You're looking for help from God, you say he couldn't be found. Looking up to the sky and searchin' beneath the ground.

What blows me away most is how sure people are of themselves.

We're so quick to go to make things black and white, and to put things in their box. But everything is this mixture - and that's what this world is - is this blend of different things.

I started performing at home as a kid putting on shows and lip-syncing Michael Jackson for the grown-ups. Then, in musicals and plays in school. At 17, I was performing in coffee shops and in parking lots at Phish shows. At 18, I had a band that played local shows in the Northwest.

Everyone's right or wrong, Everyone's got an opinion, put them in a song and let me keep on living.

The idea that God's mercy is connected to whether or not I shave is ludicrous and I need to just trust myself, and that, you know, if I'm deserving of God's mercy, I'll get it, regardless of, you know, my beard.

Vulnerability is a wonderful thing. We're all so afraid to be vulnerable in this world.
