I think I prefer the constant renewal. It's almost like sandpapering down any details or any contour of familiarities.

Because there's just so much in a day now, I keep writing in much more abstract terms, like I don't try to write about what happened anymore. It would be impossible.

A year's a long time, but it also flickers past in no time at all.

And of course, pop music is all about memorability and simplicity and positive messages and a little dash of joy.

Instead of just looking back, whiplash-style, I can assume there's something else coming. Time just folds over itself, like origami.

With music, I wasn't curious anymore. There was no dialogue. By the time I stopped, I knew it wasn't going to be gone forever, but it just wasn't the right time for me to care about that.

I don't think that village idea of actually knowing what you're contributing to the whole exists anymore.
