You feel this pressure that people will take you more seriously if you play guitar, but I've decided I'm a singer and that's enough.

Ignore reality, there's nothing you can do about it.

I wasn't born with a natural talent for songwriting.

I can understand why some people might look at me and say, 'What's she got to be depressed about?' I get that a lot in Britain, where mental health issues seem to be a big taboo.

I'm all out o faith, this is how I feel. I'm cold and I am shamed lying naked on the floor. Illusions never change into something real. I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn. You're a little late, I'm already torn.

It's much easier to write when you're sad. But you can end up isolated and depressed because you almost need to put yourself in that situation to have that angst to write from.

I am such a bad liar. I would like to lie, though.
