Think of a time in your life when you were sad/mad/happy/whatever. Then write your ideas about that down. Then leave as is or do what I do and use metaphors.

example

Spitting Back Words With Just A Bit More Venom

We’ve reached the end my dear
And I’ve got the rope right here
Enough to hang you right where I want you

I’ll sing back your words
Now tell me how it hurts
To not have any recourse or grace

You’re so wonderful in all your beauty
Beauty so paper thin, beauty so ugly
You’re so fragile in all your beauty
Beauty so fleeting, beauty so dreadful

How could you think I’d help you?
You killed me so many times, once will be enough

I’ll say it was the only way
And I won’t feel guilty or ashamed
I planned this every night I died

I hope you can see
The scars you’ve given me
And so ends all your voiceless whispers

You’re so wonderful in all your beauty
Beauty so paper thin, beauty so ugly
You’re so fragile in all your beauty
Beauty so fleeting, beauty so dreadful

i only started writing lyrics this weekend,
just think of some thing you hate or made you sad and just write what comes to your head dude

heres one of my songs(it only toulk me 10mins so it aint finalised

):

Disposable lover

I’m walking down the line that divides you and me,
There’s something inside, there’s more to your life,
Is it you who decides, if there is a you and me,
Handle me with care my heartbreaks easily.

Just do what you want now,
Don’t keep it inside,
Or it’ll be the end of your life,

Burn the pictures, forget the signs,
The line is now miles and it can’t be changed,
Oceans separate you and me,
Hearts no longer intertwined,
Struck down by your hate,
I lie bleeding across your flour.

To die is what I long for,
Kill me, bleed me,
Take my life like the love you once gave me,
I have nothing to live for,
Dispose of me now forget my love.
I’m nothing without you,
Just an empty shell of what was you and me.

Forget me, you don’t love me,
I’m your disposable love,
Used and abused,
Fulfill my destiny.
Kill me.

comments would be appreciated hehe:P

Just like he is saying, but it´s not quite that easy to write about the past feelings when you just got over it/her/them *g*!
Just think about what´s in your mind right now, and then start to write... just let your mind fly away.... if you want to express something really hard, then compare it to something.
P.e. when you want to say that this pain is incredeble and just hardly can hold your tears, and your body is shaking, then use words like:

And it grows,
It grows like a rosebush
and it just reached my loungs
my chest is breaking under their pressure.
Like thousand dry toungs,
Your words won´t make this better

Just let yourself go!

if you want help, listen to circle takes the square. the lyrics they write kill.

example: Our Need to Bleed.

Flesh was to sever, a palette to harness the pain. With stainless steel, we took back control of our fate. His skin so fair, a newly stretched canvas. (here was born a filthy blood red mark)Redemption dies hard when you've ripped out the roots at the seams. Pins and needles bled our black blood hearts. Hold the knife closer, just nine more steps toward the gate...You've already swallowed the key.
Have you ever heard a scream this for real? Have you ever shattered silence...
Perpetuate the unpredicted, dying for these scars we wear. Scars are tokens of the present. Refusing to accept our share of ****.
Scars are forever, a testimony to our needs, undaunted by our shallow lives, our need to bleed. Flesh was severed, a testimony to our needs, undaunted by our fragile lives, our need to bleed.
Undaunted by our fragile lives. Our flesh was severed to the bone.

come up with a story line first. it may be hypothetical, fictional, or maybe a story taken from your life. then just start wrtiting. write down whatever you think of. you can make corrections and changes later. organize the lyrics well. and then you have a song. try to use similies and metaphors, they always make for interesting lyrics,.
