Songs... Poems?

Misery by Good Charlotte

Look at all these happy people
living their lives
Look at all these plastic people
they're dying inside
Look at all these shallow people
telling their lies
Look at all these empty people

When I was listening to this song, this one verse really stood out to me. I think it is really deep, because all this is so true. Most of the time, people don't really pay attention to the lyrics of a song, they just listen to it because it sounds good. But usually I try to pay attention to the lyrics of a song, because a lot of them have hidden meanings that reflect the real world. I think that is one of the reasons I like music so much. Because they have messages and it makes it interesting. I think songs are just poems, with a tune. They have a depth, and they are trying to give a message.
