Lyrics that strike a chord

Sometimes, a song sticks in your mind, not because you like the music but because the lyrics describe your life - not just in a 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' way (Thank You Cyndi Lauper!) but it reminds you of how you wanted your life to be or how it was!

I Hate Luv Storys - Sadka - Ab Maine Kal Apne Tere Sang Soche Hai


Lady Antebellum -  Stars Tonight - Guys with white pearl buttons looking just like Springsteen


Kings of Leon - Revelry - just know it was you all along who had a hold of my heart,but the demon in me was the best of friends from the start, so the time we shared,it was precious to me,all the while I was dreaming of revelry!


John Mayer - Heartbreak Warfare - How come the only way to know how high you get me
is to see how far I fall?


Lady Antebellum - Need You Now - It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now


Dido - Here With Me - And I don't want to move a thing, It might change my memory

Recommended Watching: Music and Lyrics

Edited to Add: I think Eminem is one of the greatest lyricists - I belong to the school of thought that views Rap as poetry for me generation.
Love the way you lie: That's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano

The Jewel songs always get me. I don't think i've ever heard Lady Antebellum or Kings of Leon *blushes and hides*
