    Sometimes lyrics can be very mysterious and you can't be quite sure what they're getting at.

    For example, right now, some lyrics on my mind are...

    "No science proves the chalice of mankind"

    To me, I think it's saying that nothing can clarify the formula of mankind (formula referring to chalice, as a chalice is a type of mixture or concoction). That's my best guess, but I'm not entirely convinced. What are some lyrics that get your thoughts brewing?

    Basically the whole song of stairway to heaven is like this, the meaning in the song itself is very hard to interpret.

    "If theres a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now, its just a springclean for the mayqueen."

    Just one of the many examples from that song

    I love songs where the lyrics can be interpreted many different ways. You have a good example of a song like that with Stairway to Heaven Ben.
