More quotes by Aaron Bruno
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.

When I cruise around, I can't help but study people's faces and emotions and wonder why they're feeling the way they are.
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 was in a hardcore band that had no melody, no chance of finding any success, and I was just trying to figure out what the hell I was going to do with my life. And that came out and changed my life forever - on an artistic level, and a lyrical level, for sure.
Aaron Bruno
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.

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
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.

I find that a lot of times when family members get bronchitis or the flu or something like that, I'll kind of skate through and be really lucky and not get that sick.
Aaron Bruno
I can tell when something's real, or when something's put together. I can just feel it.
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
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.
