I Want To Be Like

I Spend A Lot Of Time Trying To Not Do Anything Bad To Anyone, But You Can't Live Your Life And Not Hurt People.

I Really, Really Enjoy Fitting Words Together - But I Only Enjoy It When It's Easy, When It Sort Of Rolls Along By Itself. I Never Erase Anything [and] I Hardly Ever Write Anything Down... The Song Will Be Finished Before I Write It Down... I Won't Write A Song Unless It Serves Me In Some Way, Unless I Feel I Have To Write The Song To Make Myself Feel Better. If You're Not Overflowing With Something, There's Nothing To Give.

I Keep Living This Day Like The Next Will Never Come.

I Was Never Somebody Who Grew Up Going, 'i Really Want To Be A Singer In A Band,' And I Never Had Any Ambition Toward Anything, Really.

I Volunteered At Ucla's Occupational Therapy Ward, Where There Are Lots Of Kids With Autism And Emotional Problems. I Just Wanted To Prove To Myself That I Could Not Break Down And Cry At Everything, And That I Could Just Help Somebody Else. The One Thing I Really Remember Was That When We Would Take Them Out Of The Hospital For A Walk Around Campus, They Would Freak Out The Most When We Were Waiting For The Elevator. I Remember The Guy At The Elevator Said To Himself, "transitions Are The Hardest." And I Said To Myself, "transitions Are Always The Hardest."
