I've sacrificed lots of aspects of my personal life to do what I do.

People can get blinded by a sense of being comfortable or feeling secure, but that's quite a cynical point of view.

People when they're growing up they just want to fit in, there are a lot of social pressures on young people today to kind of have it all figured out and know what they want to do, know who they are straight away and I've always tried to embrace that sense of pressure, but I've got people around me that do as well.

I think every touring musician sacrifices aspects of their life to do it.

I got to a crossroads in my life where basically I was asked to choose between staying at home and being with them, or being in a band and doing what I want to do.

I might take what I do very seriously, but at least I'm doing something, rather than sitting on my arse and being no-one.

Lyrically I address loads of things that I've never talked about before, about me or about other people.
