I find sometimes it's easy to be myself, sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else.

I grew up in a very politically aware family. My mother always taught me to question everything, never believing anything simply at face value - especially the nicest, most adamant politicians.

Funny the way it is, not right or wrong, somebody's heart is broken, and it becomes your favorite song.

Life it seems a struggle between what we think and what we see

How could I have been anyone other than me?

Sometimes it's nice to be able to reflect on the music itself and then write lyrics that I feel anyone can relate to. It's not my dreaming tree that is dead. The feeling of a loss of hope is universal. There are moments that we've all felt a little bit of it, so I don't think it is something that is too hard to identify with.

Turns out, not where, but who you're with that really matters.
