Every time a song goes on, I can’t focus on anything else because I feel the lyrics going into my brain and replacing my thoughts with other words. Especially if I’m trying to do homework or coding. So because of this, I only listen to classical music or the instrumental tracks of modern songs I do like. My sister thinks it’s weird. I only listen to lyrical songs if I want to sing them (theatre kid)

Does anyone else relate?

    I am absolutely like this! Especially if I’m trying to write, I end up just typing the song lyrics lol. I love music, but I have to be very careful in my selections when I need my focus to be elsewhere.

    When I’m trying to study, lyrics don’t work, definitely. That part of my brain is occupied. Tell your sister to get off your back, wtf does she care what music you listen to?
