“I think the problem I have with [writing] lyrics is that I can’t seem to find proper inspiration; I want my words to not only fit into the music and the songs but also to impart a meaning on their own level. Maybe its just that the music I listen to the most is graced with lyrics of such deep power that I expect too much from myself, but every time I try to write something for a song I am utterly dissatisfied. Alas.
You have inspired me to make more of an attempt to write, though, and if it comes to any fruit I will certainly send them along.”
- An excerpt from a letter from an old friend
It’s funny how a simple letter can explain so much and make you change your mind. I really do hope you start writing again soon…
