I had my gothy phase, but I was never a troublemaker or anything like that.

There's always room for improvement. I'm always focused on the results, and those are the precise things that I don't really experience as a part of the performance.

From day one, I was already famous in my own head. It didn't take anything to make me feel that way. I know I'm totally not famous. I mean, it just depends on your perspective.

It's not illegal to be an asshole.

The ideal is to live forever, right? Or to live right now and just be grateful that I feel good. I'm definitely grateful for every second that I'm alive. At this point in my life, I definitely take time out throughout the day to just stop and be like, "Everything is cool." It's as good as it's gonna be, because it only gets worse.

I never see songs as permanent. I'm always in a state of revising everything.

I knew what I wanted to do, which was to become a recording artist, so I definitely felt like I had a calling. The performing part was the part that I wasn't sure about.
