WTF lyrical lines/passages

Starting out with a couple:

From Yes' "Close To The Edge":

My eyes convinced,
eclipsed with the younger moon attained with love.
It changed as almost strained amidst clear manna from above.
I crucified my hate and held the word within my hand.
There's you, the time, the logic,
or the reasons we don't understand.

From Richard Harris' "Macarthur Park":

I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it.
And I'll never have that recipe again, oh no

i exchange v cards with the retards

- mack maine

The Richard Harris one is a metaphor, I imagine.

the yes one is coded echo from a utopian future
