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.
Metacortechs, This emptiness fills me so why don’t I feel free
Rift - Singularity ft. Jenn Lucas
XYZinferno, Without your love my life aint nothing but this carnival of rust
- Carnival of Rust by Poets of the Fall
EDIT: Another line I find to fit the bill, from the same song:
And more than ever, I hope to never fall, where enough is not the same it was before
RBWells, There are so many. Father John Misty, the cheeky bastard, writes lyrics so well. In Goodbye Mr. Blue -
When the last time was our last time, if only then I knew that the last time was our last time, would have told you that the last time comes too soon.
And from The Head and the Heart back when they were making magic with Josiah Johnson -
The world keeps spinning, a little too fast. If we don’t slow down soon it might not last. So just for a moment, just for a moment, let’s be still.
Feathercrown, weezer buddy holly riff
hulemy, Throw yourself into the unknown, with pace and a fury defiant. Clothe yourself in beauty untold, and see life as a means to a triumph
FrostbyteIX, “The world made me feel like I lost myself, my own homies tellin me that I need help, if you got a solution for me you probly HOLLA AT YA BOY IF YA KNOW SOMEBODY” Hopsin
zakobjoa, 
Disrespect your surroundings!
Mr. Highway’s Thinking About the End by A Day to Remember
subspaceinterferents, 
Now you come to me and you’ve got green streaks in your hair
You walk like Greta Garbo, but you talk like Yogi Bear
What’s going on? What’s going on?
I really don’t believe what’s going on; what’s going on?
— Al Stewart
