I write songs about stuff that I can't really get past personally - and then I write a song about it and I feel better.
I don't mean this to sound cliche, but it's really about the work for me. I like to keep working on things.
I don't know why I write really depressing songs. I'm a kind of melancholy guy, I suppose. But I figure I'm about normal.
I write songs for people who drive in cars. I really do.
There are people who can sit down and write a song about any given subject, and they can do it really, really well.
I guess what people forget sometimes is that when I write songs, I write them sometimes in about 20 minutes.
I don't read much of what I write because I worry about unintentionally borrowing something.
A lot of times, I walk down the street and listen to people argue, and then I write a song about it.
I write a lot of my music, but not all of it. I have always subscribed to the 'best song wins' theory when making an album.
