At those times I’d suddenly go very quiet and not talk to anyone, stunned from the developments, being a werewolf and all.

I don’t like the idea of songwriting being therapy. I don’t want to put myself so directly in the foreground.

I liked getting a mirror and walking around with it facing the sky. I’d imagine I was walking in the tops of the trees and falling into the sky, or walking up the stairs whilst going down.

I hope in telling honestly I can in some way help other people to do so also.
