Well, "Cube" is definitely one of my favorites, both for the distinctly beautiful sound and the lyrics. These lyrics in particular are found near the beginning of the song...and actual quote in the lyrics that reads "karada o moyashite aru ga mama no sugata ni nare", which translates loosely as "burn this body so it can reveal its true form". The lyric itself resonates with my odd sense of spirituality (which is a story in itself) along with describing rather accurately my life experiences up until this point.
Also, it's a perfect example of his lyrical prowess. The first kanji is something that I actually had to look up (thanks Jim Breen's online kanji dictionary!). I could hear what he was saying, but in the booklet, it's not the one you'd expect for "karada". Said kanji denotes dead body, so it adds an entirely different level of meaning to the lyric.
Oddly enough, now that I've typed that kanji so many times while putting together the design, it's been automatically defaulted as the primary kanji for "karada" on my computer XD
