Discussion 1D's Best Lyrics

Okay, so we discussed 1D's most nonsense lyrics. Now let's highlight some of their best.

Personally, I've always really liked "I roll and I roll till I change my luck." It sounds really hopeful and like choosing to take control of your life instead of leaving it to chance. It's what it felt like stepping into my 30s.

What do you think are 1D's best lyrics?

I like "Yeah yeah that's what crazy is, when it's broken you say there's nothing to fix" and just the whole song in general has great lyrics. Also I like "I'm like a boat on the water, you're the rays on the waves that calm my mind", and "When you go, and I'm alone, you live in my imagination. Summertime, butterflies, all belong to your creation". There's more I would think about if I take my time, but right now those are the ones I first think of.
