Most memroable lyrics line.

gdub411 wrote: Confidence has deserted me, with you it has forsaken me Confused and rejected, despised and alone I kiss isolation on its fevered brow Security clutching me, obscurity threatening me Your reasons were so obvious As my friend have qualified, I only laughed away your tears But even jesters cry Really one could take Fish's lyrics from nearly every song he ever wrote...he is that good.

That's one of my favourite songs

The rain auditions at my window
it's symphony echoes in my womb

Stand up and fight, for you know we are right.
We must strike at the lies, that have spread like disease through our minds.

Steep, far too steep, grew the pathway ahead
Descent was the only escape
A wolf never flees in the face of his foe
Fang knew the price he would pay

Maybe it was infatuation or the thrill of the chase
Maybe you were always beyond my reach and my heart was playing safe
But was that love in your eye I saw or the reflection of mine?
I'll never really know for sure, you never really gave me time

But now I'm the snake in the grass, the ghost of film reels past
I'm the producer of your nightmare and the performance has just begun
It's just begun

There's a photo on the mantelpiece, when you bought your first guitar
And your girlfriend came to see you when you were the rising star
You knew your luck was holding when you filled the local hall
The first time and the last time that you thought you had control

I could be a million miles away
I'm a wandering stranger just trying to find some answers
And although you're there you're a million miles away

I think you all know the most of these. The last one is from Pendragon's A million Miles away, though I lost the EP I'll always remember that line

Two hundred francs for sanctuary and she led me by the hand To a room of dancing shadows where all the heartache disappears And from glowing tongues of candles I heard her whisper in my ear "'J'entend ton coeur" I can hear your heart I guess 99% of you will recognize them!

Yes I do. As for the 2nd: I love a lot of the lyrics on side two of Misplaced Childhood.

Also: "It was morning, and I found myself mourning etc..." The pun is a bit cliche, but on the album it works. "...There is no childhood's end..." Fantastic.

And this one will be much more difficult: it's not English and it's not prog, but I get shivers every time I listen to this song:

Ich bin gestorben dem Weltgetümmel
und rüh' in einem stillen Gebiet
Ich leb' allein in meinem Himmel,
in meinem Lieben, in meinem Lied

Actually, I hope nobody else has put this beautiful poem into music...

"You radiate cold shards of broken glass...."

"And in the end you'll pack up/Fly down south/Hide your head in the sand/Just another sad old man/All alone and dying of cancer...ohhohhhhhhhhh"

"Who was only a stranger at home/Who was ground down in the end/Who was found dead on the phone....dragged down by the stone...stone...stone....stone...stone...stone...stone...sto ne..."

"And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around"

Man, that was bleak....need something lighter...how about:

"I've got three beers and a fist full of downs/Now I'm gonna get ripped so phuk you clowns"

They take you to your limits, they take you beyond...

(Peter Gabriel, Wallflower)
