We all must live our lives always feeling, always thinking the moment has arrived.

A lot of kids spent more time out of school than in, but I always loved school and thought it was my way out of Cleveland, and out of poverty.

Why do babies starve /When there's enough food to feed the world /Why when there's so many of us /Are there people still alone

Who took away the part so essential to the whole Left you a hollow body Skin and bone.

I often write either really early in the morning, or really late at night.

I see some recurring themes: things that feel threaded together, some symbolic references, and songs about some of the big questions, like death. There are a lot of references to weather, too!

Some things remain fragments, just the lyrics and melodies or a line or two or a verse.
