Songs really tend to connect.

The songs that you start to write that you are a little scared of can be the ones that you have to tell.

I love creating. I am addicted to the drug of creation and creating things. I get a little depressed when I am struggling to find what I know is locked inside. If it's a lyric or something that is challenging me, I can be very depressed, but when it's like heaven opens up and it gives you a song, it's amazing. There's nothing else that I enjoy more probably.

Trying to find a heart that's not walking away.

It's not the circumstances that determine who you're gonna be but how you deal with these problems and pains that come your way.

I love being vulnerable. It's scary. I feel like the best stuff that I have ever written can come from real vulnerable places.

Just because you've written a song doesn't mean that you have pulled through. There are definitely songs where I embodied someone else's pain and that was purely to serve the listener because I knew they needed to hear something. But most of the good stuff comes from my life.
