What's so hard about..."Only 1 phrase"? Meaning 1 or 2 lines, not an entire verse or chorus.

1 or 2 LINES....thats it!

It is very hard to limit it to 2 lines, because we don't want to lose the context.

It's also very hard to choose. Much like the favorite album or song, it can change from day to day or even minute to minute as it plays.

 

Today, mine is

 

Lit up like a firefly

Just to feel the living night

I've always loved all of "Open Secrets" and "Time Stand Still", but especially these two selections (since I'm asked to narrow it down here):

 

Closed for my protection-

Open to your scorn

Between these two directions

My heart is sometimes torn

 

I find no absolution

In my rational point of view

Maybe some things are instinctive

But there's one thing you could do

You could try to understand me-

I could try to understand you...

 

From "Time Stand Still":

 

Make each impression a little bit stronger

Freeze this motion a little bit longer

The innocence slips away...

 

Summer's going fast,

Nights growing colder

Children growing up-

Old friends growing older

Experience slips away...

 

Hard to narrow it down.

There are so many. just... so many.

 

static on your frequency

electrical storm in your veins

raging at unreachable glory

straining at invisible chains

 

That one always stood out, to me.

I feel my spirit resist but I open up my fist

Lay hand over hand over hand over fist

Run with wind and weather to the music of the sea

All four winds together can't bring the world to me

 

And

 

oh the light can carry all the visions of the sea

oh the light can carry all the images to me

Horizon to horizon

Memory written on the wind

Washed away like footprints in the rain

Swept away like voices in a hurricane

In a vapor trail...

 

Great website, everyone! It's nice to be aboard where I feel most welcome!

Anything from Resist, but in particular:

 

"You can surrender

Without a prayer

But never really pray

Pray without surrender

 

You can fight

Fight Without ever winning

But never ever win

Win Without a fight"
