While the concept guides the course of the album, lyrics are much more personal, and many people don’t even pay any attention to them. I do, though. So, while a concept could be amazing, the actual lyrics could be garbage. There were some pretty memorable lyrics in 2015, so here’s my top 10 favorites.

Poetic and romantic

8. Transport Aerian – “Darkblue”
Dark and dreary
____________________________________________________________
7. Breaking Orbit – “Transcension”
Hopeful and ethereal
____________________________________________________________
6. Kingcrow – “Eidos”
Practical and hopeful

5. Steven Wilson – “Hand.Cannot.Erase.”
Sadness and inner struggle

4. Gazpacho – “Molok”
Enlightened and exact
____________________________________________________________
3. Subsignal – “The Beacons of Somewhere Sometime”
Illustrious and incredibly creative

2. Lonely Robot – “Please Come Home”
Metaphysical and somehow also grounded

1. Riverside – “Love, Fear and the Time Machine”
Impactful and just so applicable for me on a personal level
