I was searching the net to see if there were any sites that had a thread about favorite deftones lyrics and didnt find anything so i thought i would start a thread. i figured this would be interesting to see what everyone likes...
for me, i like be quiet and drive...
"it feels good.. to know you're all mine"
from digital bath...
"cuz tonight... i feel like more..."
still trying to find some good lines in saturday night wrist (just bought it today from FYE) and the self-titled albums... i LOVE the self titled record and am really enjoying SNW the more i listen to it. what about you guys?
EDIT: i found this on deviant art. there are some cool submissions from deftones fan here. check it out.

"I really wish these snakes were your arms" in Kimdracula
Whatever that means, I think it's a cool line.

Yes and yes
"In waves the ships have all sailed to the sea
Well do you wanna wait or leave with me tonight
Cross your heart and pray the ocean will take us all the way in..."
In fact the whole lyrics of Bloody Cape. It blows my mind everytime I listen to it. The way he sings it, the whole atmosphere he creates with those words & melody... for me it's not just another heavy song from the 'tones. I don't know how to decribe it, it's just... warm, overwhelming & stunning. Dang, I love the lyrics. <3
you're so sweet
your smile
your pussy and your bones
You're on fire,
and you move me like music
with your style
God I'd even lick her fucking picture
Knife Party
all of the fiends are on the block
I'm the new king

Hole In The Earthit's too late for me now.. (this is probably the most powerful, and meaningful lyric in the whole SNW album for me)
Combatdecide whose side you're on..
Bewareyou should know by now, that this could end, you should know that i could never make this work..
Pink Cellphonecan't stop the sound..
Kimdraculathe earth will see our eyes go blank tonight

Forget about that one. Brilliant.

A classic in my opinion. 8)
...Leaving to God...he might be a girl...

Oh man.. it's a shame....
i find this thread very interesting!
sorry ves, i just thought it would be cool to post in one place all the lyrics that people call their favorites. everyone here obviously is a deftones fan so i thought it was a good idea. :) you guys have mentioned a few lines that i remembered but forgot to post, so i dont have anything to add at the moment.
but i agree with ves on the line from heagram... that line is sick.
"Soon as you came in, all the beast went away
They noticed that you're warm, wait till you leave then come back for more"- deathblow
"I want to be much than more, while I watch you"-fireal
the lyrics to anniversay of an uninteresting event are really good, the more i listen to them. perhaps its just the sonic landscape chino and the guys create in this song. that song blows me away. its crazy, lately, all ive been listening to are saturday night wrist and the self-titled record. i cant get enough of either of them. SNW is just a very mature, professional record IMO. its not one genre at all you can hear radiohead influences in a few of the songs even.

good one! ;D
How cool are you? I remember.
How neat, I'm impressed. How did you come to be...so blessed.
Still you love to think you have always been this way
Well I'd love to think you will someday feel the same
And you love to think it will always (always)
If you still believe that it will always be this way
Well you're all wrong, yes you are...insane.
"who cares, who sees any-thing"
lol I don't really know what my "favorite" Deftones lyric is, but this one just came to me first...
I like too many of Chino's lyrics to pick a specific favorite one...
's about as difficult for me to choose as to which album of theirs is my favourite...
but for the record (lol pun), i think the album that has the most of my favorite lyrics has got to be Around The Fur.
"I want to be much than more, while I watch you"-fireal
I want to be just like you, then I'd be cool ,maybe not, but...Lifter

"it's too bad you're married to me"
"she haunts the roads, she waits for a new face"
'Hey Vanity, this vial's empty.'
Especially because it's the opening line.
''I want to be much more while i watch you''
Many I like were said already, so I'll just add another one I love that was not quoted yet...
