Help. I can't write songs that actually mean what I want them to mean. I can pick a broad topic and write surrounding that but when I have certain feelings or experiences I want to incorporate it just doesn't work for me. So I either end up picking a specific topic and writing a song that feels dgktkfisys or I end up picking a broad topic or no topic at all and writing a song that sounds good but has no meaning at all. And this makes me sad because I want my songs to mean something when I want them to mean something. Has something similar ever happened to you? How do I write what I really want?
keep attempting, but when the real magic will happen is in between attempts, it will knock you in the head when you least expect it, sometimes in the middle of the night
