“I don’t wanna touch the sky no more, I just wanna feel the ground when I’m coming down.”

Don’t show the world how alone you’ve become.

Nothing compares to the emptiness we both share.

Environment is very important to me. Sometimes I have to perform during the day for festivals, and my music does not work in the daytime. It is nighttime music.

For a dreamer, nights the only time of day.

When I write, I write about my surroundings. Sometimes it’s light, and sometimes it gets very dark.

I usually dont like to spoon feed my audience, because I grew up idolizing story tellers who tell stories using symbolism, so it was in my nature to do the same.

We’ll find our love in the sky.

House of Balloons’ was special because I had no deadlines, and nobody knew me, so there were no expectations.

I’m the most boring person to talk to.

Thanks to my fans that have been with me from the beginning, I was able to sell out arenas on my own.

I’ve had sleep paralysis.

They asked me why I don’t quit drinking, I told ’em I’m not a quitter.

Nothing is stopping me from doing what I love to do.

So you’re somebody now, but what’s somebody in a nobody town?

They say they want heaven; They say they want god. I say I have heaven, I say I am god.

Too many people spend money they haven’t earned to buy things they don’t want to impress people they don’t like.

Meditate so that you can feel immense silence, and love so that your life can become a song, a dance, a celebration.

We feel and experience ourselves to be eternal.

Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.

I don’t really care about how good a song is, I only want them to reflect what I felt when I was writing them.

One of the most terrible feelings in the world is knowing that someone else doesn’t like you. Especially when you don’t know what you’ve done to deserve it.

As a matter of fact, I rather feel like expressing myself now.

The best fashion advice I’d say would be just to do what makes you comfortable and what makes you feel cute, and that’s how you’re gonna look your best ’cause when you feel your best, everybody else can feel it, too.

Only be with somebody if they make you feel like the best version of yourself. You can’t sacrifice yourself for anybody, you know?
