I feel different. You know this many times over, because you are a parent, but it transforms you. It's this incredible experience where, in one way, you are still very much yourself, and in some ways you become even more connected to the rest of yourself. All of a sudden, you just get more connected to your child self, and your teenage self, and all these selves that you've maybe been abandoning at every date post that you pass.

You can take art, you can have a baby, you can have a career.

This is the way I want to die. Torn apart by angry fans who want me to play a different song.

Not everything in the world is easy or powerful.

And people are just people, They shouldn't make you nervous. The world is everlasting, It's coming and it's going.

I started to write before I went to SUNY Purchase music conservatory. As an audition I submitted what I now think are really awful songs, but I guess they saw something in them.

Sometimes I make stuff, and even I don't like it. There's something about it that I don't really like, or annoys me. For whatever reason it needs to come out.
