Music Is My Thing. It's My Thing;

Some People Want To Go Forever, I Just Want To Burn Off Hard And Bright.

I've Never Been To Vegas, But I've Gambled All My Life.

I Was A Nervous Young Man. I Wanted To Do So Many Things. And I Was So Enthusiastic And Earnestly In Love With So Many Things That I Tried Too Hard. I Tried Really, Really Hard. And I Made A Lot Of Mistakes. I Was Afraid Of A Lot Of Stuff. And I Kind Of Feel Bad For That Person I Was.

Not To Discount My Music, But I'm Always Suspicious Of The Music That I Make On Some Level, As To How Valid It Is. Or Maybe Not "valid," But How Important.

I No Longer Know The Author Of This Book, For Simply Stopping Long Enough And Writing It Down Was Where I Changed From A Boy With His Eyes Squeezed Shut To A Man With His Eyes Wide Open So That The Sunlight Might Reach My Heart Despite All That Darkness.
