It's Just Hard To Have

The American Underground Punk Scene, Though, Is A Story Worth Remembering.

Every Song I Ever Wrote, I Wrote To Be Heard. So, If I Was Given A Choice That 50 Years From Now I Could Either Have A Dollar Or Knowing That Some Kid Was Listening To My Song, I'd Go With The Kid Listening To My Song.

It's So Interesting That Humanity Has To Be Defined By Emotional Strife Or Something. I Don't Buy Into That.

"straight Edge" Was A Song About My Life. There Was No Structure, No Premise As If I Was Forming A Club. There Were No Tenets. I Mean I Wrote A Song Called "straight Edge," I'll Take That, But The Song Was About My Life The Way I Wanted To Live It.

I Think About Dischord. There's Been A Pretty Consistent Notion That Dischord Have Been Some Sort Of "overlords" Of The Scene. Some People Have Felt 'they Are Too Cool For Us,' Or 'they Won't Put This Out,' Etc. All We're Doing Is Our Own Work, Our Own Thing. That's All We've Ever Done. Our Work.
