I used to get a shiver if I thought about holding balloons, because I was scared of floating away.

The age thing really bugs me. Do people have more of a right to not like what I say because I'm 19?

I feel like I'm 100 years old. I can't tell you what I did today. I can't tell you what I did for seven years. I can't tell you. It happens so seamlessly - I'm just floating along and seven years go by.

The way I feel about music is that there is no right and wrong. Only true and false.

I used to love to make things - you couldn't drag me away for dinner because I was always writing a story or something.

I know what my job is: I write the songs, I sing them, I play them on the piano

I'd say that I've been reclusive the last 34 years. That was my big thing as a kid, staying home from school. I've trained myself to be psychosomatically sick a lot. Anytime I go out, it is just something to deal with, even walking to the grocery store. If I'm supposed to go from one place to another place that isn't that comfortable, I usually don't go.
