Do they mean nothing? Simply because the majority of songs are about that, does not mean they are meaningless. Some people are just better at writing those type of songs, and I really am not going to criticize someone if they make an amazing song, just because there have been so many like that. I love songs w/ unique messages/lyrics, but in the end, melody plays the biggest role. The bottom line (generally speaking) is:

great/unique lyrics + good melody = good song
bad lyrics + good melody = good song
great lyrics + bad melody = bad song
bad lyrics + bad melody = bad song

I do like your lyrics, I'd prefer to hear them in context though, being sung.

I dislike that type of music.
This is more of a Tool sound.

I agree with you on the most part, but lyrics get overlooked all too often, that was my main point.

If I could sing, then I'd be happy to post a recording.
But I can't so yeah haha.

when i listen to a song
if the theme is negative or has no purpose i dont really like that song

when i write music i write it pursuing purpose and something people can learn from the song

something along those lines

but i dont really write metal so yaaa
plenty of people like those type of lyrics, just not me
but music is just someones opinion of what they like and dont

There is negative things in the world that effect people.
Such as drug addictions.
I know music about addiction (such as A perfect Circle's album Thirteenth Step) has helped a lot of people through addiction because it gives them something to relate to.

There's a lot of music that I don't like that I consider to be good.
My brain automatically breaks down the individual components to a song and then I can hear the structure of it and everything.
