I often get ideas for songs on the tour bus at odd times. Like at 6am when no one is around, I'd just write.

Every time i try and wink at someone, I mess it up and end up scaring people.

It's one of the craziest feelings to be on stage and know that you were sitting on your bedroom floor when that song came to be and now there's an arena full of people singing it.

For everything I do, I think about a 6-year-old girl and her mom that I saw at my concert last night. I think about what those two individuals would think if I were at a club last night. I never want to be arrested, and I never want to get a DUI, those are my moral values.

I'd like to be my old self again but I'm still trying to find it

I never get tired of signing autographs 'cause I used to do it so much in class dreaming about the day that it might mean something to somebody.

I never read one hateful thing said about me by some 12-year-old. So I got to live an actual life. And I've kept that mentality. Just because there's a hurricane going on around you doesn't mean you have to open the window and look at it.
