Quote

Songwriting is my way of channeling my feelings and my thoughts. Not just mine, but the things I see, the people I care about. My head would explode if I didn't get some of that stuff out.

I'm never nervous about being vulnerable with my songwriting because my favorite artists are ones that are vulnerable. I want people to feel like they know me.

My experience with songwriting is usually so confessional, it's so drawn from my own life and my own stories.

I've never thought about songwriting as a weapon. I've only thought about it as a way to help me get through love and loss and sadness and loneliness and growing up.

Songwriting is kind of like a craft. It's not something that just comes in a dream. You've got to work at it.

I'm never scared what people are gonna think about music that I make.

Songwriting is too mysterious and uncontrolled a process for me to direct it towards any one thing.

The whole point of music is being able to share your story. I've been songwriting for a long time, usually while on the road, as a way to get my feelings out.
