Foolishly play with the fires of rumor, only to risk being burned by its treacherous flames.

I've been playing live gigs since I was 13. I really don't know how to do anything else, and please God strike me down.

If you're trying to do something different, you can't ask someone to help, because they'll want to make it not different.

I don't mind saying what's on my mind.

When you try to put everything into music, there's no room left to try to make you think we're cool. We know you think we're cool.

After all, nothing helps to write lyrics more than to mess around with the language.

I write about my life and the lives of people around me and situations, and the idea's for each record to try to make you a better person, to understand the life that you lead more.
