It is extremley difficult to name your all time favorite (for me at least), so what is one of your personal favorite lyrical lines? For me...

1:57 mark - One breaks my body and the other breaks my soul....La Cienega just smiles as it waves goodbye

I could copy and past the whole lyrics for this song to work fwiw.

Gram Parsons - How Much I Lied

A thief can only steal from you
He cannot break your heart
He'll never touch the precious things inside...

Marilyn Manson - Lamb of God

If you die when there's no one watching
Then your ratings drop and you're forgotten
But if they kill you on their TV
You're a martyr and a lamb of god

Look in my eyes
You wonder what that flash could be
That's my mind
Reacting telepathically.

Townes Van Zandt - from Waitin Around to Die

Now I'm out of prison, I got me a friend at last
He don't steal or cheat or drink or lie
His name's codeine, he's the nicest thing I've seen
Together we're gonna wait around and die


Townes Van Zandt - from If I needed You

In the night forlorn the morning's born
And the morning shines with the lights of love
You will miss sunrise if you close your eyes
That would break my heart in two

If you grew up with white boys
Who only look at black and Puerto Rican porno
'Cause they want something that their dad don't got
Then you know where you're at

Why? - Good Friday

Neil Young... Old Man

Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you

I really do appreciate the fact you're sittin here
Your voice sounds so wonderful

So bar maid bring a pitcher, another round o brew
Honey, why don't we get drunk and screw

These verses from "Mariano" by Robert Earl Keen are definitely on my list of favorites. Especially when sung by REK himself.


He sits upon a stone in a south-easterly direction
I know my charts I know that he is thinking of his home
I've never been the sort to say I'm in to intuition
But I swear I see the faces of the ones he calls his own

Their skin is brown as potter’s clay, their eyes void of expression
Their hair is black as widow's dreams, their dreams are all but gone
They're ancient as a vision of a sacrificial virgin
Innocent as crying from a baby being born

Pink Floyd - Time

So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

I made a god
Out of blood
Not superiority
I killed the king
Of deceit
Now I sleep in anarchy

You ain't seen nuthin' till you're down on the muffin

Then you're sure to be changin' your ways.

I met a cheerleader, was a real young breeder all the times I could reminisce.

Cause the best thing's luvin' with her sister and her cousin and it started with a little kiss
