What songs do you enjoy that have a meaning.

For example The Gates of Delerium or Russians.

I enjoy Gentle Giant's "Three Friends" album.  The themes in the lyrics are really easy to relate to. 

On the other hand I really enjoy Tales From Topographic Oceans by Yes, where the lyrics feel very meaningful, but I don't have a concrete idea of what they mean.
For the love of goldens.

Porcupine Tree's "Stop Swimming"... fantastic lyrics.

With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. and you still have the frog you started with.

The Affection Over Reason Tracks bij Draft 2 Design,'


And the tracks of Vinterriket, it's amazing how well the title suits the tracks without the use of lyrics.

These Walls and I Walk Bedise you, even though they are far from the best Dream Theater songs, they have a special mening to me, same goes for Money by Pink Floyd.

Anything by Fish/Marillion, Mann/Twelfth Night and Pink Floyd up to "The Wall" (I might not like it, but the meaning and the music are inextricably linked).
