Songs always convey emotions, but not necessarily the emotions of the musician and/or the songwriter. Writing lyrics is like writing poetry- often poets will assume the role of a character and write from that perspective. Thus, the emotions portrayed are that of the character and not the author of the verse. In many instances the author will put elements of themself into that character, but just as often, the author may completely leave their own personality and bias out of the lyrics
