I have to remember for every kid saying something awful, there's a kid saying something great.

When I was in high school, I was a bad kid and a good student.

I was obsessed with learning about social behaviors. I remember explaining to my mom that kids on my soccer team were fighting because of dyads and triads.

Every time I got to play a show, even if it's already sold out, I'm so scared no one's going to come.

My mom is awesome. She's really young. My mom is 40, and she raised me listening to Nirvana and Courtney Love and Coldplay, Gin Blossoms, The Cranberries, and stuff. Like, my early, early memories are of being a little kid running around in floral skirts and Doc Martens when I was, like, three.

Even if you can't relate to what I'm singing, I hope you can believe in it and see it as something that it is real.
