why do so many rock songs reference the weather

[PurpleFencepost]

it’s like every other song has something about rain or sun or storms like we get it the sky is doing things but do we need a whole mood about it every time... i get that weather can set a tone but sometimes it feels lazy like they couldnt think of anything else to say about how they were feeling so they just pointed out that it was cloudy maybe im overthinking this but i swear if i hear one more ‘thunder in the distance’ metaphor im gonna lose it... does anyone else notice this or is it just me...
