"In my dream I was drowning my sorrows
But my sorrows, they learned to swim
"


(U2, Until The End Of The World)


"Give me back the Berlin wall
give me Stalin and St Paul
I've seen the future, brother:
it is murder
"


(Leonard Cohen, The Future)


But let me quote a non-English one:

"Si me quedo a oscuras,
Luz de la Locura, ven y alúmbrame
"

That is:

"If I ever be left in the dark,
Light of Madness, come and enlight me
"

(Fito & Fitipaldis, Por la boca vive el pez, translation)
