It's hard to know if what you do is actually working for anyone else or not. There's so much music out there. Why would someone ever listen to what I do?

I change lyrics to the songs all the time, too. I don't know if it matters in a lot of ways because you can take what you want from it.

Maybe 80 percent of what we conceive to be a song idea or the meaning of a song is not exactly what the artist meant most of the time. It's not bad - people can take what they want from it.

That's the weird thing about music: It's never for anyone to own.

LA is an intense city. I was probably a bit too sensitive. I didn't have any friends so I was keeping pretty low key. I just whipped myself up into a bit of an emotional frenzy.

A lot of my old stuff is pretty simple. The new stuff is slightly more in-depth.

That's another interesting thing about music: It can mean anything.
