“Support music every day because there isn’t a day music won’t be there for you!”

“I believe music is a place everyone of us can go to. I don’t care who you are, where you were born, what you do with your life. Everyone can come here in music and be equal.”

“I’m in a band. I don’t go to church every Sunday. I love punk rock music. Sometimes I use swear words a lot. I respect and admire gay men and women. I’m obsessed with horror films. I know what shame feels like. And guess what old man? Jesus is still my Savior.”

“Everybody live like it's the last day you will ever see.”

“That was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love that does not exist. but darling, You are the only exception”

“sometimes you get run down. sometimes life throws dirt in your eyes and it stings and you can't see for a few minutes. even after you get it out your eyes are all red and your vision is shitty... but eventually, whether through tears or maybe just time... you start to see even clearer than before. life is not always good. which is why music exists. why i believe God exists. and why there's always a pint of coconut milk ice cream in my freezer.”

“So one day he found her cryingCoiled up on the dirty groundHer prince finally came to save her& the rest you can figure outBut it was a trick& the clock struck twelveWell make sure to build your home brick by boring brickor the wolf's gonna blow it downKeep your feet on the groundWhen your head's in the clouds”
