Is songwriting something that just comes naturally, or is there some way you can make your songs better?

I love writing songs, but when I listen to other people's songs, some songs I just get so frustrated because they have such good lines! Ex. "Lost your balance on a tightrope, lost your mind trying to get it back" Like, I could never think of that! How do they??
I need help! :S
Thanks!

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

It definitely helps to have a knack for it, but you can hone your craft over time. I would recommend keeping a notebook and a pen close at all times to write down observations, ideas, and even interesting conversations that you have.
Exercise your writing by looking at lines and ideas that other lyricists write and try to voice a similar idea in a different way. We all start as a product of someone else's work. Still, do your best to avoid plagiarism.
Pay attention to styles that you like and try to develop your own style and grow from your own work!

Don't be discouraged bud, it takes time!

writing songs is different from one another's perspective
writing songs is a natural gift
one who is able to understand his/her surroundings and oneself only can write songs
if you write even a single verse of your own imagination it is praiseworthy for your talent
please donot compare yourself with others
it is my heartfelt request
this tendency is the main reason for one not to appreciate his or her own work
try to criticise other's work
you will think your work is better
do not criticise your own work
then you will only feel other's work good.

last but not least my dear friend please practice a lot
it will definitely improve your standards of writing songs.

ALL THE BEST

p.s. could you send me a few of your song lines pleaseeeeeeeeeeee?
i would really appreciate your kind work because i love it to read others hand written words
