    I am so hooked on that song!
    what's that from? cause it so describes my life right now :(

    too many fantastic lines to count, but one that's always bothered me is 'once divided, there's nothing left to subtract', and i get it in the sense that (i think) he means it, but i'm a scientist and logic overtakes on this one, and mathematically, this line makes no sense
    No problem can be solved from the same consciousness that created it.

    It's 6:00 AM. You're waiting for...
    You've had your feast. You're wanting more.

    To this day, one of my favorites is: "cannot find a candle of thought to light your name" from Small Town. I love the imagery. :)

    My favourate changes from time to time depending on moods, sircumstances etc, but for a long time i find that the last line in Immortality "Some die just to live" is so intense. In such a small pice of writing it says so much. So many of Ed's lyrics are amazing, alot of which make your hair stand up on end and send a shiver down your spine.

    I could go on but here are some of my favourate

    "Some die just to live" - Immortality

    "It's instilled to want to live" - Insignificance

    "I have wished for so long...
    How I wish for you today
    Will I walk the long road?
    We all walk the long road" - Long Road
    More of a verse but i thinks its awesome :)

    "It's the same everyday and the wave won't break
    Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder ".....Ed.

    "Triumphant are the angels if they can/a get there first..." (Tremor Christ)
    "If you hate something, don't you do it too" (Not for you)
    "All that's sacred comes from youth/dedication, naive and true"(Not for you)
    "Vulnerable, wisdom can't adhere..." (Immortality)
    "I had a false belief/I thought I came here to stay/We're all just visiting/All just breaking like waves" (Push me pull me)
    "When he was six he believed that the moon overhead followed him/By nine he had deciphered the illusion, trading magic for fact" (I'm open)
    Let's say knowledge is a tree, yeah.
    It's growing up just like me.
