I Can Sort Of Will That Stuff

On Heartbreaker, I Had To Sing Those Songs. I Drank The Way I Did Those Songs. I Ate The Way I Did Those Songs. I Communicated The Way I Did Those Songs.

I Should've Died A Hundred Thousand Times,teetering Stoned Off The Side Of A Building.nobody Loved Me And Nobody Even Triedyou Can't Hang On To Something That Won't Stop Moving.singing And Dancing To Them Nighttime Songs.

Being A Rock Musician Is Already Like Ego-tripping Hardcore. You're Self-consumed, And You're Always Thinking. It's Really Easy To Say, "i'm Going To Write A Song About This Situation, And When I'm Done, Everyone Will Care." To Everybody Else, That's Ego-tripping.

I Got On The Phone With The President Of My Label And I Said, "obviously, I Write Songs In A Lot Of Styles And Play A Lot Of Different Kinds Of Music. We're Getting Toward The End Of Our Business Collaboration. If You Could Envision A Record That You Wanted To Hear From Me, What Kind Of Record Would It Be?" It Wasn't Like Asking Him To Fill An Order, It Was Really Just A Conversation. For All The Things I'd Ever Asked Him, This Was One Thing I'd Never Asked, And I Don't Know Why. So I Was Curious. And The Thing That He Was Most Interested In Hearing Was A Solo Record.

I'm Actually A Pretty Upbeat Person Outside Of Playing Music.
