I'm still digesting your post, but in the meantime, consider this: A band called Skid Row released an album called "Slave to the grind" in 1991. There's a song on there called "In a darkened room", which is clearly about child abuse. Have a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNPu58Sprkk
Maybe some of these artists have been trying to draw our attention to this shit for a long time...
edit: if any of you like metal or hard rock, try the whole album. Its actually quite good.

Hunger strike by Temple of the dog comes to mind too. Same period. Weird lyrics:
'And they're farming babies while slaves are working. Blood is on the table the mouths are choking. I'm going hungry.'

Whoah, look at their freaking logo! They used to be VOIT (Valley One In Ten): http://onenten.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/onenten-history-1.jpg
Haha, that's sooo similar to VOAT's logo!

Today, the pieces fell together for me and I feel that they were sending a message with this album
Just so you know, this is the type of stuff people say in early stages of schizophrenia. It usually kicks in around or after the age of 25.

I guess it's always good to keep an open mind and be aware of your own mental state. He's just giving him a heads up. Technically he is right there, so the guy may want to be careful and avoid drug-taking or anything else which could exacerbate a potential mental illness. It's just that this sort of statement seems to be the step before proper "delusion of reference" behavior, which is a key criteria used to diagnose skitzophrenia. Thankfully he didn't say "I feel they were sending ME a message", because then it would be pretty clear cut that he has some issues.
But not trying to imply anything myself here. To clarify, I just think the dude spent too long thinking about a song, not that he's mentally ill.

Before 25, I worked in a hospital and most cases I saw were late teens.

Have you ever written a song? If you had you'd realize that coming up with phraseology is more important than clearly communicating. Songs are rarely messages but rather moods that the author wants to artistically encapsulate. It's cryptic, but that's the art, it isn't meant to be deciphered.
