    A few of mine are:

    "Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady's breast"

    "saw things clearer once you were in my rearview mirror"

    "I'm the first mammal to wear pants"

    "You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, Or you can come to terms and realize
    You're the only one who can't forgive yourself"

    "I don't want to take what you can give. I would rather starve than eat your bread"

    - Even flow thoughts arive like butterflies
    - she holds the hand that holds her down
    - I don't wanna take what you can't give
    - are you woman enough to be my man

    It Takes ALL to make the song! I have watched many bands do that funny "head nodding" thing when they groove? Ed is the Smooth Voice that says everything. An interpreter? Anyone agree?

    "Don't need a helmet got a hard hard head" -Remembered that one as I was just talking to somebody about helmets.

    "To myself I surrenderrrrrr, to the one I'll never beeee"

    "Soon Forget" - The entire song.

    "He reaches for her and the water turns a red hot, woken up to be burnt burnt again" (I may have made up some words there).

    And ofcourse the countless other lines that have been posted before.

    I wish I was the verb to trust and never let you down.

    We're all just visiting. All just breaking like waves.

    I stayed where my last step left me.

    Excellent selections

    no longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now

    every time I get me some it gets the best of me not much left you see

    I see the words on a rocking horse of time

    Took one from each record. The album that speaks to me the least is Vs.

    The one with the greatest collection of lyrics has to be Yield



    I will stare the sun down until me eyes go blind

    push me and I will resist this behaviors not unique

    I want a last breath I don't let out

    my small self like a book amongst the many on the shelf

    He's okay but wondering about wandering

    To choose just one line seems impossible, there are so many! Yet I like this simple but powerful line
    It's an art to live with pain, mix the light into grey.

    And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
    And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
    A human being that was given to fly...



    A few lines actually. Forgive me.

    Whatever the nations leced in your prayers...

    Leced means what? I looked up the word in the dictionary, it said the word meant an ameboa plant!

    then i looked at the origin of the word, and one old english translation said it meant cloak. So how smart Eddie is!

    So, what does leced mean in the context of the song to you?

    Thanks!

    Peace

    Just wanted to say that when ever I need a little push I love to click on this thread and then a random page. It usually gives me some help if I need it.

    Up here so high the sky I scrape
    Had my eyes peeled both wide open, and I got a glimpse
    Of my innocence... got back my inner sense...
    Baby got it, still got it
    She holds the hand that holds her down...
    She will... rise above...

    I didn't read thru them all so I'm sure I'm repeating, but:

    "If he can't sleep how will he ever dream"

    "The wisdom that the old can't give away"

    "Every inch between us becomes light years now"

    ed_lvs_me got it right many years ago in my humble opinion

    "first he was stripped, then he was stabbed by the faceless men, well fuckers, he still stands"
    "God created surfing and Pearl Jam so that the truely gifted, talented and most intelligent people wouldnt rule the world"...adapted from my bumper sticker

    That is soooo hard to choose. But if I had to, right now at this very moment, I would say:

    Paint a picture visions only grey
    Light your pillow. Lay back. Watch the flames.
    I'll tell a story but no one would listen that long.

    But then, I would probably say the whole of 'hard to imagine'!
    And probably every other song :):)
    Light your pillow lay back watch the flames

    I only want life.... to be...
    I just want to be...
    I will feel alive... as long as I am free...


    I had a false belief
    I thought I came here to stay
    We're all just visiting
    All just breaking like waves
    The oceans made me, but who came up with love?
    ...So if there were no angels, would there be no sin?
    Let's say knowledge is a tree, yeah.
    It's growing up just like me.
