wine heart thinking
A good wine has many qualities I think. If drunk moderately, it is healthy and good for your heart.
song play guitar
That was the reasoning behind learning to play bass, and then after that it was more like it was neat to play songs together - for me to play bass and for him to play guitar
book people stuff
I read true crime books, and I read when people do case studies of stuff. I'm into books like that. Case studies or forensics or murder - all that good stuff.
believe loving-god yeah
I believe in a supreme being, yeah. But He's an all-loving God.
blood parent catholic
I was born and raised Catholic, so it's in my blood. I don't go to church... I was born and raised Catholic, which is about the extent of my religion. My parents made one request: that I have my first Holy Communion.
book thinking people
I read a book recently by a psychiatrist who was able to interview a few serial killers and she had a thesis on how you could figure these people out. And she thinks that there are things that could tell you whether someone has the potential to do that.
europe giving firsts
Oh yeah, our first tour in Europe they wouldn't give me the time off from work.
song mean remember
After that I didn't listen to music as much because '70s music just wasn't... I remember all the songs, but it wasn't because I was into them, you know what I mean?
writing yeah
I just don't write musically, but lyrically, yeah I write.
fortune
Fortune is either with you or it's not.
song book people
People are not in good shape to where they have to question their own belief system because of a book or a story somebody wrote, or a SLAYER song.
thinking band next
Yeah, yeah I think that's one of the biggest misconceptions towards the band. The biggest one is that we're Satan worshippers, but next to that just the fact that we're normal
writing
I write, I write, I always write.
stuff gone god-love
Sometimes when I've gone out and murdered somebody I go and confess and stuff. And then God loves me again.
