It's a very romantic sentiment, but to think that you would die if you didn't write, well, I would definitely choose to not write and live.

I write music all the time. When I talk about having writer's block, it's more to do with lyrics than anything else.

I like the idea that we build up these walls or rules or laws to maintain our reality, and when they fall away, you're left with a whole bunch of illusions. Smoke and mirrors.

Coming to terms with the fact that my marriage was a failure was devastating and very difficult. I blamed myself for a lot of things. It took me a very long time to get over it.

I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to go crazy. I don't party like I used to.

Music gave me a sense that I was worthwhile and that I had something of value to offer the world even though everybody was telling me that I didn't.

I have a full life: I have two amazing kids, I have great friends, great family. And right now, that’s plenty for me to manage. A new relationship just seems like way too much work.

Deep within I’m shaken by the violence of existing for only you...

Nothing outside of my child is important.

Time is a beautiful thing. It’s like when you meet an old lover on the street six years later and they don’t look so ugly anymore.
