favorite line from a song?

Funny thing is, just a single line doesn't do it for me. It has to be in the context of the phrases that surround it for me to really appreciate it.

Here's a small snippet from an extremely powerful movie. "Dancer in the dark" which was just simply amazing to be honest.

I've seen it all
by Bjork

I've seen it all, I have seen the trees,
I've seen the willow leaves dancing in the breeze
I've seen a man killed by his best friend,
And lives that were over before they were spent.
I've seen what I was - I know what I'll be
I've seen it all - there is no more to see!

if you start with Camus, you're already ahead of the game

Gragorin's post reminds me of this (Cure lyric):
I can turn and walk away
Or I can fire the gun
Staring at the sky
Staring at the sun
Whichever I choose
It amounts to the same
Absolutely nothing

and on that same note....

Didn’t have to blast him but I did anyway
(That) young punk had to pay
So I just killed a man

Speaking of Teh Cure (song's called End of teh World):

Me I dont show much
Its not that hard to hide you
See in a moment
I cant remember how to
Be all you wanted

again, not sung, per se, but still a "line from a song"

why don't you get me a Pepsi?
She goes, no, you're on drugs, I go mom, I'm okay, I'm just thinking, she goes no, you're not thinking, you're on drugs, normal people don't act that way.

To touch is to heal
To hurt is to steal
If you wanna kiss the sky
Better learn how to kneel
On your knees boy!

he drops a capsule in your drink
and spikes your dreams with madness

the sanity assassin stays up all night stalking
the sanity assassin picks off victims like flys
the sanity assassin lets his fingers do the walking
the sanity assassin the crack shot between your eyes
he's got you in his sights

Speaking of full songs, I've always liked this one:

Where you are thats where I want to be
And through your eyes are all the things I want to see
In the night you are my dreams
You’re everything to me

You’re the love
Of my life
And the breath
In my prayers
Take my hand
Lead me there
What I need is you here

I cant forget the taste of your mouth
From your lips, the heavens pour out
I can’t forget when we are one
You and I am free

Everyday, every night
You alone, are the love of my life

Everyday, every night
You, alone, are the love of my life

We go dancing in the moonlight
With the starlight in your eyes
We go dancing ’til the sunlight
You and me, we’re gonna
Dance, dance, dance
