When you get to say something in a song you’re not directing it necessarily at one person. When it’s in a song it’s easier to get it out. I don’t really worry so much about it when I’m writing a song.

I think anyone who is an artist or writer or owns their own business or whatever can agree that when you come up with something on your own, it’s an addictive feeling.

Song Worry Writing
I sing the best when I’m really in my voice. It’s kind of like I’m meditating but I sort of imagine my voice as a physical thing. I see colours, I feel it moving out of me and I try to tap into images that I was tapping into when I was writing the song.

Things aren’t always as they appear. I’ve been believing things to be a certain way because I want them to be that way. I build up illusions in my head.

Songs don’t really feel like me unless I somehow shed a little secret or open myself somehow or be vulnerable. When I’m singing these songs, it feels like me, and that comes with the vulnerabilities and the strengths and the moments of triumph or whatever.
