I'm sure we all know at least one or more of our favorite songs by heart. But have we really taken the time to listen to the lyrics we sing? I mean, sure, there are some totally ridiculous lyrics out there (Blurred Lines, anyone?) but there are also some lyrics that are masterpieces in themselves. Next time you hear these songs, pay attention to the words. Because these words can tell some amazing stories.
