I'm only this far, and only tomorrow leads my way.
Dave Matthews

I see you young and soft oh little baby Little feet, little hands, little baby One year of crying and the words creep up inside Creep into your mind So much to say

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.

South Africa gives me a perspective of what's real and what's not real. So I go back to South Africa to both lose myself and gain awareness of myself. Every time I go back, it doesn't take long for me to get caught into a very different thing. A very different sense of myself.

Being able to scream at the top of my lungs in front of people is very therapeutic. It is a great gift for me to be able to do that.

Always walk where you like your steps.
Dave Matthews
Image
I find sometimes it's easy to be myself, sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else.
Dave Matthews
Image
In so many areas of life, I'm a spaz and incompetent.
Dave Matthews
Image
I think I am a very kind person. I think I'm joyful, but I could be kinder and I could be more joyful. I do believe peace is a state of grace, and not the absence of violence.

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.
Dave Matthews
Image
We have to do much more than believe if we really want to change things.
Dave Matthews
Image
What I want is what I've not got, but what I need is all around me.
Dave Matthews
Image
I was just wondering if you'd come along to hold up my head when my head won't hold on.

We look to our leaders once we elect them to either lead us in the right direction or at least not crush us.
