and im no good at short creative writing like peotry. im better at longer forms of creative writing, so i never end up writing anything with short phrases to fit into lyrics
I can respect that , but i was only making a few keywords there , and telling how i put things together , it can be 1 out of a 1000 different keywords that comes to mind , then i write it down for futher reference , then you can make up a line that goes with that keyword , that doesn't make it a cliché , and basically i don't think its possible to write something that haven't already been written about , it will always referre to the same point of someone yelling " Cliché " why ? Because even if you write about a pair of shoes it has already been done ....

i bet there isn't a song about clitoral hoods

ahahahahaahahah clit.. ahahahaha. i alot of times i write about fiction if i cant think of anything particular to write about. The few songs i have written have all related to me some how so im kinda running out of real life experiences.

Bleh, I just play random crap until I come up with a tune I like and then mumble like an drunken fool untill I find a melody i like. Then I freefrorm the words, trying to make them rhyme. I'm pretty good at that.

i feel that for lyrics just writing without really trying to put extraneous thought comes up with the best stuff. Just kinda stream of consciosness. I have written some cool stuff that way
