I should be more careful in expressing the state of my psyche It may be bruised but it always gets back up. Thanks for the support, poets.

I'm looking for songs with lyrics that are entwined in such a way as to make the two one. Imo, it's a rarity. But I know, too, that each of us has different catalysts that connect us to "that which shall remain unnamed". So there's that to contend with...

What I'm looking for are that handful of songs/lyrics that represent perfection; the "Shakespeares" of songs; songs that clear the impossibly high bar of being indisputably pure expression of "that which will remain unnamed". Something along those lines : ) The Nick Cave song/lyric I posted speaks to it, imo

This one does, too: https://youtu.be/8pKUwTooZ3o?si=CxmEP0QZMOBES6JI

I'm not, of course, expecting that we all agree. I'm just looking for what you personally consider songs/lyrics that connect you to "that which shall remain unnamed".
