being-single being-alone long
I really enjoy being single again. I spent a lot of time in a relationship and the nearer we came to the end, the more difficult it got. You don't see things clearly as long as you're still involved.
talking egomaniacs drink
It's much better when I go out with my mates and we stop talking about me like I'm some sort of egomaniac. It's great when we can just have a drink.
interesting singing want
I always want to bring emotion across in a straightforward way. I don't want to get histrionic when I'm singing. For me that's just not interesting; it goes too far down one road.
lonely want so-lonely
I'm so lonely I don't even want to be with myself anymore.
people decision goes-on
It's great to go on your own and discover new things just for yourself, to meet new people and all that. If you're all on your own, then there is nobody there to guide you and you have to make all the decisions for yourself. It's quite liberating in a way.
mean thinking manage
Life for rent means that my life isn't really my own, I only rented it for a while, but if I don't manage to buy it, to own it, then nothing of what I think is mine is really mine.
opposites blame sometimes
The older you get, the more you realize you're drifting toward a direction, and sometimes your significant other drifts into an opposite direction. You can't blame anybody for it.
ocean home gone
Why don't I watch the ocean?My lover's gone.No earthly ships will ever bring him home againbring him home again...
mean shopping my-boyfriend
I get up, go shopping, clean the flat, cook my boyfriend's dinner. It's great selling records, but it doesn't mean you have to turn into a freak.
musical would-be lucky
I feel really lucky to have found musical success before I'm 30, to be doing absolutely what I want to do. I would be quite happy if I died tomorrow.
hiding-something hiding
Inside everybody's hiding something.
writing feels
I write about the things I feel strongly about.
brain sides different
It's actually amazing because you go so far into another side of your brain when you're studying something completely different, and I loved it.
heart long sticks
I haven't ever really found a place that I call homeI never stick around quite long enough to make itI apologize that once again I'm not in loveBut it's not as if I mindthat your heart ain't exactly breaking.
