Black and white is how it should be, but shades of grey are the colors I see.

I don't want clever conversation, I never want to work that hard, I just want someone I can talk to, I want you just the way you are.

More than art, more than literature, music is universally accessible.

It should be easy for a man who's strong to say he's sorry or admit when he's wrong.

I always wrote the music first, and the music gave me the mood and the lyrics were pretty much put in to give you a map, where that mood came from and where it's going. But my first love was really the music itself, and I guess I've gone back to that.

You only beat me if you get me to hate.

In every heart there is a room, A sanctuary safe and strong, To heal the wounds from lovers past, Until a new one comes along
