When I figured out how to work my grill, it was quite a moment. I discovered that summer is a completely different experience when you know how to grill.

I am getting to the point where the only love worth being in is the love worth singing about.

When I was 8 years old, it mattered what my favorite singer said and wore and expressed opinions about.

I've apparently been the victim of growing up, which apparently happens to all of us at one point or another. It's been going on for quite some time now, without me knowing it. I've found that growing up can mean a lot of things. For me, it doesn't mean I should become somebody completely new and stop loving the things I used to love. It means I've just added more things to my list.

You can't lead me down that rode.

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.

You never imagine that when you say hello to someone and you fall in love, that some day you'll have to say goodbye.
