The ocean inspires me because there's the energy of the water moving.

A sunny, happy day is beautiful, but when it's moody, and storm is coming, there's an energy in the air.

I used to want to be fully observational, but I'm just not that kind of writer. My process always changes depending on how, when, and where inspiration stiles me.

I think most artists would agree, it's one thing to be playing in front of a crowd that's loving it, it's another thing to add cameras, but it's a really cool trade off to be on television.

I can write songs, but I'm not gonna really feel good about the song unless it feels like me, and I'm not gonna release a song or put it on an album or play it in concert unless it really feels like me.

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

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