I was in the studio so much, it was about the search for air in a metaphoric sense, and the breathing has more to do with travel for me, about the search musically for open air.

When you write songs, you can't really point out the exact thing you're inspired by. It's more a state or a mood or an atmosphere that you're trying to put into words.

I'm always on a train or a plane, so wherever I happen to be is home.

Everything is temporary. Everything is bound to end.

When you record, you live with what you recorded for many many years, but when you play it's just an hour and a half and then once it's over it's over.

So usually even if you like a sentence or a story or something, it won't come out that way - it'll come out years later, and in a different way, and you don't really control that.

I'm nothing more than what you actually see, but I am also the complete opposite.
