Death Cab for Cutie uses a lot of figurative language.
specifically songs such as crooked teeth, transatlanticism, and Marching Bands of Manhattan.
also, the indie band Mewithoutyou uses a lot of that type of imagery as well. (the leader of that band has his master's degree in English)
i hope this helps!

Hallelujah (version done by Leonard Cohen, John Cale, Jeff Buckley) uses a lot of biblical allusion
Life is A Highway (Tom Cochrane, covered by Rascal Flatts)
Those are the only two I can think of right now
