I don't want to put out something I'm not psyched on just because I finished it. That's the stupidest reason to do something, really. I want it to be up to my standards. I don't want to put out something I wouldn't listen to.

Whatever notoriety Fall Out Boy used to have prevents me from having the ability to start over from the bottom again.

Sometimes before it gets better, the darkness gets bigger. The person that you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger.

Lyrically, I personally lean towards venting.

I don't want to be George Lucas and go back after the fact.

I love playing our older songs along with newer ones but If all I have is my old stuff, I quit. Creating is more rewarding.

I don't like to Google myself. I try and avoid it whenever I can.
