I want to make my lyrics shine
I love music, and I'm so does everyone here. My favorite thing to so with music is to write my own stuff. Recently, I've started writing lyrics. Before that, it's just been stuff on my guitar. But I've noticed a problem with my lyrics. They don't shine the way I want them to. What I mean by this, is that they're just normal songs. You can look up a topic, and find a million songs that are almost identical. Now don't get me wrong, most of the songs are personal to that person, making them shine in their own way. But when you think about it, there are only a handful if songs that can really hit you. The lyrics convey the exact emotion you're feeling in that moment. but the problem with my lyrics is that they're not like that. I don't expect each and every single one of my songs to be a masterpiece that can hit top charts, but the ones that turn out decent are like thousands of other songs, the emotion is there, but it's still missing something. It's really hard to explain what I'm talking about, but given how many musicians are reading this, you've got to know what I mean, right? So here's my question: how do i make my lyrics shine and convey that deep emotion few songs manage to do?
