As someone who loves nature, hikes a lot (often in WV but that's another song) there's just something so perfectly framed from John Denver in Rocky Mountain High, where he says:
"You can talk to God, and listen to the casual reply": just perfectly states what so many of us feel when we're surrounded by natural beauty.

The other one is in sympathy by the goo goo dolls.
"All the dark and all the lies and all the empty things disguised as me.". Such a brutally honest lyric that everyone can relate to in some level.
Excellent Johnny D line.

Sort of similar in genre, the Great Gord:

"If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts could tell."

When I die don't you bury me at all
Just nail my bones up on the wall
And beneath my bones let these words be seen
Here hangs the bloody gear of a boppin' machine

This version is a slight improvement on the original.

I've always enjoyed Max Stalling for his lyrics. He's pretty clever with alliteration, rhyme and puns, and sometimes funny.

"The sun, the old vaudevillian, bows to the light applause,
But before he's done, he does the one about vermilion and the curtain falls."

"The evening star is alone for now in the western sky,
A beaming host who steps out to boast of the stellar show being planned tonight"


"There's wrinkles on his face, and wrinkles on his clothes;
And he wears a little thinner as each day unfolds."

"I ain't drinking alone, I'm on the phone with my brother"

"Forget the race, find an open space, and leave that city far behind"

ac/dc aren't known for inspiring/genius lyrics, but this line from rocknroll damnation i've always thought was good "take a chance, while you still got the choice". to me is another way of saying carpe diem, seize the day

Honey came in and she caught me red-handed
Creeping with the girl next door
Picture this, we were both butt-naked
Banging on the bathroom floor

And I move down the street like a cloud floating across a clear blue sky;
And I know I'll never feel this way again.

Maybe I missed it scrolling through, but can't believe no one else has posted the actual, single greatest line ever in a song...

Peter Steele had some great lines -

"Invades my sleep with tumescent intentions, Hades I'm sure must be missing a demon"

"I'm quite flattered that you think I'm cute, but I don't deal well with compacted poop"

"I went looking for trouble and boy, I found her..."

"Practicing freelance gynecology, where there's a womb there's a way, with you it's for free"

"Champagne glass of blood and wine, on chocolate hearts alone I dine"

"Better to live as king of beasts, than as a lamb scared and weak"
then later in song
It's better to burn quickly and bright, than slowly and dull without a fight"

A couple that come to mind.

I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
Time don't matter to me
'Cause I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
And there's no place I wanna be


Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

I can't believe no one has mentioned the best of all time....

The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But, it's still on the list.
