Bands with meainingful lyrics?

[stpierre]

Hey i've always been really into the lyrics of bands like Armor For Sleep, Hawthorne Heights, Silverstein, Jamestown Story, Death Cab For Cutie.. etc
I was wondering if anyone here could suggest me some bands with deep meaningful lyrics that make the listener think?
Thanks I appreciate it!

I'm not sure if you'll enjoy the style, but everything this guy writes is amazing, imo. Check out these:

If you didn't like the sound but enjoyed the lyrics, he's in a different band now, Parabelle (http://www.myspace.com/parabelle). He also has some solo material (http://www.myspace.com/kevinmatisyn). Both sound quite different from the first band.

Also, anything written by Anthony Green has incredible depth.

Political/Religious:
The Almost
As I Lay Dying
Brand New
Burden of a Day
The Devil Wears Prada
Story of the Year
Underoath

Real Life Issues (ie. Women):
Atreyu - Very Hateful Towards women, someone probably fucked this guy over one too many times
Blessthefall - See Atreyu
Catherine - I love Nick Bradwell as a lyricist, his way with words just amazes me sometimes... Their album The Naturals really makes you think.
Chiodos - Need I say more?
Emarosa
From Autumn to Ashes - A rather depressing band, but good lyrics.
Hawthorne Heights
Our Last Night
Saosin
Silverstein - You know I'm feeling down when I'm listening to Discovering the Waterfront, but I love the meanings of all the songs.
The Used - Bert is probably one of the deepest lyricists I've ever heard.

Of all, I'd have to say that my favorite lyricists are probably Alex Varkatzas of Atreyu, Nick Bradwell of Catherine, Bert McCracken of The Used, and Tim Lambesis of As I Lay Dying.

Let Live for sure. Those dudes have some really deep lyrics. Highly recommend them.
