Butterfly Boucher Quotes

I haven't written songs for quite a long time actually, since I finished the album, which was about two years ago. I only just recently started up again with ideas.

For years and years I only ever did instrumental, so I'm still trying to get confidant with my lyrics and find the right balance. I'll generally get inspired from the music. I'll have a guitar line, and then I'll have a melody line, and I hook the lyrics up to fit that rhythm. So, my lyrics to tend be very rhythmic as well. They work with the music rather than the music works around them.
