I try to have thick skin, but every once in a while I read something that someone says about me, and it's so slanderous and moralistic and it has nothing to do with my music.
I think that life is a paradox and you have to embrace that in your work and your belief systems.... You can't be a literalist, and that's the trouble that people always find themselves in. That's why people always hit a wall with any of my stuff, because you can't take it literally.
I don't think about my old stuff. I just move forward.
I think passive beauties have their place in the world. It's hard for me to relate to that.
It's not my nature to just kick back.
All you need is your own imagination. So use it that's what it's for.
Say hello to your life.
Life and love inspire me. I think reinventing yourself is vital to your survival as an artist and a human being. I know it’s cliché to say about me at this point, but it’s true. My curiosity definitely is the driving force in my life and career. When you stop learning, engaging and growing, you’re dead.
Set your goals high and go far. Don't put off tomorrow what you can do today.
A fire lit under my ass? Yeah, that's true. No time to waste.
Some girls they like candy and others they like to grind. I'll settle for the back of your hand somewhere on my behind.
Bad girl, drunk by six, kissing someone else's lips. Smoked to many cigarettes today, I'm not happy when I act this way.
I must confess that I am usually drawn to sadness, and loneliness has never been a stranger to me. But love tried to welcome me, but my soul drew back, guilty of lust and sin.
Believing in yourself and being willing to do anything, to walk through the fire, to do what it is that you want to do. Getting out of that car accident covered with blood to play the gig . . . I mean, that's me. That's just me.
