I am curious if anybody have an Death Cab For Cutie lyric tattoos?
If you do, or knows anybody who does, please comment!
Any of you guys met Tattoos artists who are really sick of doing textual tattoos? They claim it's passe and really common ):

So this will be my 4th tattoo but my first involving text. I really want the Bob Dylan line "build a ladder to the stars and climb on every rung" as it's really significant to me and I'd like to have it surrounded by a scattering of coloured stars. The thing I'm unsure of is the placement of it. I currently have a fairly large piece of work from my ( Read more... )

New to this comm, and though I'd show off my ink. I had it done about 1 and a half years ago, but the photo is off when it was new.

I'm thinking of getting an Edith Piaf tattoo - lyrics from one of her most famous songs, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien[No, I Don't Regret Anything/I regret nothing]. I love her and I love the French language so it's perfect for me. The words hold a lot of meaning for me too - I may have made some epic mistakes, but it's brought me to where I am now and ( Read more... )

I've been thinking of getting 'from grace' [lyric from "6 Underground" by Sneaker Pimps] as a tattoo, but I'm unsure of the placement. Can you guys help me with this? Thanks; i love this community:-]

I have considered, time and again, the word "Anticipate". It's hard to explain the meaning this has for me, so I won't go into detail. I believe I owe a good deal of credit to an Ani DiFranco song by the same name. I apologize to those who may feel lyrical tattoos don't belong here, but I felt it relevant enough to be considered. For the past ( Read more... )

I'm thinking of getting (not strictly literature but bare with me) "Take the pieces and build the skywards" From 'Machines' by Biffy Clyro. I would like to remove the 'and' and split it into two sentences. Firstly what do people think of playing with the text and secondly does anyone have 'two part' text tattoos they'd like to share? placement? ( Read more... )

Hello! I'm so glad I found this community <3
So I'm planning my new tattoo, it'll be a line from a Foo Fighters song.
I'm just not too sure about the font so here are 5 fonts I really like:
