About this Quote

This quote by Sarah McLachlan speaks to the innovative procedure of composing music. She is saying that she is constantly composing music, but when she experiences writer's block, it is generally related to lyrics rather than the music itself. This suggests that she is more comfortable with the musical element of songwriting than the lyrical element. It likewise suggests that she discovers it harder to come up with meaningful and creative lyrics than to make up the music. This quote is a testimony to the difficulty of songwriting and the value of lyrics in conveying a message. It also speaks to the value of having a creative outlet, as Sarah McLachlan has the ability to express herself through her music.
