While You Can Fill Every

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.

Most Of My Songs Are Pretty Sketchy. There's Not A Lot Of Bass Sections. I Don't Write Big Bridges. Sometimes I'll Try. But It's Hard For Me To Focus That Way, Because I Always Think It's More Interesting To Just See What Will Happen Next.

I Always Have To Remember That I Am The Narrator, But It Doesn't Have To Be About Me. A Lot Of Songwriting Is About Trying To Use What Part Of Me Is Valid In Telling The Story. I Don't Want To Overcook It, You Know? Sometimes It Seems That's Really Where The Work Is.

It Would Be Really Nice To Make A Record That Would Be Super-fun To Play Live - A Record That Would Be Funny, With A Little Bit Of Heart.

Writing And Creating, Those Things Come To Me On Their Own. I Feel Like... You Sort Of Summon Them And It's Like Allowing The Universe To Enter Your Heart In An Entirely Different Way To What It Normally Does. It's Like Inviting That Energy Of The Universe To Enter Into Your Craft In A Way Where It Has A Meaning.
