The Title of This Song is a Metaphor

Why is every song just a metaphor for something else
Why can't you just say anymore what's on your mind

Why is every poem just a bunch of words
Out of time, without rhymes

And who gets to decide, what's any good anymore
Throw a bunch of words in a Cuisinart and turn it on

Just don't say what you really mean
Let them guess more or less

A figure of speech
Does it make you feel smart
A figure of speech
Does it make you feel smart
A figure of speech
Does it make you feel
A figure of speech
Does it make you feel

Staring black eyes of darkness all alone
Playing 9 hours of Tetris world on my phone

Is one of these a better line
And is that too much Tetris time
Yea

A figure of speech
Does it make you feel smart
A figure of speech
Does it make you feel smart
A figure of speech
Does it make you feel
A figure of speech
Does it make you feel

Why is every song just a metaphor for something else
