Explaining Quotes

This is one of those times when explaining a feeling cannot measure up to actually having the feeling Picture Quote #1

I don’t actually like explaining the meanings of my songs, because I think people can take away more from it if they use their imagination Picture Quote #1

In the songs I can still be really really direct but in interviews when I’m explaining my songs I shouldn’t be so direct about who they’re about Picture Quote #1

The hardest thing to write was explaining what anxiety feels like. Every time I’d try to really write about what it feels like to have an anxiety attack, I would actually have an anxiety attack. It was good material but so incredibly uncomfortable Picture Quote #1

A writer is not interested in explaining reality, he’s only interested in capturing it Picture Quote #1

I was reminding myself of the one basic rule for experts on females: confine yourself absolutely to explaining why she did what she has already done because that will save the trouble of explaining why she didn’t do what you said she would Picture Quote #1

Your anatomy is a mystery that nobody bothers explaining to us. Even when we think we have mastered one woman’s body, every body is different Picture Quote #1
