not an analysis thread lol
but the reason is absolutely their passion for music and lyrical complexity.
lots of people want to listen to music with meaning and/or beautiful lyrics, for example:
"they say all's well that ends well, but i'm in a new hell everytime you double-cross my mind
you said if we had been closer in age maybe it would've been fine
and that made me want to die
the idea you had of me, who was she?
a never-needy, ever-lovely jewel, whose shine reflects on you
not weeping in a party bathroom, some actress asking me what happened, YOU
that's what happened, YOU
you who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes
sipping coffee like you're on a late night show
but then he watched me watch the front door all night, willing you to come
and he said
AND
"and i was never good at telling jokes, but the punch line goes:
'I'll get older, but your lovers stay my age'
from when your Brooklyn broke my skin and bones
I'm a soldier who's returning half her weight
and did the twin flame bruise paint you blue?
just between us, did the love affair maim you too?
cause in this city's barren cold
I still remember the first fall of snow
and how it glistened as it fell
I remember it all too well"
AND

(2 years apart from each other)
AND
"how's one to know, i'd meet you where the spirit meets the bone, in a faith forgotten land
in from the snow, your touch brought forth an incandescent glow, tarnished but so grand
and the old widow goes to the stone everyday, but i don't, i just sit here and wait
grieving for the living"
"i wish to know, the fatal flaw that makes you long to be magnificently cursed"
AND LASTLY
"Time is too cruel, I hate us
Seeing each other now is even more difficult
It's all winter here, even in August
My heart is running on time, alone on the Snowpiercer
I want to go to the other side of the earth holding your hand, and put an end to winter
how much should my longings fall like snow
before the days of spring return, friend?"
no wonder there are so many Bangswifties!
