I've learned through writing that if something made me feel deeply or anything at all, it was worth it.

If I could go back I wouldn't change anything. If I was popular I would have never left my bubble. I wouldn't have ever tired to do anything different. I would have never become happy.

And I'm dying to know, is it killing you like it's killing me? And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now.

When we're falling in love or out of it, that's when we most need a song that says how we feel. Yeah, I write a lot of songs about boys. And I'm very happy to do that.

One of my goals from really early on was that if I was ever fortunate enough to be successful in music, I would want to stay the same person and the same songwriter.

At some point, you grow out of being attracted to that flame that burns you over and over and over again.

I try to read as much as I can. I try to read an informative article every day. I try to stay read up on our world issues.
