If I Respect Myself And Believe In

My Career Has Been: First You Have To Prove Yourself, Then There's The Sophomore Record, Then There's This Thing And That Thing, And You Always Want To Be Understood.

I Would Never Kill Myself, But You Can Kind Of Let Yourself Die.

I Like The Idea Of The Idler Wheel - It Just Sits In Between Things, But It Makes Such A Big Difference In The Way That The Machine Is Working. That Concept Has Always Been Something That Has Interested Me, But I Didn't Really Know Why.

In A Sense It's A Lot Crazier When You're On The Road And It's A Lot Less Stable, But It's Actually Really Healthy For Me Because It Keeps Me From Isolating, Which I Tend To Do A Lot.

I Had Really Bad Obsessive-compulsive Disorder. At Its Worst, I Was Compelled To Leave My House At Three O'clock In The Morning And Go Out In The Alley Because I Just Knew That The Paper-towel Roll I Threw In The Recycling Bin Was Uncomfortable, Like It Was Lying The Wrong Way, And I Would Be Down In The Garbage.
