Interesting Things To Write A Song About?
First off, I am NOT asking you to write a song for me.
I love writing songs, but I feel like the topics I write about are becoming a bit redundant. I write Alternative/Punk.
I found this website where people post the meanings to songs. I found out Hole’s song “Jennifer’s Body” is about a murder. I also found out Kurt Cobain wrote “Scentless Apprentice” about a book he had read. I looked up some meanings to Queen Adreena’s lyrics and I found out KatieJane wrote about feeling schizophrenic (X-ing Off The Days) and even sex (Kitty Collar Tight).
What do you think would be a cool topic to write a song about?
Thanks!

Mainly just get inspired by your favorite songwriters.
I often think “I want to do what Bono is doing to me right now, and that is to write a song that can change the way someone thinks and inspire them, maybe make them jump and happy while they sing along.”
Just go with one idea and it’ll all flow.
