I get a different kind of lyric from someone else that might make me go in a different musical direction.

It's very hard to teach someone how to write a song if to begin with there's no creative crop to harvest.

You have to be very brave in that first writing session.

Cynthia's lyrics always expressed the feelings people felt but they couldn't express themselves.

We became the songs we wrote.

I think that most writers who wait until they're inspired to write are just waiting for the fear to subside.

Probably most successful songwriters have an innate songwriting ability.
