I reached a point in my life where I felt like I was living through some old character.

Why is it that all non-conformists look the same?

It's what the mainstream does - they absorb things and they blunt the power of it. And so the next generation and the next generation has to become more shocking and more provocative in order to get any rise out of anybody.

If I have resistance to something, it means there's something wrong. The resistance to me is a sign of fear.

I look at other members of my generation who have basically done one thing, and one thing well, and have been handsomely rewarded for it.

To re-embrace what I once loved about music has been a warming process for me, because it's a good, earned feeling now.

I feel like I'm always fighting not to repeat myself.
