Points to second quote in sig.

I am the horizon.
I have dreamed of tracing rings around this world.
My arms are stretched to forever.
My fingers shake with the fear of control.
The fear I know you all know so well.
We all lay claim to our destinies.
Yet we all rise and fall with the current.

I don’t owe me any money
You don’t owe me a thing
When we drink beer
Dragonflies appear
Dragonflies appear

I've always loved this one line from Bandages by Hot Hot Heat:

I've been tripping from sipping the dripping dirty water tap

The rhythm there is just so perfect it hurts. :p:

And if you save yourself, you will make him happy. He'll keep you in a jar, and you'll think you're happy. He'll give you breathing holes, then you'll think you're happy. He'll cover you with grass, and you'll think you're happy. - Sappy

Smells like autumn smells like leaves you don't
know that you'll rust and not belong so much
and then get left alone.
suck it up take a ride and take a walk
dont you know that the old folks home smells so much like my own

the hotcha girls on the palasades
dime store keets, pretty birds, pretty birds.

mamas little truck rose, her dancy feet, her happy laugh.
We were dropping dimes on the ponies, in the cul de sac casting shadows throwing sparks. We left
our teeth marks on the barrle of a gun.... the
clipper ship across your chest. Turns out the pony
only had one truck, a wink for the truck stop boys. they learned it all from the polaroids.

smells like autumn smells like leaves you
dont know that you'll rust and not belong so much
and ten get left alone. suck it up, take
a ride and take a walk, font you know that old folks home smells so much like my own home.

Time bends light. Paints are peeling,

wait out side, take four rights.

the hotcha girls in the palasades, dime store
keets, pretty birds pretty mouths. Glass eyes
and wooden teeth, the engine rusting
in deep deep sleep, it waits. The mail
came from miles away, the post man
is always late, and we wait and we wait.
tight lipped like a big old mouth, the goverment
workers all headed south while it rained
glassy eyes and the wooden teeth, the engine
rusted in deep deep sleep. And it wait, and it waits,
to awake.

well that is the lyric that I like at this moment, I would like ,now, to know what are your favorite lyrics, at this moment.
