Some guy is good at putting these verses together, and some guy is good at singing them. That's just the way it is.

I was kind of pathetic. That's what got me playing out in the street. I ran out of money and needed more gin for the night.

I really enjoy playing music. I feel like it's something to try to give to people.

For a while, it was something to try to push at people, playing old murder ballads and being upset about everything I was seeing around me. But now I feel a lot more at peace with it.

Real music is what I consider to be uncorporatized music, the music that just happens. I feel like that's not a very well-known thing.

I'm just a guy that sings songs because that's what he likes to do, I guess.

There's this food that's evolved over thousands of years and people have made their own kind of thing, but it's not art-food, yet. It can be, but it's just food. It's the thing that people do because they have to, because they need it. I feel music is one of those things, too.
