the line is: "every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief. All kill their inspiration, and sing about their grief." (unless you're referencing a live version, and Bono changes things round all the damn time in those!) it's my favorite line too, and it's from "The Fly" for some reason, it always made me think of Billy Corgan. (dunno why).
Yes! I wanted to cry,too! And the first time I heard "Stuck in a Moment You can't get out of" it completely floored me. I was very pleased with that album as a whole. Just because you get back to basics, doesn't mean you can't grow in other ways. Yay for concentration on [really good] lyrics, which used to be a hallmark of U2, and is again!!
