'Every song taught me something new about myself, ‘cause I was forced to analyze what I was going through and resolve it in some way. Usually the last line of the chorus is a summation of that discovery, it's kinda what I learnt in that lesson. So, through all of it I realized I learned so much more about myself and about life via music-whether I was creating it or listening to it, and for me, someone who talks really fast and rambles and slurs words and fragment ideas and run on sentences, one of the greatest things I’ve learnt is how to listen and not be afraid of silence or not always speak what I have in my head because when I learn to put that into songs, I learn how to convey those things so much more efficiently'.
