"Writing songs is how I deal with being a human. I think I’m inclined, that everyone’s inclined, to try and understand what it’s all about and this is just the way I do it. A lot of it is searching and trying to understand and trying to find something that everyone can understand or relate to as well, because I don’t feel like I write songs just for me. It’s so elusive. Sometimes I’ll write a song and not remember writing it. I think it’s the closest thing to being spiritual for me." -The Rumpus.
