I just try to write songs that people are going to have a dialogue about.

The cool thing about being a songwriter, or a writer, I guess, in general, you can take on a lot of different things, experience a lot of different things, just by writing about them.

People write music, and the music is out there for people to interpret it how they want to.

I write songs about real things... The subject dictates the mood and it goes from there, really.

Writing a song is much like being an author. Yes, we all have tools to write (everyone has a brain I hope!), but that doesn't all of a sudden make us best selling authors.

I'm not musically inclined. It blows my mind that people can write music. I don't have that talent; I look up to the people that do.

I think that most people who write about music just want to fill some paper. They're not really interested in getting to the heart of something. Otherwise, they wouldn't write what they write.

Writing songs is really about writing. It's not about necessarily focusing on one particular style or making it one particular thing.

I still don't know if I can write songs. I don't think anyone ever knows if they can write songs.
