What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...
arthursmuck
Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain and all the children are insane waiting for the summer rain.

The End- The Doors
In 69 I was 17 and I called the road my own, I don't know where that road turned off but it's the road I'm on.
Jeez, someone out there actually knows The United States of America.

Take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
" ...because sometimes the signs from Heaven are vague"

Is my favourite recent lyric - from the last song on The Fiery Furnaces debut CD - 'Gallowbird's Bark'.

That line sticks with me, in the face of all the craziness in the world, where so many people believe they are in possession of the 'absolute truth'.

Cheers.
