I write a lot of songs about love and I think that’s because to me love seems like this huge complicated thing. But it seems like every once in a while, two people get it figured out, two people get it right. And so I think the rest of us, we walk around daydreaming about what that might be like. To find that one great love, where all of a sudden everything that seemed to be so complicated, became simple. And everything that used to seem so wrong all of a sudden seemed right because you were with the person who made you feel fearless.
Oh I don’t wanna grow up, wish I’d never grown up It could still be simple.
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple.
Sometimes bravery is as simple as following your gut.
There are so many emotions that you're feeling, you can get stifled by them if you're feeling them all at once. What I try to do is take one moment - one simple, simple feeling - and expand it into three-and-a-half minutes.
Love is one of those things that should be so simple. You don't need to think about it and over analyze it when it's good.
My definition of country music is really pretty simple. It's when someone sings about their life and what they know, from an authentic place.
I felt like my favorite writers have almost musical hooks in their work, whether it's poetry or a hook at the end of a chapter that makes you want to read the next one. And I think that my favorite writers definitely have something musical about what they do, in saying something so relatable and universal and so simple.
People say that about me, that I apparently buy houses near every boy I like - that's a thing that I apparently do. If I like you I will apparently buy up the real-estate market just to freak you out so you leave me.
I don't think you should wait. I think you should speak now.
Vanity can apply to both insecurity and egotism. So I distance myself, because I feel everything.
I think I am smart unless I am really, really in love, and then I am ridiculously stupid.
For me, 'risky' is revealing what really happened in my life through music. Risky is writing confessional songs and telling the true story about a person with enough details so everyone knows who that person is.
I didn't always have 14,000 people wanting to hang out with me on a Saturday night.
