I'm new here but this site seems to be wot i was after! could i just say, in regards to your opinions, i, also, suck at writing lyrics!!
In our band, my mate will do all the lyrics coz he's good with words! then i go round and we just jam for a while. eventually one of us will hit a riff or chord pattern that sounds 'right'. then we adapt it to fit the lyrics. that is the best way, because songs with 'music first' origins seem to have no point. they may as well be instrumental!
people, write feelings, then comopose!!!!
peace out, l8r
