Writing is my therapy. My feelings build up inside of me and then I sit down and write a song.

I was always shy and had a huge fear of being onstage.

When I turned 19 I kinda realized that I needed to write my own songs instead of singing songs written by other people.

What's really cool is to be able to write music and have people around the world [who are] able to relate to it. They tell you that [your] song helped them get through a divorce or they got married to that song. It makes me want to keep doing that for [myself] and for people.

I miss everything about you. Can't believe that I still want youAnd after all the things we've been through.

Songwriting is like a therapy, it's a connection that you have with another person, and I'm not scared of it at all for some reason.

I didn't want to call and schedule shows or call and make people listen to my music. Luckily, my friends and family really stayed on me and made me put myself out there.
