I agree. There should be a separate section for lyrics/poetry. Trying to help somebody with their song by only reading the lyrics is like trying to help an artist with their painting only by looking at their palette and the colours they've mixed.

Being an excellent musician does not necessarily mean that you are an excellent songwriter and visa versa.
