I agree with David in that I approach them differently. When I'm writing something for a film score I'm working on, it's obviously focused on the building of the arrangement.
When I'm writing something with lyrics, I'll usually start with some nugget of the chorus or a verse, and write it out from there, but usually always with a melody in mind.
However, there are times when I run across a chord progression and grabs me and I'll set that aside and write lyrics to an existing arrangement, but this is the exception and not the rule, at least for me.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
