I really, really enjoy fitting words together - but I only enjoy it when it's easy, when it sort of rolls along by itself. I never erase anything [and] I hardly ever write anything down... The song will be finished before I write it down... I won't write a song unless it serves me in some way, unless I feel I have to write the song to make myself feel better. If you're not overflowing with something, there's nothing to give.

I just want to feel everything.

Because for whatever reason, even though I want to stay home all the time and be left alone, I want to tell the world who I am now.

Never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie.

I really believe in completely being naive and having high hopes when meeting someone new. I can kind of re-do my stupidity or my naivete.

My derring-do allows me to dance the rigadoon around you but by the time I'm close to you I lose my desideratum.

It's calm under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.
