Gay way of wording it.
But Elliot Smith and Nick Drake have some pretty introspective lyrics

He's honestly very good. I think people downplay his lyricism because they think it's easy to write silly, childlike lyrics that also sound good but it really really isn't. There's a reason Lewis Carroll and Dr. Seuss are so incredibly famous.

>after 12 posts no one is capable of posting that well written lyric

>>127971826
this but also his solo albums have "non sensical lyrics" that are just symbolic and subtle

>>127971850
The best lyrics of all time are on Bob Dylan's It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding.) Go listen to the song. Every single line is divinely inspired.

Wolfpack by Syd Barrett is the peak (mercilessly blows away the dylan fag song posted above)

You have to be 18 to post here, Ashley.

The most well written lyrics are subtle. Lines that can evolve and reveal new aspects of themselves with repeated listens. One of the best songwriters of all time can write the simplest lines, but there is a depth of truth and humanity to them. To have written it any other way would have lost its power.

Lorca by Tim Buckley has my favourite lyricism of any album, even better than Dylan or Waits best.

C is for the Casanova
U's unglued and never over
N is for the noose you knotted
T is for the tears I blotted

C is carbon tetrachloride
U stands for "I'm standing upright"
N is not for non-infectious
T's translating little lectures

Time to fix this:
https://youtu.be/OQd01bO0OLg

The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives
The others die
And you always want a reason why

But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young
So much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone

It doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing
No unseen sign or untold truth in anything...
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
You want everything
Another world where the sun always shines
And the birds always sing
Always sing...

The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
No the world is neither fair nor unfair
So some survive
And others die
And you always want a reason why

But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young
So much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone

It doesn't mean there has to be a way of things
No special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
And it never is
You always want so much more than this

An endless sense of soul and an eternity of love
A sweet mother down below and a just father above
For living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
You want everything
Another world
Where the birds always sing
Another world
Where the sun always shines
Another world
Where nothing ever dies
