i think the thing i love most about songs/lyrics - is when i hear ONE line, and it really strikes me. and i go to read the lyrics (which is now an immediate instant gratification with my iPhone, unless i am driving of course) and the entire song is just so right on - to something i'm feeling or felt. and for some reason, the right combination of music and words can just MOVE you.
an example. but i will let you decide what line moves you...maybe it moved me too.
BEN LEE LYRICS
"Close I've Come"I slipped into a house
To escape my enemies
And opened the door to another world
Of lovers and whores
But I loved you more
Than any of them and ever before
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
The universe is brought back
From the brink of destruction
Every time you smile
But I can see things clearer
It's all smoke and mirrors
Yeah you broke my fucking heart but I still want you
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
One can only guess
What would happen if
I got all my questions answered
Then we'd know for sure
Who's got the quickest draw
Who's laying dead and who's above the law
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
