Bad Nights Lead To Better Days

I've Gotten To A Place Where I Still Love To Play And Sing, But I Don't Have Any Ego Agenda Left, Outside Of Just Wanting To Stay In A Creative Place And Play Music. I Much Prefer To Sing For Somebody Else, And To Somebody Else.

I'm Not The Cool Thing, And I'm Not Going To Be The Cool Thing For A Really Long Time, And It Isn't Like I'm Not The Cool Thing And I Sell 3,000,000 Records Every Time. I'm Not The Cool Thing, And I Barely Sell 150,000 Records, If That, Ever. So I'm Obviously Working Really Hard To Sustain Myself. I'm Actually A Target To Be Dropped, Because That's Just Not Enough Records For A Big Company.

I Like The Idea That Within The Structure Of The Song, Some Kind Of Built-in Improvisation Keeps Them Fragile And In Their Moment, So That I'm Not Projecting So Much, So That My Perception Of The Song Doesn't Interfere With What Its Real Body Is. Sometimes It's Like Telling A Story That I Heard In Passing, And I Don't Want It To Become Completely Mine.

I Quit Drinking Every Night, At 1:30 A.m.

Writing And Creating, Those Things Come To Me On Their Own. I Feel Like... You Sort Of Summon Them And It's Like Allowing The Universe To Enter Your Heart In An Entirely Different Way To What It Normally Does. It's Like Inviting That Energy Of The Universe To Enter Into Your Craft In A Way Where It Has A Meaning.
