Sometimes when I write lyrics there are images in them, usually on a quite simplistic level, like colors. But most often music comes first and then later I sit down with visual people and we chat about what we want to do. I don't look at myself as a visual artist. I make music. ↗

If I look at my old lyrics, they seem to be full of rage, but empty. There was an emptiness in my life. ↗

All I can do is read a book to stay awake, and it rips my life away, but it's a great escape. ↗
