    Got a one liner that has stuck with you always? Or just an artist/band of the week with a lyric you just cant seem to stop from wirring around in your mind?

    Go for it, get it out of your system..and move on to the next available symphonic insanity...(and then post that one tomorrow)

    peace.

    Here's probably my all-time favorite lyric. It's from the song "Collage" by the awesome good James Gang:

    ".edam lived eht taht edalb rozar a si emit retniW
    .emit remmus eht rof yap ew ecirp eht s'tI"

    Oops, that's the lyric tryped backwards. Here I'll type it normally:

    "Winter time is a razor blade that the devil made.
    It's the price we pay for the summer time."

    God damn I love it.

    Peace

    We were talking about the love that's gone so cold and the people,
    Who gain the world and lose their soul
    They don't know, they can't see
    Are you one of them?

    Within you Without you by the Beatles, very relevant to society nowadays...

    "They Say that Time will kill m pain, I say that pain is gonna kill my time"
    -Ben Harper, When It's Good

    "We're all in this thing together, walkin' the line tween faith & fear. This life don't last forever, when you cry I taste the salt in your tears"
    -Old Crow Medicine Show, We're All in This Together.

    "When the weather gets rough and it’s whiskey in the shade, It’s best to wrap your savior up in cellafane. He flows like the big muddy, but that’s ok. Pour him over ice cream for a nice parfait."
    -Tom Waits, Chocolate Jesus

    "
    The memories of a man in his old age
    Are the deeds of a man in his prime
    You shuffle in the gloom of the sickroom
    And talk to yourself as you die
    And life is a short warm moment
    And death is a long cold rest"
    -Pink Floyd, Free Four

    I'd list off all the Bob Dylan Lyrics I love, but I just don't have the time to list them all.

    -Idiot Wind
    -Girl From the North Country
    -Masters of War
    -A hard rain's a gonna fall
    -Most Likely You'll go your way and I'll go mine
    -Stuck inside a Mobile
    -Leapord skin pill box hat
    -I want you.
    -Tombstone Blues

    just a few songs off the top o' my head that have wonderful lyrics, but that ain't all of course.
