Lyric Diagnostic

When your AI-generated lyrics feel generic or your human-written verses sound flat, this diagnostic framework helps you identify why. It breaks down lyric failures into six states: cliche traps (predictable rhyme pairs and stock phrases like "screaming inside"), meter mismatches (syllables fighting the melody), shallow surface (stating emotions instead of evoking them), register problems (casual words over dramatic music), sound neglect (ignoring how words feel in the mouth), and structural chaos (verses that don't build, hooks that don't land). Each state includes specific checklists and interventions. The core insight is sharp: probability optimization produces mediocrity, and generic is not neutral, it's bad. Built by someone who clearly diagnoses lyrics regularly.
