I had my Manics tattoo touched up today. I'm a lot happier with it now, looks more like what I origninaly had in mind:

Great tatt, Ermintrude!

If tattoos weren't quite so permanent, maybe I'd get "Boring fuckhead."
But next weekend I'm going to get "Everything will be" tattooed on my collarbone, on the left. Unless I change my mind, which is possible as I'm insanely indecisive and want to make sure I'm getting the right Manics tatt. And, not a lyric, but I know I need "4real" on my right arm under my jellyfish (which again will be there in the near future ).
It's been really hard to narrow it down, because there are so many amazing lyrics, but I don't want something too dismal unless it's semi-permanent.

I've just trailed through this thread and most of the other ones I considered have already been mentioned (also, some of you have some beautiful ones), so I'll post some different ones I thought of:
Love your masks and adore your failure
You always mistook fists for flowers
Escape from our history
If I can shoot rabbits, then I can shoot fascists
Stop those thoughts, control your mind
You don't have to believe me
Don’t hurt. Just obey. Lie down. Do as they say.
Believe in tomorrow and not today (as a professional procrastinator I like this one)
You see nothing is very real
+ lots more, but I won't bore you any longer!

And I like the idea of having "to show from where I came" underneath my scars.

I really want a Manics tattoo, will have to wait for a few months though! I'd love to have a lyric, I've got several in mind and then may be one like James' 'Anxiety is Freedom' but with 'This Is Yesterday' instead.

That's really lovely, Ermintrude!
I still want to get something incorporating a Nicky-esque feather boa, maybe with words, but I'm still not sure what..I keep going back to "sehnsucht"...

I had a dream about a Manics tattoo, I think I had 'All I want to do is live' and 'No matter how miserable it is' separately on each arm...

Really like that.

I'd love to have 'Here chewing your tail is joy' somewhere on my arm.
