Often that is the case, especially if the lyrics are not clear enough to make out. Even when they are, auditory processing disorder is a lil shit sometimes.

Sometimes, though, something in the lyrics will jump out at me...a particular turn of phrase, poetic devices, alliteration, some deep metaphor...and that pulls me out of the music and into hearing the lyrics. The music is now in the background of the audio painting and the words come to the foreground.
