    Thanks :)

    I kept hearing floors as thrones

    Keep on locking your doors
    Keep on building your thrones


    There...that sounds whole lot better :D
    I have no patience for bad music and stupid people...

    The whole world will be different soon the whole world will be RELIEVED

    So many amazing lyrics to choose from. My personal Favorite's are

    I am Mine
    Present tense
    Black
    Nothingman
    These lines from Thumbing my Way are great that haven't been mentioned yet, just love them.

    I can't be free with what's locked inside of me...
    If there was a key, you took it in your hands.

    and

    All the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives
    Choosing the shiny ones instead
  • Easy come easy go
    Easy left me a long time ago

    I'm in the fire, but I'm still cold
    Nothing works, works for me anymore
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
    “..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

  • My new favorite is:
    It's a fragile thing
    This life we lead
    If I think too much
    I can get over
    Whelmed by the grace
    By which we live our lives
    With death over our shoulders

    I was absolutely blown to smithereens when I deciphered that one on maybe my third listen! When I shared it with my dad, he said that Eddie is enlightened.

    Do the Evolution: it's herd behavior goes through my mind at least a couple times a day when I see people in action

    and these tragic lines from Yellow Moon:
    They sky grows dark
    With fallen stars
    Who'd come so far
    A headstone engraved
    The colors turn gray
    The black and white fades

    There are tons to choose from on LB. This album is amazing lyrically.

    "Wanna third second chance?
    Put your faith in big hands
    Pay no more than a glance"
  • I think LB is their best album lyrically since No Code, and their second best overall.
