From "Vertigo": "It's dark, the jungle is
                         Your head can't rule your heart..."

"I'll see you again, when the stars fall from the sky, and the moon has turned red, over One Tree Hill"

"don't believe what you hear, don't believe what you see, if you just close your eyes you can feel the enemy..."

really any lyric from Acrobat... can i do a few more?

"she runs through the streets with eyes painted red. Under a black belly of cloud in the rain in through a doorway, she brings me white gold and pearls stolen from the sea she is raging, she is raging, and the storm blows up in her eyes she will suffer the needle chill, she's running to stand still...."

"Can you hear me when i sing? You're the reason i sing, you're the reason why the opera is in me..."

oh too many good ones!!!

A mole, digging in a hole, diggin in hole now, going down, excavation

If i ever want to listen to a U2 song with my friends, that line makes it possible so we can mock it together

"I cant live, with or without you"

to me it reminds me of a serious relationship where you can decide to stay or go. which hits very close to alot of us.

"love puts the blue back in my eyes"

the universe exploded cos of one man's lie-  this line always makes me laugh. but it is a deep lyric.

when i was all messed up, and had opera in my head,
your love was a lightbulb, hanging over my bed- love these lyrics

love is clockworks and cold steel
fingers too numb to feel- chilling yet perfect lyrics describing IRA bomb maker's motives/lack of feeling

"Your sermon on the mount, from the boot of your car." - Please

if i could yes i would, if i could i would let it go.

im wide awake!! im not sleeping- its pretty simple, but damn it hits home for me.

"all the promises we make, from the cradle to the grave..when all i want is you"


"man dreams one day to fly, a man takes a rocketship in to the skies, he lives on a star thats dying in the night and follows in the trail, the scatter of light."  thats a huge one.


and the one that got me hooked  "and when i go there, i go there with you..its all i can do"

"blessings are not just for the ones who kneel...........luckily"....COBL

It seems to be their saddest lines that grip me the most.

"If I could, through myself, set your spirit free I'd lead your heart away, see you break, break away Into the light and to the day."

"Her heart is racing you can't keep up.  The night is bleeding like a cut.  Between the horses of love and lust we are trampled underfoot."

"In the wind we hear their laughter.  In the rain we see their tears.  Hear their heartbeat, we hear their heartbeat."

"I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky and the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill."

"Justified till we die, you and I will magnify The Magnificent."

From "Vertigo": "It's dark, the jungle is
                         Your head can't rule your heart..."

yes, and "...and though your soul, it can't be bought, your mind can wander..."

Vertigo has so many brilliant lyrics! Captures the internal struggles very well.

"Shush now"

"Shush now"

In general the OH OHHHHHs from No Line get me

I'd have to say "Set Your Spirit Free" -- it's what I named my LiveJournal  and I recently got a tatoo of those words on my arm.

"Time is a train.  Makes the future the past.  Leave you standing in the station, your face pressed up against the glass" 

Changed my life.
