I Just Want To Make A Beautiful Film. I've Had It In My Head For So Long, So I Want To Try. Every Now And Again I Get Scared.

So, Like, Once A Week I Get Washed From The Top Of My Skull Down To My Toes With This Vomitous Feeling Of Fear. I Think, "just Don't Do It. You Don't Have To Do It. You're Already A Singer And A Songwriter. Really, You Don't Have To Make A Movie.".
