I immediately target sadness and conflict and disruption in life.
I'm a big believer that there's a reason for everything. I'm a hopeless optimist.
Conflict is a great thing to start with. For me as a songwriter, I am constantly trying to solve problems.
There's something about [pain] that excites me. If I'm feeling really awful about something, it's because I haven't experienced it before. There's something I need to learn from it.
Hopefully, my tears are worth something to the outside world.
Everyone is more than what you see on the cover; we all run deep and have our story.
