Favorite one-line in a song

It would be really great if you drowned in a lake
Or put a bag over your face and watched you suffocate
I'd celebrate at your wake, I'd bake myself a cake

-Wednesday 13
 
It ain't just one line but part of the song.
The Killers - Uncle Jonny

When everybody else refrained
My uncle Johnny did cocaine
He's convinced himself right in his brain
That it helps to take away the pain
Hey, Johnny
Hey what you say Johnny

I wanna go out tonight
Come a little closer to the city lights
Levitation aint your only friend
Levitation coming back again
Feel a burning in your body's core
It's a yearning that you cant ignore
Now I wanna go out tonight

Love that song
 
I dreamt about you last night and I fell out of bed twice, you can pin and mount me like a butterfly. But,"Take me to the haven of your bed," was something that you never said. Two lumps, please. You're the bee's knees but so am I.
 
Meet me in Outer Space. We could spend the night; watch the Earth come up. I've grown tired of that place; won't you come with me?
 
"I can feel death, can see it's beady eyes
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out again"

Radiohead - "Street Spirit (Fade Out)"


Immerse Your Soul In Love
 
"...some people tell me
that these old worried blues ain't bad.
It's the worst old feelin'
I most ever had."

Robert JOhnson - "Walkin' Blues"
 
"When I go forwards you go backwards
and somewhere we will meet.
When I go forwards you go backwards
and somewhere we will meet.
Ha ha ha "

Radiohead - "Electioneering"
 
"So I packed up all my hopes inside a MATCHBOX"
Night Flight: Led Zepplin.
That one hits home for me!
Also:
"sometimes just don't wanna get out of bed, think I'd rather be dead"
Dragon from 'The Garden of Good and Evil' album.

Looking through this thread is amazing. So many words reaching out to touch people all over the world. Magic.
It's also groovy when the music speaks more intimately than the words. Sometimes hearing a musical passage one feels that when the spirit cord stretches and finally, snaps the music your listening to now is what you will hear at that moment, being played by angels ^_^

Not sure if it's a favorite, but it's something crossing my mind right now.

Are there things that concern you, more than your time?
