Whenever I have a bunch of tunes written, I always find a kind of uniform that accompanies the songs.

I think you kind of lose the human aspect when you make things too perfect.

I'm removed in my real life, and unable to express certain things face to face. So I have always found myself in this fantasy world. That's why I started writing songs and stories from a very young age. I'd much rather walk around anonymously cooking up tales than face the people that I have known forever.

I think life is the most important thing and you have to live that first and then you're art comes second.

I was born in Las Vegas and my babysitter was a female Elvis Presley impersonator. My first memory is being in her arms and she was fully dressed up as Elvis. She was an avid thrift-shopper so I started going to thrift shops when I was very young. You could put something together for no money at all.

If you wanna get to heaven, get out of this world.
