i usually think of some lyrics, then i'll just fiddle around with those lyrics and any guitar parts that i've been playing around with, so i would write the lyrics first, then guitar part. Then share it with the rest of the band (when i had one together) and they'd write their parts that they think would fit after we all agreed on liking it or not. But now, since i have no band, i end up writing all the shit on my own and recording it on my 8 track.

i usually write songs and lyrics completely separate, and then
somehow i can piece them together. what sucks is that sometimes
i can write a song and lyric that fits with everything, so i don't know
what the hell to do.

Guitars first, they lead the song. The bass and drums usually just keep the rythem unless your technical. Then you arange the vocals to fallow the song, usually the other way around is to tuff.
