Description One of my favourite lyrics from one of my favourite songs on one of my favourite albums by one of my favourite bands.

Can I say favourite any more? Probably, but we'd both want to stab an icepick into me.

Lyric from 'The Engine Driver' by The Decemberists. I didn't fall instantly in love with the song, because the beginning of the track sounds a little slow, and dreary. But it's a heartfelt plea, which soon opens up to a beautiful chorus. The end of the chorus, “and I’ve written pages, upon pages, trying to rid you from my bones,” sends a shiver up my spine to this day.
