There are lots of things I sing about where people wonder if I'm being a too little 'open book'. But I've always written that way and I think people who know me and are in my life know that and they've come to appreciate it's the way I sing and the way I make music. To me it's an unbelievable feeling to have someone tell you that a song has helped them through their tragedies. But at the end of the day I'm still left with this sense of hopelessness in myself. Are the next songs I write about going to help somebody and should it matter if they do or not?
[on the unpleasantness of Twitter] It's just disgusting, it really is. I think that's going to be the end of the world, really. We're just going to become one giant clicking negative comment.
