Things aren't always as they appear. I've been believing things to be a certain way because I want them to be that way. I build up illusions in my head.

The people at festivals are much more open to dance and just sing along. They come right up to the stage and they're very thankful. That's one thing I really appreciate about the yoga culture, that the people are very thankful. They come up to you as much as any fan would, but they express sincere gratitude and I appreciate that.

For some reason I can articulate my feelings better in song. I wish it would come out better in regular life too though. The issue is that I struggle with is that I'm worried about what people think, or how they'll react to whatever it is I have to say, and obviously that's not a good thing.

I also love fall, when it starts to rain, or even just before the rain - that is the most inspiring thing.

Pain is a part of life. It's certainly part of my creative process.

When you get to say something in a song you're not directing it necessarily at one person. When it's in a song it's easier to get it out. I don't really worry so much about it when I'm writing a song.

I love being creative, and for me it doesn't matter what it is - whether it's art or music or just daydreaming.
