I've always felt profoundly about what's going on in the world on a daily basis. What I hadn't felt was that I was at a point in my writing career where I could write about these things in songs and do it well.

But even when I do give interviews, I always come across as such a completely different person. It seems like there's no controlling it anyway.

It varies, I don't think there is any one set way of writing songs or coming up with ideas, it comes in so many ways you know.

I like to be around things that I find inspiring.

It's so interesting to me how songs take on a shape and body of their own and grow.

Making me into a role model is placing too much importance on what I see as a work in progress.

I'd want to read the stories that I'd written, I'd want to show the drawings that I made. That was just purely natural. So I knew I wanted to go into the arts in some way and that I'd want to show that work in some way.
