What is your favorite Pink Floyd lyric?

Indeed. There's too many amazing lyrics by them to post.

"Far away across the field
the tolling of the iron bell
calls the faithful to their knees
to hear the softly spoken magic spells"

That has always struck me as particularly beautiful. Dunno why.

I almost go with Shane.

"You run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking....Racing around to come up behind you again...
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older...
shorter of breath and one day closer to death."

You gotta be crazy....have to be trusted by the people taht you lie to,so that when they turn their backs on U;U get the chance to put the knife in.......

then the moment of clarity faded like charity does
sometimes
i opened one eye

and i put out my hand just to touch your soft hair
to make sure in the darkness that you were still there
and i have to admit
i was just a little afraid
yeah
but then

i had a little bit of luck
you were awake
i couldn't take another moment
alone

Walk up and down outside the wall ..."

I've always liked:
"All that is now,
And all that is gone,
All that's to come,
and Everything under the sun is in tune,
but the sun is eclipsed by the moon"

I just really like the whole song Eclipse. I think that the lyrics kind of roll off the tongue and I like that. It doesn't really describe me or how I live my life...I just like the sound of it.

I must say that many of the lyrics that has already been mentioned are absolutely brilliant lyrics. But to get something new in here:

But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high,
As you can see.
No matter how he tried,
He could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.

BTW, Eclipse is one of my favourite Floyd songs too...
