionalized)

ABC:
He:  I thought you loved me but it seems you don't care.
She:  Oh, Martin, I care enough to know I can never love you.
(Poison arrow?)

Therapy?:  "And you can't help my life.  But you can hide the knives." (Knives)

Todd Rundgren:  "But it wouldn't have made any difference if you really
loved me.  How could you love me when it couldn't really make any difference,
if you really loved me....enough to believe me, enough not to leave me,
enough not to need a reason to be unhappy with me, and leave me regretting
ever wanting you." (It wouldn't have made any difference)

eh, that's enough for now

The entire song "Wish you Were Here" by Pink Floyd, but if I have to narrow it:

"We're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl year after year.
 Runnign over the same old ground, what have we found? The same old fears.
 Wish you were here....

"Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky> Tongue tied and twisted just an 
 Earth-bound misfit, I. Pink Floyd-"Learning to Fly"

"Baptized in electronic water
 Prodigal sons and beautiful daughters with smiles and bows and rosy cheeks
 and the righteous bath, Death of the freaks.
 Do you feel the power...
 From the man who sounds so reassuring, completely firm and reassuring
like he's lived a thousand times before and seen the world from shore to shore
 with the calmness and tranquility that oozes credibility
 with the wizdom and the confidence that scream out common sense
and it makes you feel just like like a babe daddy holding you tight and safe
 Hush babe everything's allright and daddy's gonna stay with you tonight
Now he's got you by the balls he can sell you anything at all
 from morality to diamond rings to genocide to magazines
 from religion to cosmology to the death of a democracy." Oingo Boingo.

After reading Steve's (juggler's) list, I almost panicked!  I can't type well 
enough to quote an entire album! 

my list may be a little eclectic....

selling skin, selling God; the numbers look the same on the credit card.'--
          -Spreading the Disease- Queensryche
'I may have said you're beautiful, but you know I'm just a liar.'--
          -from the song of the same name- Flesh for Lulu
'I want to fuck you like an animal; I want to feel you from the inside.'--
          -Closer- NIN
'Why did Constantinople get the works; that's nobody's business but the Turks.'
          -Istanbul (hell! you all know it!!)-TMBG
'You're dressed to kill and guess who's dying...'
          -Dance Away- Roxy Music
'In my time, too much love has made me sad for so long.'--
          -Take a Chance with Me- Roxy Music
'Is it raining in New York on Fifth Avenue; and off Broadway after dark, love 
 the lights don't you; I could walk you through the park if you're feeling 
 blue, or whatever.'--
          -To Turn You On- Roxy Music
'Like a dream in the night, who can say where we're going.'--
          -More Than This- Roxy Music
'What did I do, what did I say to turn your angel eyes my way.'--
          -Angel Eyes- Jeff Healy
'I want you, I need you, but there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you.  Don't
 be sad, two out of three ain't bad.'--
          -Two out of Three...- Meatloaf
'I wanna put my pink poodle in your microwave.'--
          -Hard on From Hell- Buck Naked & the Bare-Bottom Boys
