I prefer the band situation. I prefer the relationship. Music is meant to be that way. It's meant to be interdependent.

I don't really need to be remembered. I hope the music's remembered.

My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her... It's never over, All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter... It's never over, She's a tear that hangs inside my soul forever.

If you do anything regularly for a while, sooner or later the weirdoes will show up.

I just want to be a guy with a guitar.

Sometimes a man gets carried away when he feels like he should be having his fun and much too blind to see the damage he's done, oh sometimes a man must awake to find that really he has no one. So I'll wait for you and I'll burn will I ever see your sweet return, oh will I ever learn? Oh, Lover you should've come over. Oh love well I'm waiting for you.

The people who raised me musically are my mother, who is a classically trained pianist, and my stepfather.
