Lyrics vs. Music

if lyrics would be the important thing, I would read poetry instead. Appearantly, I don't. I also listen to instrumental music (God is an astronaut, explosions in the sky, buckethead, ludovico einaudi etc.). The instrumental part just says more than the melody. Also lyrics orders you what to imagine while listening to a song. And in sonh without lyrics (or when you cannot understand them) you can just let your imagination flow to the atmosphere instrumental part gives.

If that makes any sense
