I think it's important that you know that I will never change. But I'll never stay the same either

I think I feel in love with words before I feel in love with music.

When I was growing up, I didn't really know much about being popular or cliques or anything like that. In elementary school and middle school, you start to kind of realize what it's all about. There are cool kids, and then there's you, and you're just trying to figure out where you fit in.I learned a lot about acceptance and rejection,Those are the themes that you'll find spread throughout my music and weaved in throughout all of the lyrics. I really know what it's like to be accepted, and I also know what it's like to be rejected. And those are lessons I learned in Wyomissing.

I think I’ve developed this pattern of running away when it comes time to fall in love and stay in a relationship.

Sometimes when relationships end, you write an e-mail and say everything you wish you said. Sometimes you don't push send.

I was from a small town, and nobody really expects you to leave, especially before you graduate. That doesn't happen.

When you hear people making hateful comments, stand up to them. Point out what a waste it is to hate, and you could open their eyes.
