It's not really a conscious decision to do a quiet album or a noisier album. It's just something that happens, I guess.

I probably watch movies more than I actually listen to music, I think.

All the songs are written from the perspective of a person, being me, who had trouble with some of the big questions in life, like, are we meant to be together with the same person for the rest of our lives? Or, is it frowned upon if a man goes through many women at all times? What is the meaning of love versus sex? It's just a lot of big questions, I guess, that are really difficult to answer. People see it very differently, but people sometimes suppress their lust. And it's not only sex. It could be lusting for anything that's supposedly very bad for you but can be good for you, too.

This is the life I live, and this is the stuff I experience. And like any good writer, I should just write about what goes in my life and what goes on around me. So that's what I chose to do.

I don't work at night. I'm not very good about working at night. I get tired during the day and I usually like to save my nights to try things out recording.

I've always written stuff based on personal experience, but I've always disguised it by the use of characters.

I always put a little bit of restrictions on myself, and I only do it for my creativity.
