I started making choices based on what I wanted, and didn’t feel like I needed to justify them. If I wanted to cut my hair, I did it. If I wanted to move to New York, I did it. If I wanted to take a spontaneous road trip, I did it. At 24 I decided that my life is enough for me, and I stopped looking for some other piece to complete it.

To truly love is to have the courage to walk away and let the other person who wishes to be free go no matter how much it hurts.

Falling in love isn't as easy as it seems when you've seen love crash and burn right in front of your eyes.

My experience with songwriting is usually so confessional, it's so drawn from my own life and my own stories.

The words. I love words. I love to write. Being an artist is what I love.

When I'm getting to know someone, I look for someone who has passions that I respect, like his career. Someone who loves what he does is really attractive.

Poetry and lyrics are very similar. Making words bounce off a page.
