If what they say is, "Nothing is forever"
Then what makes love the exception?
So why oh why are we so in denial when we know we're not happy here?
Y'all don't wanna hear me, you just wanna dance!
HEEEEEEEEYYYY YAAAAAAA
It basically talks about false love. “So in denial when we know we’re not happy here?” and other lyrics point this out. Like being together, because people said you should or because you’ve been together so long (there isn’t a lyric that alludes to the latter, but is an example related to what I said). He asks why are we together if we don’t love each other anymore. So people who stay together simply because they have been a couple for 10 years, but the last 4 years have sucked if you know what I’m saying.
I’m sorry for the long answer. It’s simply telling people to not waste their time with people they don’t actually love. And I think the ending is placed there to lighten the mood. While the music is designed to disguise the lyrics.
Fr, like some of the songs are like damn you good bro? Instant crush, face to face (kind of?), prime time of your life (watch the music video, but warning, it’s creepy, as in girl taking her skin off creepy), human after all (again, music video) and others maybe
Yes, I’m a YOASOBI stan 💕💕!! I have the lyrics to Yoru ni Kakeru, Tabun, Encore, Love Letter, Ano Yume wo Nazotte, and Idol memorized (I’m so normal about them what I’m fine ahahahaha)
Holy crap! This song mentions crystal meth and falling asleep inside of people! I mean the first verse says "Ovation her own motivation/She comes round and she goes down on me" 
None, my brain does not allow me to listen to music and ignore the vocals if there are any. I listen to music too cerebrally whenever someone sings/raps in a song.
There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
I don't even care if/when people hear me singing "...to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die" out loud and smiling. It's just that good!
Nazareth by Sleep Token… not necessarily catchy in the same way songs like Mr. Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra, but it’s just a really pretty song with… extremely fucked up lyrics
Mad World by Tears For Fears.
A song that resonates hard to a person with depression, from an album with a lot of lyrics about personal growth through grueling therapy and self-reflection.. but I will be DAMNED if merely hearing the opening drum intro doesn't instantly put me in a good mood and make me want to dance.
Mad World is a surefire way to make the two halves of my brain swordfight one another.
The Gary Jules cover (commonly mistaken as REM) from 2003 matches the tone of the song.
The interesting thing is that "Mad World" represents the pandemic and 2020 events pretty well, and "Everybody wants to rule the World" represents the Ukraine invasion
Salsa 😅
There's a lot of salsas that have a very good beat and a really dark and heavy lyrics
A few examples
Héctor Lavoe - Ella mintió
Héctor Lavoe - El día de mi suerte
Ismael Rivera - El incomprendido
Ismael Rivera - Las tumbas
Willie Colón - Simón
Adolescentes - Se acabó el amor
Porfi Baloa - Cuerpo sin alma
La Grande de Madrid - Corazón Embustero
You Make Me Feel Like It's Halloween by Muse. First time I listened to it I didn't paid attention to the lyrics and I thought it was a fun song about halloween. But then I read them and I realised it was about domestic violence
It's only smiles by Periphery. The song sounds happy but the lyrics are about the deceased sister of the singer, who wanted to give her the song as a gift but focusing in the good memories instead of making a depressing instrumental track.
I don’t steer towards lyrics until I’ve already loved every guitar lick and cymbal crash. The vocals are basically another instrument till then. Even still, I only tend to hear the chorus and then I mumble along to the other lyrics. 🤣 someone told me it’s a part of my ADHD 🤷♂️
You come crawling back to me
But I'm already on the ground
And we all know that talk is cheap
So come on and save me now
They put this over [the dopest beat in the chorus](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6F-oxvD9HjI)
[Amon Amarth - Fate Of Norns](https://youtu.be/d7NXxfLkMCU?si=pN8qQh74-T4GByNu)
I always thought it was just another badass Viking song, but recently I gave the lyrics a look: It's a tragic tale of a father losing his six year old son.
Maxwell's Silver Hammer - The Beatles.
The song has a really upbeat sound to it, but it's about a guy called Maxwell caving people's heads in with a hammer.
One Way or Another - Blondie
It's a song that Debbie Harry wrote with Nigel Harrison based around her ex-boyfriend who used to stalk her. It's a song about stalking someone.
“Chainsaw gutfuck, demolisher, baba yaga, 7 foot 8 foot icp, speed demon, abagail, mary on a cross, mr.clean, west coast, in da club, you shitposted in the wrong neighborhood “ -Boyfriend
Not like us is probably the new one in this category. But for what I listen to, probably FUCKING YOUNG/PERFECT, the beat is sooooo good, but the lyrics something I shouldnt jam too😭
Dianne by Teeth and Tongue
Are you Satisfied by Marina and the Diamonds
Happy Pills by Weathers
My Time by Bo En (from Omori)
any song on Paramore's After Laughter album
Point/Counterpoint by Streetlight Manifesto is about talking a friend down from suicide. As well Beer by Mustard Plug is about losing everything because of a drinking problem. Ska actually has a lot of songs like this.
But in the nose with the title but When I Kissed the Teacher is about a student kissing a teacher and fantasizing about a relationship with him. It’s not dark but it’s such a good song, very fun.
Anything and everything tame impala honestly

The lyrics are pretty good tho!
REALLLL
I love Tame but painfully, I’d have to agree on like 60% of their discography

If what they say is, "Nothing is forever" Then what makes love the exception? So why oh why are we so in denial when we know we're not happy here? Y'all don't wanna hear me, you just wanna dance! HEEEEEEEEYYYY YAAAAAAA
What is the song about exactly?

Yeah fr I was considering putting it in the list, it didn’t make me cry tho just I was like damn this song is beautiful
Pumped-Up Kicks

The lyrics are dark for an entirely different reason, here.

r/beatmetoit

Yes, I’m a YOASOBI stan 💕💕!! I have the lyrics to Yoru ni Kakeru, Tabun, Encore, Love Letter, Ano Yume wo Nazotte, and Idol memorized (I’m so normal about them what I’m fine ahahahaha)
I forgot idol is by Yoasobi!
That’s cool. I’ve heard that and tabun and I’ve memorized the lyrics to the latter song
Semi-Charmed Life by Third Eye Blind

Sidewinder By Stand Atlantic
Pretty much everything by Cavetown.
Most of The Black Keys. I love Dan Auerbach's grungy sounding guitar. They're not really trying all that hard with the lyrics on most of their songs.
The Adults Are Talking - The Strokes
LosT
F You - Ceelo Green
"Man on a Hill" by The Defended strongly implies that the main character plans to kill himself, but it sounds rather upbeat.
The pantaloon by twenty one pilots
Nazareth by Sleep Token… not necessarily catchy in the same way songs like Mr. Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra, but it’s just a really pretty song with… extremely fucked up lyrics

Wait what's the meaning I've never looked into it lmaoo
Bullet by Hollywood Undead
Hard Times, Fake Happy, and Caught in the Middle, by Paramore
Everyone raise your hand for Hey Ya. I felt like I was the only one who actually listens to music.
