Here are the rules, no "well it's only a verse"...just your favorite one liner (maybe two or three if you really have to)...I'll start it off

"The book of love is long and boring, but I love it when you read to me"

"I can deal with trying to process pigeons acting like they're doves, but not with interference from the power lines above"

"I find a fatal flaw, in the logic of love, and go out of my head."

"Now I know a disease that these doctors can’t treat, you contract on the day you accept all you see, is a mirror, and a mirror is all it can be, a reflection of something we’re missing"

"Give in to lust, give up to lust, oh heaven knows we'll soon be dust."

"Yo with the fitness, I bring the quickness, ****** wanna test me like litmus."

"Stand up beside the fireplace, take that look from off your face, 'cause you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out."

"The world has turned and left me here, just where I was before you appeared, and in your place, an empty space, has filled the void behind my face."

"The boy with the thorn in his side, behind the hatred there lies a murderous desire for love..."

"And if a ten ton truck, kills the both of us, to die by your side, well the pleasure, the privilege is mine."

"Think I'm drunk enough to drive, you home now."

"And how long would it take me, to walk across the United States, all alone?"

"When they kick at your front door, how you gonna come? With your hands on your head, or on the trigger of your gun?"

"Until you've seen the faces in the limestone on the pipe, don't tell the tragic monsters what lonliness is like."

"You can fool yourself, and maybe someone else like me; and if you're anyone's salvation, then there's nothing left for me."

"Hopes pinned to poses honed in men's room mirrors."

"Go off to sleep in the sunshine, don't wanna see the day when it's dying."

"But to stars we will never gaze, through the holes in your lives."

"Come put your shoes on, let's go out tonight, there's a genocide ball to attend."

"She said, 'Space is not just a place for stars, I gave you an inch you want a house with a yard' ."

"What is love and what is hate, and why does it matter? Is to love just a waste? How can it matter?"

"If you feel discouraged that there's a lack of color here, please don't worry lover, it's really bursting at the seams."

"This violence in the name of love."

"So strange I remember you in protest of a prayer."

"With hell's black wings did I o'erperch these walls, for stony limits cannot hold me out."

"The silent line of sky-lit eyes show that death up there shine more brightly than lives down here."

"I've loved you all along just like sunny days that we ignore because we're all dumb and jaded."

"There is only tonight and the light that bleeds from your heart makes me want to try and start again."

... there's definitely more but those were the first ones to come to mind.

I rather prefer "Karma police, arrest this man: he talks in maths, he buzzes like a fridge." better, but maybe that's just me.

I actually love the verses... hell, every Radiohead song is amazing. But there's just something about that line that grabs me... it's like a big "FUCK YOU!"

"You are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold, pale white like the skin stretched across your bones. Spring keeps you ever close, you are second hand smoke, you are so fragile and thin, standing trial for your sins. Holding onto yourself the best you can. You are the smell before rain, you are the blood in my veins." - Brand New

"Only assholes want to fall in love."

"Life has a way of fucking you up just by being there."

"Any means to an end are the means that I use to get by."

"The greatest lovers were murderers first."

"I lie to those who love me by reciprocating."

"Piss, drunks, and love: these too are found in gutters."

"I'm gonna get first fucking place for the worst fucking attitude, and I don't give a fuck at all."

"Jump right over the bodies. Life's a race. It's an obstacle course."

"They'll only love you when you're gone, or barely hanging on to all your organs and dignity while you're rotting in hospitals."

"Where's God? The ornament, the holiday song whored out on reading materials in latrines and porta-johns?"

"These metaphors are for assholes, and I'm no different. I'll get to what I mean, but slowly. Roses and poetry; is that all you want to be?"

"I was looking at this bottle and the words made sense to me, because it was all a fucking dream -- a lie."
