What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...

"...Now I have you with me, under my power
Our love grows stronger now with every hour
Look into my eyes, you will see who I am
my name is Lucifer, please take my hand..."

BLACK SABBATH, N.I.B./Basically
"...Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
if you can’t, then it doesn’t matter anyway
you will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
and it feels so good, it’s like walking on glass

it’s so cool, it’s so hip, it’s alright
it’s so groovy, it’s outta sight
you can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
but it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet

You want it all but you can’t have it.

it's crying', bleedin’, lying on the floor
so you lay down on it and you do it some more
you’ve got to share it, so you dare it
then you bare it and you tear it

You want it all but you can’t have it. It’s in your face but you can’t grab it

It’s alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
it’s magic, it’s tragic, it’s a loss, it’s a win
it's dark, it’s moist, it’s a bitter pain
it’s sad it happened and it’s a shame

You want it all but you can’t have it. It’s in your face but you can’t grab it

What is it?
It’s it
What is it?..."

FAITH NO MORE, EPIC.

All of mine are from Leonard Cohen. Here's one:
you try the handle of the road
it opens, do not be afraid
it's you my love, you who are the stranger
it is you my love, you who ae the stranger

Or how about:
and just when I was sure that his teaching was pure,
he drowned himself in the pool.
his body is gone but out here on the lawn
his spirit continues to drool

ouch.
