Maybe it was mean, but I really don't think so. You asked for the truth and I told you.

Songs are like ropes that you can kind of hang on to or pull yourself up on.

I don't want any man to have control over me.

I think that music has been a great help to me and this has been confirmed by every psychiatrist I have seen. I would probably be dead if not for music.

What pisses me off is when I've got seven or eight record company fat pig men sitting there telling me what to wear.

My favorite way of working is if somebody gives me a piece of music, because I'm quite limited as a player, so it's my favorite thing if somebody gives me a piece of music, and then I can write lyrics and melodies.

All of my life, actually, I had a real strong relationship with God, but I was always in the closet about it. The only distance out of the closet I really want to come there is having my tattoo or wearing my t-shirt.
