Nobody can tell you you're wrong for writing a song about how you feel - even if you don't really feel that way.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm just writing songs about how I feel or about how people I know feel.
I realized that I started writing songs to make people feel how I felt, rather than just making them feel something. That's not the way I should do things.
I don't really see how any song can not feel contrived if it isn't honest, and how could I write honest songs if I don't write about stuff going on in my life and how I'm feeling?
A lot of the music I write is about love. Sometimes I won't understand how I am feeling until I write a song about it.
Sometimes you sing songs about the way you want to feel more than the way you actually do feel.
I'm not afraid to write my feelings in songs.
When something is bothering me, I write a song that tells my feelings.
When I write songs, when I sing songs, I don't have anybody in mind. I'm just trying to express what I think people are feeling.
I usually don't write songs by people calling me and saying, 'Write a song about this.' Usually I'm just going with what I want to write, so you never know.
I won't sing if I don't feel it, so there's always so much sadness and so much sentiment behind it all.
