That is true. For me, if its a good song it doesn't need lyrics, but they can be an added bonus.

I appreciate music. The effort some bands put into being original is astounding. But to me great lyrics also make the music that little bit better. Kind of like a compliment ratehr than a bonus

I can appreciate good lyrics and deep meaning. But sometimes it feels like the writer was trying so hard to be on the next level of "emotion" that they brought out a dictionary to help with the process. Trying to be to poetic.

I don't read between the lines to often. Everything gets over analyzed as it is.
