most of the time my songwriting process goes like this:

1. start thinking about my deepest insecurities
2. direct them at a particular person and get really upset about it
3. ???
4. PROFIT!

maybe i need to find a way to write music that doesn't end in me wanting to curl up in a ball and cry. or perhaps i'm supposed to so i can write better and angstier music?

Just write songs when you're already sad so it doesn't matter so much.

angst can be useful in music but you have to avoid going overboard.

kinda, though remember to always use a bit of subtlety, a lot of great albums veil the themes somewhat, it adds character and artistic value

and even when i do successfully get into that frame of mind, i end up just writing about something else entirely. like the one song i wrote that was about the time we changed churches. or the one i wrote that may or may have not been about my short-lived obsession with Ben Gibbard.
