The moon is quite a show off given the chance. The stars make a sound when they shine so bright. Water so blue and so black.

There's war - there's always been war, as long as most of us have been alive. There have always been people being abused, there's always been horrible things in the world. Why are we outraged? We should just be quiet and figure it out, and work it out together.

For a moment this good time would never end You and me Just wasting time I was kissing you You were kissing me love From good day into a moonlight
Dave Matthews

I'll lean on you and you lean on me and we'll be okay.

Sometimes it's nice to be able to reflect on the music itself and then write lyrics that I feel anyone can relate to. It's not my dreaming tree that is dead. The feeling of a loss of hope is universal. There are moments that we've all felt a little bit of it, so I don't think it is something that is too hard to identify with.

So often we talk about saving the planet, but what we really mean is to save the planet the way it is, so we can live here. So that is can sustain us.

Yorke's lyrics make me want to give up. I could never in my wildest dreams find something as beautiful as they find for a single song - let alone album after album.

Would you like to play With the thought of a friend In a distant passing stage While you lie around With your hands up and out So resigned you will fall down.

Everyday should be a good day to die
Dave Matthews

Because one of the properties of music is to entertain and to, I don't mean this lightly, distract us from the things that pull us down. Music should be not only a source for political ideas but also a source of hope.
Dave Matthews

For me, in songwriting, I have a route I can take. Maybe there's some forks, I can go this way, this way. But I know those roads. I still have the experience behind me.
Dave Matthews
Image
Some might tell you there's no hope in hand Just because they feel hopeless But you don't have to be a thing like that You be a ship in a bottle set sail
Dave Matthews
Image
Why won't you run in the rain and play, let the tears splash all over you?
Dave Matthews

I'm from a very politically and socially conscious family. My mother always made a point of making us look at what was going on around us and take stock of our part in it.

I feel that I have worked my whole life to get to the point where I should have a good understanding of women.

When I step into the light My arms are open wide When I step into the light My eyes searching wildly

Because life is short but sweet for certain

I hope that just what I sing about and how I relate to my audience is as much of a political statement as I need to make.

I do still get shocked every once in a while when I catch my reflection when I'm walking past a glass building, but it's in my mind about getting older and finding out what I'm going to look like as it unfolds - or as it folds, depending on where the marks and scars land.

I've always been obsessed by visual art as I have been by music personally, but that doesn't mean anything professionally.

In many instances, we are much better at fixing our mistakes after we've made them. In some situations, it is easier to sweep things under the rug and forget about them.
