Don't write it off completely... I'm not a lyrics person at all. For me it's about the feel and emotion in the music with the vocal - but not necessarily the lyrics, you know....
There's a thing called frisson (I think), which is that rush of emotion you get when listening to a song, look at a piece of art, read a passage that you really understand etc. Example for me is the guitar riff kick in my previously mentioned Fix You by Coldplay... The lyrics are ok I guess, but that guitar at 2:35 just hits so hard every time I hear it...
