Once you write and record a song, it becomes everyone else's song.
The first song I wrote was called "You" and it was a love song about somebody who didn't even exist. I remember them all because I used to always write terrible poetry. I keep all my notebooks.
I've never liked songs that are about writing, or struggling to write. Maybe it's because it's too relatable to me.
I started writing songs when I started learning guitar.
Sometimes I have something stuck in my head and that directs the rhyme that I'm writing with.
I try to write a lot and my process is kind of back and forth. I procrastinate a lot so when I do sit down to write, I'm pretty lazy at it. And it's such a frustrating thing sometimes - writing - when you don't do it all the time, you get that thing in your head that you have nothing to talk about and you can't write songs.
Every time I write a song it feels like it could be the last one I do, or it always feels like a fluke.
