Writing lyrics

I started writing lyrics for the new material yesterday. Yeah, me. When was last time I wrote lyrics for Scumfusion? It was about 10 years ago! And I can say that those lyrics back in 2002 weren't exactly serious ones in the same way than these space/scifi lyrics I've been writing now. It's like a whole different world if compared.

Originally in this current case I thought I'd write just something like 1-2 songs' lyrics - and let Timo write most of the lyrics as in past few releases. But it seems we are going to share the lyrical burden this time. I'm having a great inspiration currently, ... and as a result I've got already lyrics written for seven songs since yesterday. I'll continue as long as I have good ideas - I feel I still have some more ideas I could use, so it might well be that half of the songs have lyrics written by me, and other half is done by Timo. That should bring some nice variation to the lyrics too, since our writing style is clearly different.

I've been drawing influence from some classic scifi movies (like Alien & Aliens), as well as the post-nuclear Fallout game series (I've been a big fan since first two Fallout games already), and I've been mixing my own space visions as well as using Timo's "tales of Lossidia" in some ways too. I feel that the lyrics I've written will fit the songs in a great way - and I'm as much looking forward to tales Timo will create for this package.
