In my songs, I'm not saying something that's never been said before. The have lyrics aren't going to blow people away. It's the emotion and the melody that drive it home.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I don't like to get too specific about lyrics. It places limitations on them, and spoils the listeners' interpretation.
I've gotten to a point where I don't want lyrics to mean anything.
People assume that the meaning of a song is vested in the lyrics. To me, that has never been the case. There are very few songs that I can think of where I remember the words.
Lyrics are always misleading because they make people think that that's what the music is about.
Lyrics have become so dumbed down nowadays. People don't want to have to think about lyrics anymore, they just want to be told something. Until these great things started happening with us, I'd really given up on reaching people like that.
The emotion of a song's lyrics has always been what grabs me deeply.
Lyrics are kind of the whole thing; it's the message. Something might have a beautiful melody but if it's not the truth coming out of your mouth, it's not appealing.
Most of the time, the lyrics are kind of like my secret messages to my friends or my boyfriend or my mom or my dad. I would never tell them that these songs are about them or which specific lyric is about somebody. Often, when I sit down to write a lyric, it is in the heat of the moment, and something has just happened.
The whole beauty of music is that it goes where your words won't let you.
The lyrics are so important to me. And that there is something going on in the lyrics. That the song actually has something to say.
