Song writing

I believe that lyrical writing doesn't have a specific method that's needed to be followed. It's something that depends on each person. As some may discover inspiration from a memory or a mood, others may need a melody in order to write something depending on the feeling that melody offers. Any how, in my case, I personally prefer to write lyrics first and then develop a melody from those lyrics. Then I'll have a clear idea of what mood i want to create depending on the meaning of my lyrics. As I had a concept in mind for the creation of my original song, which was slow and sustained vocals, I decided on making short lyrical lines. Therefore my lyrics would be minimal and the mood quite sad.

Verse 1

If I walk away

Would you even care?

Would you ask how I feel?

Chorus

Tonight that the sky is falling down

Tonight that everything falls down

Verse 2

If I walk away

If I step outside but there is nothing there

There is cold darkness and despair

And you're just a shadow made out from thin air

Bridge

My feet are falling through the ground

My world is breaking when you are not around

There are times that dreams are more real

Because everything is just filled with fear

Chorus

Tonight that the sky is falling down

Tonight that everything falls down

Tonight

Due to the fact that I decided to keep short lyrical lines, I was then able to experiment with tones and dynamics I would use in my voice at different parts of the song.
