Thought it might be fun. 
Everyone posts lyrics, and we guess the nature of the song.

"Dearest Jane I should’ve known better
But I couldn’t say hello, I don't know why
But now I think, I think you were sad
Yes you were, you were, you were
What I say, I say only to you
Cause I love and I love only you
Dearest Jane, I want to give you a dream
That no one has given you
Remember when we found misery
We watched her, watched her spread her wings
And slowly, slowly fly around our room
And she asked for your gentle mind
Misery is a butterfly
Her heavy wings will warp your mind
With her small ugly face
And her long antenna
And her black and pink heavy wings
Remember when we found misery
We watched her, watched her spread her wings
And slowly, slowly fly around our room
And she asked for your gentle mind
Gentle mind, gentle mind"
"Misery is a Butterfly" by Blonde Redhead
also:
"After all these implements and text designed by intellects
So vexed to find evidently there's just so much that hides
And though the saints dub us divine in ancient fading lines
Their sentiment is just as hard to pluck from the vine
I'll try hard not to pretend
Allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night
Since I don't have the time nor mind to figure out
The nursery rhymes that helped us out in making sense of our lives
The cruel uneventful state of apathy releases me
I value them but I won't cry every time one's wiped out
I'll try hard not to give in
Batten down to fare the wind
Rid my head of this pretense
Allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night...
Mercy's eyes are blue
When she places them in front of you
Nothing holds a roman candle to
The solemn warmth you feel inside
There's no measuring of it
As nothing else is love
I'll try hard not to give in
Batten down to fare the wind
Rid my head of this pretense
Allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night...
Mercy's eyes are blue
When she places them in front of you
Nothing really holds a candle to
The solemn warmth you feel inside of you"
"Saint Simon" by The Shins.

Song About Unhealthy ENTP ENTP 2w3 so/sx maybe?
Butterflies by Lana del Rey
Back in high school, in the yard, we used to fight
But you would sneak into my window every night
“I wanna take you, take you to the world outsideâ€
Well, I assume it's what I wanted at the time
But your eyes were like a constant warning sign
“I wanna take you, take you†and I didn't mind
And even though I didn't believe you
You had a smile so easy to see through
I know a little part of me will always need you
Try to reach you, try to please you
Everything you say makes me wanna stay
But everything you've done makes me wanna run run run
2nd song:
High by the Beach by Lana del Rey
Boy look at you looking at me
I know you know how I feel
Loving you is hard, being here is harder
You take the wheel
I don't wanna do this anymore, it's so surreal
I can't survive if this is all that's real
All I wanna do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach get high
All I wanna do is get by by the beach
Get by baby, baby, bye bye
The truth is I never bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me
'Cause I know that
All I wanted to do was get high by the beach
Get high baby, baby, bye bye.
I get an xSTP vibe from High by the Beach. Enneagram, 8w7 sx/sp maybe?

High by the beach gave me an ESTP 7w8 vibe. Seemed much more like E7 than 8.
VNV Nation - Nemesis
Everybody wants to live in a lie
But why should we delude ourselves?
It's not as if we can't see something's wrong
Where's the duty to what's right?
Intentions end with empty words
And chaos replaces order
Those who shout the loudest impose their will
Upholding laws that serve the few
Declaring peace while the sirens sing
In the name of progress, the name of madness
Drum beats faster, crowd shouts louder
And chaos replaces order
I want justice for the voice that can't be heard
Vindication for every suffering and hurt
Let retribution hold dominion over earth
Because Judgement Day's not coming
Judgement Day's not coming soon enough

I agree - 1w2! Maybe so/sx? Sometimes it seems more ExFJ, and sometimes it seems more ESTJ. I think ExFJ fits more overall though...leaning towards ESFJ of the MLK Jr. variety.
Looking In - Mariah Carey
You look at me and see the girl
Who lives inside the golden world
But don't believe
That's all there is to see
You'll never know the real me
She smiles through a thousand tears
And harbors adolescent fears
She dreams of all
That she can never be
She wades in insecurity
And hides herself inside of me
Don't say, "She takes it all for granted"
I'm well aware of all I have
Don't think that I am disenchanted
Please understand
It seems as though I've always been
Somebody outside looking in
Well, here I am for all of them to bleed
But they can't take my heart from me
And they can't bring me to my knees
They'll never know the real me

5w6 sp/sx lyrics imho, could be 5w4, anyway I am sure it's 5ish and sp as hell, also written by an INTP 5w4 sp.
"Right Where It Belongs"
See the animal in his cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?
See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all
Right where it belongs
[Chorus:]
What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks?
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?
What if all the world's inside of your head
Just creations of your own?
Your devils and your gods
All the living and the dead
And you're really all alone?
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you're hiding in the trees
[Chorus:]
What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you used to know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?

Seems a bit INFJ.
Don't say, "She takes it all for granted"

Now it seems more INFP.
It seems as though I've always been
Somebody outside looking in
Well, here I am for all of them to bleed
But they can't take my heart from me
And they can't bring me to my knees
They'll never know the real me
The song's protagonist seemed like an INFP, less likely an INFJ. Got so much E4 ("you'll never know the real me") from that song. Also feel like a bit of 9, and perhaps a bit of 5 ("outside looking in"). Disagree it's E3, the song seemed like the anthem of E4
Would say a tritype of 4w5 (sx/sp) 9w1 (sx/so) 5w4 (sp/sx).

Never heard ENTP can be 2w3
It's certainly not among the more common types for ENTP but I doubt it would be exceptionally rare (e.g ENTJ 9w1 sx/so); just an ENTP with reasonable Fe. Bear in mind, it was 'unhealthy' ENTP.
Also, I really don't see much (or any) Ne in those Lana del Ray lyrics, seemed much more ESTP, maybe ESFP. Its aesthetic didn't fit with NT at all.

I think Mariah herself is a 3w4 (although I consider 6w7 every now and then...but I think her 6ish values and tendencies are the inner voice of her 6 soul child) so I feel like regardless of the song her lyrics might always have a 3w4 glossiness to them. She has a very flowery and eloquent command of the English language so there's a lot of precision behind the imagery she creates in her lyrics.
I can see where [MENTION=4945]EJCC[/MENTION] is coming from with the 3 though anyway. "You look at me and see the girl who lives inside the golden world, but don't believe
that's all there is to see" sounds like the clashing between a 3's impressive outward persona and wounded true self. And at the same time I see where you got 4 with the ideas of your identity conflicting with the outside world. I don't see much 5 though, although I get 5 is supposed to be the type that is disconnected from the world and observes it from a distance I think 4s can feel as equally distant and disconnected. And while 5s innately prefer their shell out of choice, I think these lyrics have more of a longing for connection and the feeling of acceptance.
MBTI...I have no idea. I think it's easier to interpret Enneagram with lyrics than MBTI.
But obviously interpretations of lyrics are subjective and vary from person to person so I don't think there's one solid type for each set of lyrics posted in this thread...there'll just be more of a consensus for some more than others.
EJCC sees it as 3w4, you see it as 4(w5?), and I see it as somewhere in between the 3 and 4 spectrum.Here's another one since we're on the topic.
Petals - Mariah Carey
I've often wondered if there's
Ever been a perfect family
I've always longed for undividedness
And sought stability
A flower taught me how to pray
But as I grew, that flower changed
She started flailing in the wind
Like golden petals scattering
And I miss you dandelion
And even love you
And I wish there was a way
For me to trust you
But it hurts me every time
I try to touch you
But I miss you dandelion
And even love you
I gravitated towards a patriarch
So young predictably
I was resigned to spend my life
With a maze of misery
A boy and a girl befriended me
We bonded through despondency
I stayed so long but finally
I fled to save my sanity
And I miss you little sis and
Little brother
And I hope you realize
I'll always love you
And although you're struggling
You will recover
And I miss you little sis and
Little brother
So many I considered
Closest to me
Turned on a dime and sold me
Out dutifully
Although that knife was chipping
Away at me
They turned their eyes away and
Went home to sleep
(Sleep)
(Sleep)
(Sleep)
And I missed a lot of life
But I'll recover
Though I know you really like
To see me suffer
Still I wish that you and I'd
Forgive each other
'Cause I miss you, Valentine
And really loved you
I really loved you
(I guess I loved you)
I tried so hard
But you drove me away
To preserve my sanity
I found the strength to break away
Fly

I could see 6w5 for this perhaps. O: Dancing between the line of phobia and counterphobia. That's a tough one though.
Guilty until proven innocent
We condemn your soul and fate
Never mind the possibilities
Too busy for logic or to calculate
Take part in a diminishing breed
Where complex turns to simplicity
When pain is acknowledged
Frivolous calculations will be abolished
Without judgment what would we do?
We would be forced to look
At ourselves emerged in lost time
Assuming what may be, without judgment
Perception would increase a million times
