I have pit bulls barking at me on half of the love songs.

I'm doing a little freelance work, and I think everybody's trying to take their minds off rock and roll for a little while and get some perspective.

My parents know that I have always been sort of a dark melodramatic kid, so they were never concerned.

I focus on the words and then I have fun putting together the music after.

It takes us a long time to write a song that we all really like, so it makes sense that it would take a while for the listener to get there, too.

A person with grace is somebody who's socially graceful or is a classy person, but sometimes you just feel the opposite of that, and you just feel like a jerk and a loser and a weirdo.

I've never had so much fun being back at my job sitting in front of my computer. Compared to 10 months on the road, going home and sleeping in my own bed every night is really nice.
