loving someone for who they are, instead of what they look like.

I have a number of melodies that have come about through playing around with the guitar or piano. then I'll be going through my day, and a topic or phrase will catch my attention. I'll build up a lyrical chorus, then start thinking about which melody it might fit into. Eventually I'll start filling out the backstory (almost all my songs are anecdotal) and the lyrics round themselves out.\n\nThe easiest part: writing the music that plays underneath the lyrics, between choruses. As long as you don't mess with the key too much, almost anything simple will do.\n\nThe hardest part: The bridge! The bridge! The bridge! A great bridge can make or break a great song. Most beginning songwriters don't even think about it. Pearl Jam writes great bridges. Led Zeppelin used to take the bridges out of earlier songs and form entirely new songs from them. ("Whole Lotta Love" started as a bridge from "Dazed and Confused.") A lot of the softer rock bands from the 70's, such as Ambrosia and The Little River Band, wrote great bridges.\n\nThere's no right or wrong way. As you probably know, it's a very personal process, and each songwriter finds there own way. Good luck, hope to hear some of your music someday!

It might make good lyrics for a pop song. It's too long though. Cut it in half.

write about what's in your heart...or your passion in life...or inspiration...something catchy...world issues are big right now...or something that no one knows anything about...like the lives lived in a different country...that doesn't get world attention but really should...

I sure hope this question isn't deadly serious, because I intend to have fun with it!\n\nIf I can only have one theme song, I guess I would pick "In the Hall of the Mountain King" by Edvard Grieg. I particularly like the arrangement I have linked as it is for strings only, and is not quite as scary as a full orchestra version. This would probably only play, at first at least, in my secret headquarters, an ultra-modern hideout done in steel, glass and black leather, but disguised as a rocky, deserted island somewhere in the middle of the ocean.\n\nhttp://www.kendormusic.com/str2004/9841.htm\n\nHowever, as I believe in the power of music to act on people in a deep and sometimes even subconscious level, I would also stock my arsenal with:\n\n"Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" by The Police. This would be for use at press conferences and with the public in general, because a little brainwashing never hurt anyone.\n\nhttp://www.elyrics4u.com/e/every_little_thing_she_does_is_magic_the_police.htm\n\n"I'm Just a Girl" by No Doubt. This would be used when dealing with officials and heads of state, to fool them into thinking I am not a threat in any way. I would assume that after hearing the beginning, they would stop paying attention before it gets to the part where the lyrics declare I am tired of the current state of affairs.\n\nhttp://www.leoslyrics.com/listlyrics.php?hid=slks2Krqgc0%3D\n\nFinally, for those who express some doubt, after the revolution, I would pacify them (somewhat) with "Bitch" by Meredith Brooks. The lyrics speak for themselves.\n\nhttp://www.musicfanclubs.org/meredithbrooks/bitc.html\n\nAlso, once I have taken over the world, I would make the following changes:\n\n--Ice Cream would be declared the most desirable source of calcium, and to encourage people to eat it, it would be declared a non-fat, no calorie food, regardless of what's actually in it.\n\n--The media would have to stop showing pictures of unnaturally thin men and women and declaring that they are how everyone should look. All models would be required to be normal-sized or plus-sized people, and airbrushing would be banned. If a cover model has a blemish, she has a blemish, just like every other normal woman in the world.\n\n--No criminal would be executed for their crimes. They would instead spend the rest of their lives in solitary, with only scratchy 70s pop music and cheesy romance novels to alleviate their boredom. And they'd have to drink milk to get their calcium!\n\n--All abusive parents and spouses/partners would immediately be relieved of their burdens. Children would go to a loving home where they are actually wanted and treasured, and adults would receive help and counselling, and be introduced to nice people who would actually love them and be good to them. The abusers would be reduced to drinking milk.\n\n--Everyone, everywhere would have access to good medical care, good food, clean water, and freedom from fear.\n\nMy list could go on and on and on, but I will spare you the details of the other things I plan to put into effect once I achieve world domination...

Anything you want, songs are like poetry you write when something comes in mind. You can write about so much, love, sadness, a death your mourning off, a heartbreak, etc.........

Well, you can always listen to other artist's songs and get some ideas. That what I did when I wrote my first song.

First off, asking how to on here is not a good start, and is definetly not very "punk". Depending on what part of the song you're talking about, there are many different answers to your question. But, no matter what part of the song, in order to write punk you need to have heart. You need to be passionate, and it needs to be believable. Otherwise, NO ONE will care.\n\nLyrics: These need to be real. Don't write about drugs if you've never tried them. Don't write about sex if you've never had it. Write what you KNOW. Write from the heart. It does NOT have to rhyme. If the emotion is real, people will feel it and connect with it, no matter how bad the words may be. Political is great in punk, but if you don't know what you're talking about, don't bother.\n\nMusic: This is where you might need a little experience. Luckily for you, it's punk, so it's going to be simple anyway. For guitar, just try messing around with power chord progressions, whatever sounds good will work. Try to make it so a vocal melody will fit easily with it, palm muting is a good tool but don't overuse it. Bass in punk, depending on the sub-genre, is usually pretty complicated. I'd definetly suggest writing just the guitar unless you're experienced on bass, otherwise, get a friend who can already play. Ditto with drums, and it needs to be a driving beat that doesn't overtake the message of the song.\n\nListening to a lot of punk will help you, but too much will handicap you in creating your own original STYLE. Most of the writing process is a hands-on, do it yourself thing, that can't be explained or taught.\n\nJust give it your best shot, as long as it comes from the heart it shouldn't be too bad.\n\nHope I've helped you at least a little bit!
