I like to think I'm a night person, because that's my job, but now I'm a father of three. I'm trying to become more of a morning person. I don't know if it will last. I have two choices, right? Either I'm bitter about getting up early, or I start drinking wine earlier and get to bed.

I've never been much of a craftsman, in an educated way. But I think just the experience of writing makes the avenues I follow a little more efficient in some ways. At the same time, when you're young, you're a little more fearless, and there's less of an internal critic.

We spend a lot of time bickering at great cost, and very little time actually coming up with solutions. And I think we misuse our ambition for our own gains and rarely for the betterment of ourselves, and people around us and our environment. And I think that's sort of pathetic and desperate.

I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.

I was just wondering if you'd come along to hold up my head when my head won't hold on.

Every day things change, but basically they stay the same.

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

The melodies are always the most important part to me. I am pulled more to the groove than the chord progression. After you find the groove, you find the most simple chord progressions and then sit inside that groove.

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

I find sometimes it's easy to be myself, sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else.

Look, Here are we, On this starry night staring into space, And I must say, I feel as small as dust, Lying down here...

I use God in my songs a lot but I don't have a relationship. I don't know what that means.

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.
