When I had my wreck, it really just put everything into perspective and really opened my eyes. I've always been one of those guys that thought 'it will never happen to me.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was fortunate enough to have a situation in my life where everything did shake out and hit rock bottom, and I did see who was standing there and really saw who had my back for real.
I just realized one day that I was so unhappy. And not only that, but I didn't even like the person that I was. I didn't even know who I was. And so 'Shatter Me' is about first discovering what was under the shell and then learning to love that person that was under it. And then not being afraid to break free.
I think everything happens for a reason and all the things that happened to me - good, bad - I'm glad they did. It's made me ready for life, for adulthood.
I busted my chin open trying to be Evel Knievel on my bike. When it happened, you could see straight through to the bone, I thought my dad was going to pass out. It left a scar that I still have now.
This wretched brain gave way, and I became a wreck at random driven, without one glimpse of reason or heaven.
For me, everything has always been an accident.
I just have beautiful memories of what has happened in my life.
I tend to view my life as an accident, almost as a dream.
My life is a big accident, so where I end up, I think it's all accidents.
My life's a wreck, and I love it.
