It's not my way to talk about my feelings. They're impudent to myself, so it wouldn't make any sense if I tried to explain them to anyone else. I've never been to therapy - not interested in it.

Usually there's no specific reason for loneliness - it's a broad feeling.
feelings music-is
Music is the marriage of the feelings of the living to the wisdom of the dead.
writing feelings mind
Even if I'm writing music, it's with a lyric in mind, to communicate some kind of feeling.
response separate song
Sometimes I feel like I finish a song, and there's another song that I have to write in response to that song. Each is like its own separate feeling, its own separate universe.
people
A lot of people don't know what it's like to actually be hungry. I do. I've also slept on the streets.
I just write songs whenever I feel like it, whenever they come to me.

A lot of religious texts make for good reading. That's why they hold up.
song teacher writing
People take things a little too personal. I write these songs, and they're experiments with thoughts. That's it. I'm not a teacher.
