You don't want to be conscious of everything.

Lots of people take the option of not activating their own life, of really letting it happen.

I mean that's really depressing man. Of course, the kids are freaking out. They watch cartoons and sit in front of the television and their parents are just probably yuppies who focus their entire lives around the child. The child has no sense of context, no sense of what world they are inhabiting-just like this Disnified bag of Cheerios reality. Don't give them a @#$%& pill! God! Take them out on a canoe already! You know what I mean?

I see how 14-year old girls react to me and I think I'm a good role model. Rockstar maybe not, but I'm willing to play with it for a little while, until my hair gets gray.

This is the thing I've noticed is that the greater the distance between you and any ordinary task is the measurement of how much rockstar potential you have.

I do like touring but my life sort of starts to fall apart under it after a certain point. So you just have to stop. And it's hard to.

I just write what comes to me. I didn't sit down and say ok, here is my statement. It's just a song that has a shout out.
