My two cents
For writing lyrics...
I think of the words of lyrics as the notes in a guitar riff. You just know what you want. So pick them out, think of the words that describe the feeling you have. You then start with a phrase and use a choice word in it. Keep going until you get stuck, and when you do, you can start backwards from the rhyme with another choice word. Sometimes the phrases you create need to be re-ordered for the sake of flow, so do it. The choice words are there for expression, the phrases are for explanation of the choice word or feeling and for the flow of the song. It becomes a puzzle... orchestrate. Master your own puzzle.
