    the words don’t gotta make sense in music, they’re not the whole thing. that’s part of the beauty of it.

    Thanks for pointing this out. People act like lyrics have to be fit for dissection in English class to be good. If they were, none of the meaning would get to you while you actually listen to the song. The lyrics and the rest of the song need to work together to make you feel something. Extremely simple or even nonsense lyrics can bring you to feel something more strongly than if they were deep and brooding with big vocabulary and metaphors. If Tyler’s music doesn’t make you feel something? Then don’t listen.
