The songs come from a vulnerable place, but expressing that part of yourself can also make you feel fearless.
I was in enough to get along with people. I was never socially inarticulate. Not a loner. And that saved my life, saved my sanity. That and the writing. But to this day I distrust anybody who thought school was a good time. Anybody.
I may have aimed too high sometimes, asked too much of myself and demanded too little from those around me.
