My heart was broken
My part was spoken
Now the ground has opened
All around me


The whole song, really. Nice words.

Tarantula passes by your window
No one takes it as a sign
No one cares which way the wind blows
Someone’s got to change your mind

Every bone has been broken
Rumours of awful scenes
Every word, every language has been spoken
Someone’s got to set you free

and this bridge:

Is it just a separate voice?
Did you hear what they said?
Is it only that you’re lonely?
Did you save him everyday?
Is your lie justified?
Kick your holes through your door
Did you die with him right on the floor, floor, floor

OFCOURSE including the folowing KILLER-riff.....that's part of the lyric for me...

Too many. "Peacekeeper" was a new high for him, though.

You know all of our friends are gods
And they all tell us how to paint our face
But there's only one brush we need
It's the one that never leaves a trace


When the candles burn down, worlds turn to stone
That's why you've got to fly, fly away home


We never took quite enough chances
We never had quite enough time
I did about a thousand dances
But nothing would change your mind


Saw you face yesterday, thinking on the days of old
And the price that we paid, for a love we couldn't hold


Don't know why I have to go
Don't know why I can't stay
Guess I want to be alone
And I guess I need to be amazed
Save me a place
I'll come running if you love me today


And my favorite:

My heart was broken
My part was spoken
Now the ground has opened
All around me

The dreams of a lifetime
Told me wrong
Everything is all right
And now it's gone


Guess I want to be alone
And I guess I need to be amazed


Everything you do has been done
And this won't last forever


They told me that I never would recover
Still some say they knew me well


You can hurt, you can heal, you can reach for the light
You could trust in yourself if you’d give it a try
Turn it on


Slightly episodic
Always on the run
Ever so neurotic
Still we have our fun


Do you ever wonder
Do you ever hate
Six feet under
Someone who can wait


If that's all that there is
Oh steal your heart away


Here comes the nightime looking for a little more
Waiting on the right time somebody outside the door.


Well, the curtain falls too early, so they say
Some will go, others just stay and stay
So have a round on me, my friends
Buttercup days are through
You know I'll always love 'em
But I think it's time that we flew


And the lips you were kissing
Night after night
All were bathed in blue
All bathed in white


Half-closed eyes and unconscious death
Do you feel the ooze as your brain drains out
From the pneumatic drills and sharpened knives?
Blood in the sky, are you dead or alive?


The lights shine down the marina
All across her safety zone
But loneliness follows Miranda
And Miranda is always alone


Make me a mask
So I can last
'Til the right time comes

A tear in my eye
To light I fly
An end is beginning


It's so hard to find your way
When the liars come around
Still it happens everyday
So don't let it get you down

Now I best be on my way
Before the night turns blue
Once you said goodbye to me, yeah
And now I say goodbye to you


It doesn't matter who we thought we were
We ain't got time for it now
I swear, I swear, I swear
It's not too late
Wait for the light that might light our way
Wait for the right twist of fate


Or at any rate these are the ones that mean the most to me (other than what's been said)

Funny, but so many of these seem so simple just typed out on the screen, but I guess it's his delivery, they still convey so much to me...

After the music ended
There was nowhere to go but down
Faces of glass all stuck in the past
They only came here to drown

Don't blame me
Please be strong
I know I'm not wrong

You don't know what it means to win
All the restless people and the bitter green
Well it takes the gold, makes the spirit mean

I really, really love the entire lyric to Red Rover. I think the words are amazing. Quite like the song, actually.
