It's so easy to get caught up in your own experiences. They can seem so important. But there are billions and billions of other experiences going on.

I am very self-critical, but that's a good thing because it keeps me growing as a human being and as a musician.

I want to be in control of my own destiny.

You can make bad choices and find yourself in a downward spiral or you can find something that gets you out of it.

It bugs me that people think my songs are personal because it means I have to explain myself all the time.

I don't like myself, and I don't like to be looked at.

I need space between me and the audience - and the more space the better.
