It doesn't take me long to write songs.

A lot of times, I don't feel responsible for the songs myself. But that's my job or my place in life: to keep my search and catch the ideas before they pass me by.

I just write songs whenever I feel like it, whenever they come to me.

I'm not like other writers. I'm not hung up on using my own songs. In fact, my sister Bunny always tells me I sing other people's songs better than my own. She says I loosen up and give the songs a different feel.

I sometimes don't know what songs are about for several years after I've written them.

I tend to write songs critiquing myself. The best way for me to deal with stuff is to write a song about it... That's not to say all my songs are like that.

I am very busy and don't have a lot of down time, but I write my best songs in those situations. I enjoy my life the most when I have a bunch of things going on at the same time.

I write most songs randomly. They don't always deal with something I've been through but something I think is important to tell.

I just know that I love to write songs, and I have for a long time.
