I can't remember all the times I've tried to tell myself to hold on to these moments as they pass

I'm not a spiritual person at all, but I do think that the world doesn't have to be as lonely as it is.

You live through stuff, and it affects the way you feel about the world, and you write about it.

Being in a band is about making the band the priority.

But what you realise after you've been in the business for a while is that people develop opinions about you that don't have anything to do with your music, they like or dislike you for a million reasons, they like or dislike you for your last record.

I'm really good in pain. I snapped my leg in half on stage and played a whole show. But I can't sit there with someone that loves me.

I'm so busy trying to breathe through the pain that I'm breathing through the pain of being with people, and that is no way to spend a life. Eventually, they'll just go away, because you will make them sad. That's something I've proven quite adept at doing over the years.
