The older I get, the more I realize that you don't have to be around people you don't want to be around, and you don't have to be in a situation you don't want to be in. You have the power to rise up and leave.

More quotes by Aaron Bruno
Some people are more affected by, I hate to use the word success, but I don't know what else to say, but some people are more affected by that than others.
Aaron Bruno
The world's pretty trippy. I just like to travel around and see what's out there.

Everybody has got their vibes - it could be mountain biking, it could be hiking, but for me, it's surfing and music. There's a lot of different things, but I think love gives us peace one way or another, and a calming effect on our soul, so I don't know exactly what love is to me, but I know I try my best to surround myself with that.

If you're waiting around for something to be handed to you or win the lottery, chances are nothing is ever going to go down, you know, so you got to make it happen on your own.

There's a bunch of songs that I call B-sides on the record that you could argue could maybe have some potential commercial success with another artist, but for me, they just felt really whack.
Aaron Bruno
You don't put out music unless you have a sense that people will maybe like what you're doing or you're standing for something artistically.

I've always found it pretty difficult to write a happy song. Since I was a kid, when I pick up my guitar it's been hard for me to write some sort of bubblegum lyrics. It's not really ever been my route.
Aaron Bruno
I like to write pop songs and the stuff I write is fairly poppy, so I thought maybe my lot in life was to write pop songs for people. It never felt right writing songs for other people to sing, though.
Aaron Bruno
I have a lot of questions and I don't have that many answers. So what better place to exercise those thoughts than the lyrics, I guess.
Aaron Bruno
I've had the same friends I've always had. I mean, I've lost a few over the years.
Aaron Bruno
I don't know that I can say what exactly love means to me because it would be hard to put that into perspective.
Aaron Bruno
In fact, on a side note, after the success of the first record, I got asked to write for some pop artists, as everybody does, and I did a couple songs for some of these massive stars and the review that I got back was, This artist likes the song but it's too POP-y for them. I was like, What do you mean, I thought I was writing for a pop star
Aaron Bruno
I never wanted to do music to get girls, right, to get popular, or anything like that. I really love music and I want to make it better the best I can. I can tell when something's real, or when something's put together. I can just feel it. So I'm my own worst critic and harshest critic and I just want to put honest music out there.
Aaron Bruno
Coming from heavy music too, it's really hard to have heavy music not sound too butthead-ish or jock-ish, and there's a fine line between Limp Bizkit and Nirvana - there's a fine line there, and it's terrifying.
Aaron Bruno
I ran away for a couple years just to prove I've hever been free.

There's a lot of different things, but I think love gives us peace one way or another, and a calming effect on our soul, so I don't know exactly what love is to me, but I know I try my best to surround myself with that. Whenever I can. It's hard sometimes.

Videos are tricky because stuff sounds amazing on paper and it seems like it's going to be this mystical experience and you're going to look back and go, Wow, that was magic. But more times than not, it doesn't end up that way, so I never know what I'm going to get.
Aaron Bruno
Let's say I'm at a party and I don't like the feeling I'm getting, I'll just leave. Why do I have to be there?
Aaron Bruno
I've always found it pretty difficult to write a happy song.
