How to reverse engineer meaning and what should be considered and avoided:

Ways artists conceive lyrics

1. Intentional/unintentional environmental suggestion---- example: The Beatles "Good Morning", "Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite", Conor Oberst "Moab"

2. Idea + Form---- example: Poison "Every Rose Has It's Thorn"

3. Automatic Writing (Clearing the mind and writing with no intention/purpose)---- example: Conor Oberst "Firewall"

4. Thematic Writing---- example: The Felice Brothers "Tip Your way", Bob Dylan "Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall"

5. Semantic Field Writing (A subdivision of Theme Writing)---- example: Bad Religion "Supersonic"

6. Cut And Paste----example: The Beatles "A Day In The Life"

7. Storytelling----example: Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds "The Ballad Of Betty Coltrane"

8. Emotional Transference (Love song, Death song, etc)----example: Pennywise "Bro Hymn", Conor Oberst "Breezy"

9. Written For Or On The Behalf Of Something----example: Any Theme song, Any Jingle, A song whose primary function is to express ideology
