. . . Listening to the whole song is of course a lot different from reading the lyrics, I often listen to this song on repeat during a depressive episode, it helps that tiny bit

You're right. The auditory experience definitely has something to do with how we experience the lyric (obviously, since music is an auditory experience). And I barely mentioned that in my OP. For the example I gave, the beat and rhythm defintely catch me first, then hold me as I re-interpret the lyric to fit my mental health needs.
Thanks for sharing. Please share others, if you think of them!
