I don't function well in certain aspects of society, and you can read into that what you will.

Its always important to fall back on your instincts and core beliefs and that was pretty hard for me to do but trusting in my self the way I trusted that if I were to sit at a piano for two hours and I was going learn something, that trust I'd put in myself really helped me get through it. For five to six months I just wrote songs and believed they would turn out to be things I could be proud of and be happy.

I write songs on a course of time that's comfortable for me. I would probably never write a song from start to finish in the course of a day, hell probably not even a week. My mind is always going to change and my emotional state will also change on a daily basis.

Music is a self-propelling thing. You can not rely on anybody but yourself.

I like what I like, I don't like what I don't like, and I'm very bad at toning myself down.

You play a couple of shows, and these label guys come - and they leave halfway through a show. Then the phone calls just stop. And your heart is broken.

I was never a 'sit down with a notepad and write lyrics' kind of person.
