The songs I was writing still had lyrics or sentiments that didn't match what I was feeling. It was old, negative energy coming out of me still, but it needed to all get out so I could trash those songs and put them in the bin. And then I was able to let the new songs out.

I want to get comfortable with my insecurities until I am no longer insecure. I want to be comfortable in my skin so that I do not need to dump any of my discomfort onto someone else in the form of judgment.

May you be satisfied to never know why-sometimes someone just wants to die.

It's not hard to grow when you know that you just don't know.

Sometimes you have to step away from what you love in order to learn how to love it again.

When I'm in a place like Iceland, I allow myself to take a little more time to divert off onto other paths creatively for a while and see what comes to me.

I want to keep a thread between the studio and the stage, and I want to flow more easily from one to the other.
