What's your favorite lyric from a song?

"And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made

And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming

And the sign said, "The words of the prophets

Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"

And whispered in the sounds of silence"

I was recently reminded of Paul Simon’s great lyric by hearing Disturbed’s quite different version.

@cd318,

I hope you've heard "The Twins" version...from Live @ Benroyal Hall, from Brandi Carlile.

..."she's my sister, and she floats like a bird in the canopy"

The Rosebuds "Loud Planes Fly Low"

I begged her give me horses
to trample down my enemy
so eager was my passion
to devour this waste of life
