Life doesn't come at you. It comes from you.

You're an island of reality in an ocean of diarrhea.

I'll experience vulnerability when I just don't have any more to give.

I love writing songs with people, which is about really taking risks, throwing yourself over the falls and really seeing what you're made of and seeing how it sticks. Seeing how others react to it, and seeing also how it can become a melody and how it can really take off from your experience. It's a way of seeing life unfold on the page before me.

Two halves don't make a whole. Two wholes make a whole.

I feel like I write the same album every time but each time I try to convey the message more simply.

With everything you're letting go, I'm sure it's going to have a different value to you. And every time you let go you're going to be a different age or there's going to be different circumstances. So I think the best way to do it is to simply wish the best for that thing.
