There Aren't Many Poster Children For Cool

I Never Went To Concerts When I Was A Kid, So I Never Knew If What I Was Doing Onstage Was Right.

Though Dreams Can Be Deceiving; Like Faces Are To Hearts, They Serve For Sweet Relieving, When Fantasy And Reality Lie Too Far Apart.

My Whole Life, People Have Been Saying, "why Are You So Angry?" And I Didn't Know What The Hell They Were Talking About. After I Saw Myself At The Mtv Awards, I Realized, Wow, I Do Kind Of Come Off A Bit Intense. I Wasn't Upset At Mtv At All - I Didn't Mean To Come Off That Way. But I Think It's Good If I Appeared A Bit Angry. People Are Too Complacent.

You Know, The Age Thing Really Bugs Me. Do People Have More Of A Right To Not Like What I Say Because I'm 19? I'm Up Here Because Of What I Write. Obviously, I Must Know Something, Or I Wouldn't Have Been Nominated For Best New Artist. Sometimes It's Like, "you're Right. My Mother Wrote These Songs."

I Would Really Like To Go Back To School. I Would Love It Now.
