I really enjoy what I do and have been fortunate to pursue basically whatever I'm feeling at the time.

If you get raised up having everything you want and then get put out in the world and try to live your own life, you've never had anything to train you how to live.

Right now I really enjoy writing songs.

I'm not a fast, stream-of-consciousness lyricist at all - I know some guys who are, and if there is one skill I wish I had, it's that.

But I needed to prove to everyone that I was a serious musician.

During a big rock show, you can flub a few things and nobody will hear it, because it gets buried under everything else.

I have way too many songs that have music but don't have lyrics.
