Here are a few that spring to mind now.

"Your heart is a strange little orange to peel, what's the deal? What's the deal?"~~Human Racing by St.Vincent.

"And for the first time, I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for, your every move and waking sound, in my time, I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind, you're mine for ever"~~Stand inside your Love by The Smashing Pumpkins.

No specific line really comes to mind. But some lyrics to entire songs get to me.
Happiness Is A Warm Gun, Martha My Dear, Hey Jude, Cry Baby Cry, Yesterday, and a few others by The Beatles all have great lyrics.
And, of course, Neutral Milk Hotel's In The Aeroplane Over The Sea album is filled with great lyrics.

"I just want to get mugged at knife point
To get cut enough to wake me up,
'Cause I know that I don't want to die
sitting around watching my life go by."

"This Week the Trend", by Relient K. I could go on quoting them for another ten, 15 posts without even looking at a song list from them.

"One", by Metallica, also has some great lines.

"Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell."
