Being a parent can make you a horrible person at times, because you're pushed to the limit constantly.

Writing screenplays makes me a better musician because it clears my head. After writing a movie, I go running back to music as fast as I can.

Everyone wants to feel that they matter.

I still feel very much an imposter in the whole music scene, which I'm quite happy about to be honest.

Texting is apocalyptic on some level. It's a reduction of things.

I write a lot, and very often I write a couple of lines that are particularly revealing in some kind of way. And then as a few more lines get added and a piece gets added, eventually the song pretty much takes over and you can't really find a way to change those things.

The way I take in the world is by seeing it; that is very much evident in the songs that I write.
