He does have his moments with lyrics (the opening lyric of Hurt, for example, is still very powerful), but;
"pleading and, needing and, bleeding and, breeding and, feeding, exceeding"
"She shines
in a world full of ugliness
she matters when everything is meaningless"
Two of the more extreme examples, yeah, but his lyrics aren't always great. Lots of day-ray-may, cat-sat-mat rhyming. I'm not saying they're bad, but they're not his strong point. His strength, I think (aside from the experimental nature of the music, which can be amazing) is his ability to make lyrics like that work. He's very good at songwriting outside of lyricism, making lyrics, whatever they are, flow incredibly well and catchily (witness; the outro of Somewhat Damaged; "The me that you know.." and following, from The Becoming).
Anyway, my point was that only The Collector, if any, really stands out as anything close to an interesting song title, to me.
