I love songs because by nature they are concise; they sum up. I try to use as few words as possible. It's usually funnier that way, anyway.
I wouldn't claim to know what another person is thinking. I can imagine it, but it's my interpretation, and I try to make that clear. It's my vision of what I think their life is. I don't think there are empirical truths in that regard.
I just like writing lyrics. I find a little satisfaction in performing live, making records. But primarily, I just try to write every day.
Try to keep your mind. Try not to eat bad, try not to wake up with too bad of a hangover.
I'm not trying to write for the masses. I don't care.
I think I try to do a lot of things to weed out casual fans.
If it's possible to have an enemy without making it personal or moral, then that's what I'm trying to do.
