There are things that I refuse to deal with except through my music... because I don't trust humanity that much, and I don't know if I trust me that much. But I trust the songs.

Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it.

If you can't create physical life, you find a life force. If that's in music, that's in music. I started to find this deep, primitive rhythm, and I started to move to it. And I held hands with sorrow, and I danced with her, and we giggled a bit.

From in the shadow she calls. And in the shadow she finds a way, finds a way. And in the shadow she crawls, clutching her faded photograph. My image under her thumb. Yes with a message for my heart. She’s been everybody else’s girl maybe one day she’ll be her own.

If you know me so well, tell me which hand that I use.

If you call me a new-age, airy-fairy, hippie-dippy airhead I will shove my crystals up your ass.

Vulnerability can be empowering as a songwriter and storyteller.
