So, this post is going to go a bit differently from the first part of my musical inspiration posts! I feel like to talk about the lyrics of these songs in detail would defeat the point of the list. If I tell you exactly what kind of scenes these songs evoke for me, will the lyrics have the same kind of organic effect on your inspiration as if you had gone into it with no ideas whatsoever? That's what I think, at least. Instead, I'm just going to give you this list - 5 of my favourite songs (with lyrics this time!) to inspire writing. As a bonus, I'll let you guys know my favourite lyric from the song, too.
1. Time - Cute is What We Aim For
Natural disasters when she cries
2. She Falls Asleep (Part 2) - McFly
When she's asleep, the air she's breathing is for you
3. Lothlorien - Lord of the Rings: The Musical OST
Sunlight and stars in her hair
4. The Broken Minor - Elliot Minor
The city and twilight that marks and fills the sky
5. Boats and Birds - Gregory and the Hawk
I live to let you shine
Let me know the kind of songs you listen to while you write! Keep writing!
