Minor Writer's Frustration... Need help with Ideas
Monday, April 21, 2008

I wrote some music the other day (on the guitar) and I am having the hardest time coming up with lyrics to put to it. It's a slow finger-picking song, and I've attempted to write lyrics, but was blatantly unhappy with them. As usual. So, what I was thinking was... maybe you people could give me some ideas of what to write this song about. I'm kinda sick of doing the whole "how I'm feeling" thing. It always turns out emo-sounding. lol.
So if you all wouldn't mind... I would appreciate if ya'll gave me some ideas of what to write this song about. Whether it's about Firefly, or political, or whatever... I just need suggestions!!

Please and thanks.

Go crazy. Take the maddest idea you can think of and run with it. I mean, who'd have thought a song about a light bulb advising someone to "make a birdhouse in their soul" would make a lick of sense, let alone be a brilliant piece of pop?

just to get back to my hippie days... how about a war protest song - that is if you oppose the war...
