What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...

lately, I've been enamored by Dylan's 35th studio Album, Tempest.

But the lines that resonate with me most from Tempest:

"I'll pay in blood ...but not my own"

and, "I'm not dead, my bell still rings"
..if someone,... offers you.... some sugar
you should eat it...."

Smog  "Sweet Treat"
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car from the profit he's made on your dreams...

The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys - Traffic
"When the wind picked up,
the fire spread and the grapevine seemed left for dead,
and the northern sky, looked like the end of days,
a wake-up call to a rented room
sounded like an alarm of impending doom,
to a warn us It's only a matter of time
before we all burn,

we bought some wine, and some paper cups
near your daughter's school,
when we picked her up, and drove to the cemetery
on a hill,  where we watched the plums
paint the sky grey
as she laughed and danced through the fields of graves,
and there I knew it would be alright..
that everything would be alright"..

Death Cab For Cutie "Grapevine"
" so often times it happens
that we live our life in chains
and we never even 
know we have the key"..

The Eagles  "Already Gone"
