We are all made of air There's stars in my eyes and there's sun in my hair And I'm runnin' away, it makes me feel better
Zooey Deschanel
I started out doing musicals.
Zooey Deschanel
I'm into sincerity in music and sincerity in art. If it doesn't feel true, I don't want to do it. Things that are too dramatic scare me. I think that's why I don't always fit into the world of performing arts.
