"cannot find the candle of thought to light your name."

"as he reached the shore of his clip-on world, he resurfaced to the norm"

"for every tool they lend us, a loss of independence."

"the tv, she talks to me, breaking news and building walls..."

"born on third, thinks he got a triple"

Prof. L. H. Standish · March 2005

Don't know if its been said (this damn thread is gettin' long!) but my fav Ed line has to be from Leash:

I am lost, I'm no guide, but I'm by your side.
I am RIGHT by your side, yeeeaaahhh.

It just makes me want to snarl and hug my nearest buddy. Made all the better by Wild Turkey.

'l got scrathes all over my arms, one for each day since i fell apart'

'all the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives, choosing the shiny
ones instead'

'oh dear dad, can you see me now? i am myself, like you somehow'

'your life made us stars'

'i will light the match this morning, so i won't be alone'

'i only own my mind, i am mine'

'she rolls over, pretends to sleep as he looks her over'

"Love can keep on movin in both direction,, How to be happy and true, is the quest we're takin on together, ..."
Thin Air

"I know some day you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky, whyx3
can't it be MINE..."
Black

"Little secrets tremor's, ((turns to quake?) = Earth quake I Think) The smallest ocans still get, big, big waves"
Tremor Christ
I don't get this song very well, but I love that line !!
Somebody got a lead for me on this one???

steppenwolf · March 2005

like a cloud dropping rain i'm discarding all thought...
leaving puddles on the ground...

love that line.

doraz · March 2005

Thin air was written by Stone, was it not?

Not sure if anyone put this one yet...I didn't browse through all the pages...

"...But first he was stripped, and then he was stabbed by a face-less man, well fuckers, he still stands...and he still gives his love he just gives it away, the love recieves is the love that is saved...."

HE JUST GIVES IT AWAY..always gets me.

She's got nothing in common with the problem - Girl

I am the shoreline, but you are the see - You Are

Wide awake and he dreams in the shower, woken up to be burned, burned again - Alone

Iniatives are taking home by the middle. There aint gonna be a middle no more - Porch

I got a backstreet lover on the side of the road, I got a bomb in my temple that is gonna explode, I got a 16 gauge buried under my clothes - Once

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I fucking know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky - Black

All the love that she had is just wood that she burned - Breakerfall

The loss of the one who he could not replace - Sad

Daddy couldn't read, daddy couldn't write, but the one thing he could do right, he could swear - Daddy Could Swear

One uninvited chromosome - Nothing as it Seems

I pulled the covers over head, I should of pulled the alarm - Go

When the sun don't shine, the sun don't shine at all - Smile

If you love someone, let them go. If someone loves you, don't fuck up.

These are just a few of Pearl Jam's best words. I know not all of them were written by Eddie, but they are all extraordinary.

"the sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow is denied"

"the broken signs it´s just for me..he was guiding me, love, it´s own way..."

"you can spend your time alone, redigesting past regrets or you can comes to terms and realize you´re the only one who cannot forgive yourself oh...
makes much more sense to live in the present tense"

"a wave came crushing like a fist of the jaw, delivered him wings, hey, look at me now...arms wide open as the sea as his floor..."

xboss14x · March 2005

So ill just lie here and wait for the dream, where im not ugly and your looking at me, i got id

"Caught a bolt of lightning, cursed the day he let it go"-Nothingman

Love that line. Gets stuck in my head more than Nothingman's chorus does, oddly.

And Garden's chorus is fantastic too.

signaltonoise · March 2005

"Once you hold the hand of love, it's all surmountable"

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

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

"I will make my way, through, one more day in hell..."

outofcbus · March 2005

If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done.

fishbig · March 2005

"Floated back down cause he wanted to share the keys to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere"

one of my favs.

Abookamongstthemany · March 2005

an empty shells seem so easy to crack
got all these questions don't know who i could even ask
so i'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
where i'm not ugly and your lookin' at me
and i stare you back
oh blue eyes, i've seen it
if just once i could feel love
oh stare back at me, yeah..
but i walked the line when you held me in that night
oh i walked the line when you held my hand that night
oh i walked the line when you held me close that night
i paid the price never held you in real life
my lips are shakin'

I know it's more than one line but I just couldn't pick only one.

gogol · March 2005

so i'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
where i'm not ugly and your lookin' at me

and

i'm already cut up and half dead
i'll end up alone like i began

2 genius favorites come to mind:
"Once divided, nothing left to subtract, some words when spoken, can't be taken back"
AND
"...cannot find the comfort in this world"

veganVitalogy · March 2005

oops,
and also...
"Don't see some men as half empty - see them half full of shit"

BRILLIANT!

mymanvedder · March 2005

"Saw things so much clearer, once you were in my rearviewmirror..."

My3rdEye · March 2005

and the wind keeps roarin'
and the sky keeps turning grey
and the sun is setting
the sun will rise another day

LittleMonkey · March 2005

Any/all of Black and I Got Shit.
