I think, a lot of times when you meet someone, you feel like you need to appear like you’re not interested in them so that they’ll be more interested in you.

When the people we love stop paying attention, trust begins to slip away and hurt starts seeping in.

My songs have always been frustrating themes, relationships that I’ve had. And now that I’m in love, I expect it to be really happy, or at least there won’t be half as much anger as there was.

It has been hard for me to find it, but I have found love.
