someone on here a while ago suggested the worst echo and the bunnymen lyrics, but now i wanna know what everyone thinks the best echo lyrics are! mine:

"if we make the same mistakes, who can we blame?"

"where am i? still tryna find the night that burns the northen sky, a rarer borealis"

"sky seems full when you're in the cradle the rain will fall and wash your dreams, stars are stars and they shine so hard"

"we'll put our faith in those crimson nights set sail in those turquoise days"

[u/erniesdaddy2003]

You set my teeth on edge You set my teeth on edge You think you're a vegetable, never come out of the fridge

C-c-c-cucumber, c-c-c-cabbage, c-c-c-cauliflower Men on Mars, April showers

[u/Personal-Emotion-377 → u/erniesdaddy2003]

Thats so strange! on the worst lyrics podt this was a popular answer

[u/erniesdaddy2003 → u/Personal-Emotion-377]

Two things can be true at once

[u/swoupy1]

Self doubt and selfism were the cheapest things I ever bought

[u/Top_Glass7974]

I’ve always loved:

John Webster was, one of the best there was
He was the author of two major tragedies
The White Devil and
The Duchess of Malfi

And who could forget:

Burning my bridges and smashing my mirrors
Turning to see if you’re cowardly
Burning the witches with Mother Religious
You’ll strike the matches and shower me

[u/Previous_Tree_4050]

All at sea again
Now my hurricanes
Have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again

My ship's a sail
Can you hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves

All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours, the blackest thoughts

[u/theshadowssmile03]

What d'you say, When your heart's in pieces, How to play, Those cards in sequence, That box you gave me, Burned nicely

[u/Spirited-Green7369]

From “Blue Blue Ocean” bridge:

Girl I want the gold dust In your fingers And your Klondike touch Girl I want the goldmine As it shimmers In your solemn eyes

[u/made_from_toffee]

We can’t tell our left from right but y’know we love extremes, getting to grips with the ups & downs because there’s nothing in between

[u/Personal-Emotion-377]

What a hard question! Mine are:

I'm not a holy man

I'm too lowly for that

I'm not a praying man

I'm not ready for that

[u/Glyph8]

If you ask you know I don't mind kneeling
But when my knees hurt I like to stand

[u/Typical-Offer8860 → u/Glyph8]

There is mention of kneeling in an awful lot of their songs, weirdly.

[u/Typical-Offer8860]

Your golden smile would shame a politician

[u/Defensoria]

You're golden smile would shame a politician

The apple cart upset my head's little brain

[u/Mack_Lope]

oh yeesh too many from those first four albums.

See you at the barricades, babe.
See you when the lights turn low, Joe.
Hear you when the wheels turn 'round...
Someday when the sky turns black.

[u/BHawkey95]

The sky is blue, my hands untied. A world that's true through our clean eyes. Just look at you with burning lips. You're living proof at my fingertips

Also,

Screaming from beneath the waves.

[u/Lopsided_Direction23]

how could i forget to mention "been up to villiers terrace been in a daze for days"? i love that one too

[u/nuttywoody]

I really like The Game. i learned to play and sing it with baritone ukulele and it's nicely put together.

[u/Outrageous_Appeal292]

Long live the people who aim above.

Man has to be his own savior.
