I write really scathing, angry stuff when I'm in a better mood, and then uplifting and happy stuff when I'm at the absolute bottom.

When you're No. 1 or No. 300, you still get to play and write the songs.

I write most of my songs when I'm in a bad mood.

It's really funny - when I'm depressed or I'm having a hard time, I'll write really fun stuff. And then when I'm really happy, I write really depressing stuff.

I write what I don't know. It's way more interesting.

I write - and then I write some more.
