I have to work on voice leading and composing stronger melodies. It’s a weak point in my skill set but that’s why we all practice right? What’s your views on lyrics or melody first?

Weirdly even though lyrics central for me, they always come last and usually that means I don’t finish the song until long after it’s composed. But I also am trying to go vocal-first now rather than letting the guitar lead the way.
I used to have a lot of poetry based lyrics and those I’d sort of sculpt into something if I could but it’s a harder process for sure. I don’t know how The Doors dealt with a non musician vocalist.
