Write only when your moved to do so,I only write when I'm really sad or angry. Also, try to write in general time signatures such as 4/4 so if you don't play guitar its easy for your guitarist to write something too it. Also, metaphors make for great lyrics. Using poetic language makes it better as well.

part of "Rebirth Of Dissonance"

This can't be it!
My immaculate hallways
are only charred remains
of a beautiful transition

This can't be it!
Cause you said always
and what about blood oaths
or divine inscriptions

Well am I dead?
It sure seems I am
Since when does your death
Mark the end of the day

Well am I dead?
I sure hope I am!
Since when does money
buy the hope you've saved!

thats only one verse of three, it made a f*cking awesome song and got a great response, but that was probably because of the harmony solo...curse our talented guitarist. My band, Sub Heroic, hopes to record in November...thats if we get 2000 dollars together to make 6 track EP thats mastered and all with a booklet and stuff...money...grrr
