The music I write, I feel, is not the kind of music for a 25-year-old.

While you see a chance take it, find romance, fake it, because it's all on you.

If you call someone up on a mistake - if the drummers put an extra beat in a bar or something - you have a lot more authority if you can show them how to do it right.

The percentage you're paying is too high priced While you're living beyond all your means And the man in the suit has just bought a new car From the profit he's made on your dreams.

Half of us is easy, the other half is hard. Even though we do our best, we end up being scarred.

I think a lot of people came into rock n' roll to try to change the world. I came into rock n' roll to make music.

Punk [rock] seemed like rock 'n' roll music utterly without the music.
