If you can’t handle a heart like mine, don’t waste your time with me.

I’ll always definitely strive to write songs that are going to help people feel confident in themselves.

Confidence Help People Writing
It’s very hard to be an artist, on my first album, and I’m like asking for money for a music video for every song – it’s so hard to do. You have to pick your battles for sure, but I definitely want – and I’ve always worked to make it all connect – for all of it to feel cohesive.

I’m not used to writing about happy emotions, I’m just used to pulling from my sad or angry – happy emotions are very hard for me to portray in music.

I just don’t really get to watch a lot of movies, like recently at least I haven’t been able to but I did watch The Exorcist for the first time ever, recently, and it didn’t scare me like I thought it was gonna scare me.

I go with what I like and I generally just cling to things that are pastel and remind me of being a little kid. It’s just what it is right now, but I go through phases.

I’ve had a lot of people come up to me after shows and tell me that “Dollhouse” really helped them with whatever they were going through with their families. I thought that was really amazing, that it could mean one thing for me but another thing for someone else.

Dollhouse was definitely inspired by the whole Edward Scissorhands vibe where all of the houses are perfect, but inside each home there are very messed up families.

I listen to a lot of music. But I definitely haven’t looked at an artist and like thought I want to have a song like this.

I think that every decision I make in my life is based off of an emotion – and it definitely hurts me in some situations, and helps in some situations, like obviously writing and stuff is my favourite thing to do because I get to use all of my emotions and express them in that way.
