I thought ‘I wonder what will happen if I try and root myself somewhere?‘ Look back over the past eight years.

I'd like to make music for as long as I can; it feels like something I need to do.

I think everybody who relates to music is kind of isolated. It's lonely. Everyone who uses the creative side of their brain is that much removed from reality. They are looking for answers wherever they can find them.

I would never sit and write a song in front of anyone, because you're so vulnerable. I don't know at what point in the process that it becomes acceptable to pass them on. When a song wants to be written, it will be written. When it does come, I will very rarely go back and edit lyrics. I'm quite a rational human being, and the only part of my life that I can't rationalise, or can't make sense of, is how a song gets written or why.

The female psyche is inherently self-sufficient, because female sexuality is inherently self-sufficient. I think women are maybe more comfortable, or women are able to find physical beauty in each other that doesn't terrify them.

If I don't have an outlet in which to express myself...throug h songwriting or other mediums...I get a bit jittery.

It’s hard to accept yourself as someone you don’t desire / As someone you don’t want to be.
