Nothing Outside Of My Child Is Important

I Believe This Is Heaven To No One Else But Me.

If You Only Try To Please Others, You're Going To Resent Those People You're Trying To Please; The Ones Who Are Often Closest To You. If You Choose A Path That You Yourself Want To Take, Then You're Going To Be Much Kinder To The People In Your Life.

I Do Think Music And The Arts Are Imperative For Our Kids For Their Creative Learning And Their Emotional Education, Which Breeds Better Adults. I'm Doing What I Can To Try And Pick Up The Slack And I Applaud Anyone Who Tries To Give Back To Their Community.

I Sort Of Feel Like Music Saved My Life When I Was Young. This Is The One Thing That I Knew I Was Good At.

I Threw Bitter Tears At The Ocean, But All That Came Back Was The Tide.

Peace In The Struggle To Find Peace.. Comfort On The Way To Comfort. And If I Shed A Tear I Won't Cage It I Won't Fear Love. And If I Feel A Rage I Won't Deny It. (i Won't Fear Love.

I'm Not One To Sit And Wallow - I Would Rather Figure Out A Way Around So I Can Move Past It And Be At Peace With Things. I Don't Like Bad Feelings Gnawing Away At Me.

I Think Sometimes All You Need Is To Hear Someone Else Say The Same Thing That You're Going Through To Realize That You're Not Alone. I Try To Put Some Sense Of Hope Into The Songs, Into Whatever The Situation Is So That It's Not Just Dirt, Drudgery And A Life Of Misery.

'time After Time' Is One Of The Best Pop Songs Ever Written, In My Opinion. It's An Incredible, Beautiful, Timeless Song.

Cause I Rely On My Illusions, To Keep Me Warm At Night. I've Denied In My Capacity To Love, And I Am Willing To Give Up This Fight

Change And Growth Is So Painful. But It's So Necessary For Us To Evolve.

Change And Growth

I Was Raised With A Mother Who Told Me That I Wouldn't Succeed, That I Wasn't Good Enough. Even At The Pinnacle Of My Success, She'd Come To A Show, And There'd Be, Like, 10,000 People Screaming. And She'd Say, "i Just Don't Get It." I Think She Had So Little Faith In Herself And Her Abilities As A Parent That She Couldn't Imagine Any Offspring Of Hers Could Do So Well. And All That Did Was Drive Me To Push Back. If Someone Says, "you Can't Do This," I'm Like, "f-ck You! Oh, Yes I Can, And I Will."

I'm A Closet Backstreet Boys Fan. They're Very Sweet

All The Fear Has Left Me Now, I'm Not Frightened Anymore. It's My Heart That Pounds Beneath My Flesh, It's My Mouth That Pushes Out This Breath.

New Relationship

Deadlines Are Meant To Be Broken. And I Just Keep Breaking Them.

Broken Promises

I Kind Of Have A Happy Magnet. I Can't Stand Being Depressed, So I Work My Ass Off To Get Out Of It As Soon As Possible.

Being Depressed

In The Arms Of The Angel, Fly Away From Here....you Are Pulled From The Wreckage, Of Your Silent Reverie, You're In The Arms Of The Angel, May You Find Some Comfort Here.

It's Easier To Believe In This Sweet Madness, Oh This Glorious Sadness, That Brings Me To My Knees.

Music Gave Me A Sense That I Was Worthwhile And That I Had Something Of Value To Offer The World Even Though Everybody Was Telling Me That I Didnt.

The More We Take, The Less We Become.

If You Love Large, You've Got To Hurt Large. If You've Got A Lot Of Light, You've Probably Got An Equal Amount Of Darkness.

I Think Often Sadness Is A Great Place To Get Songs From.

You've Been Gone So Long From All That You Know. It's Been Shuffled Aside As You Bask In The Glow. All The Beauitful Strangers Who Whisper Your Name, Do They Fill Up The Emptiness? Larger That Life Is Your Fiction, In A Universe Made Upon One.

People's Ignorance Really Pisses Me Off. Stupidity Is When You Can't Help It -ignorance Is When You Choose Not To Understand Something.

I Don't Tend To Question Things That Much. If It Feels Right, I Go For It.

When I Say Music Saved Me, I Don't Say That Lightly.

The More We Take The Less We Become, The Fortune Of One Man Means Less For Some.

I Will Be The Answer, At The End Of The Line, I Will Be There For You, While You Take The Time, In The Burning Of Uncertainty, I Will Be Your Solid Ground, I Will Hold The Balance, If You Can't Look Down. If It Takes My Whole Life, I Won't Break, I Won't Bend, It Will All Be Worth It, Worth It In The End, Cause I Can Only Tell You What I Know, That I Need You In My Life, When The Stars Have All Gone Out, You'll Still Be Burning So Bright...

I Think I've Become A Much Better Singer And A Much Better Player. Years And Years Of Playing A Couple Of Hours Every Day Will Do That.

I'm Really Lucky That My Record Companies Have Been Patient With Me And Leave Me Alone And Give Me The Time To Make It Right In My Mind.

I'm A Great Mummy. I've Mapped Out All The Fun Spots In Every City.

Once There Was A Darkness, A Deep And Endless Night, You Gave Me Everything You Had And Oh, You Gave Me Light

Everybody Loves You When You're Easy, So Don't Disappoint Them.

Larger Than Life Is Your Fiction In A Universe Made Up Of One.

Larger Than Life

You're In The Arms Of The Angels; May You Find Some Comfort Here.

I Love [that] You Smile At Me, I Love The Way Your Hands Reach Out And Hold Me Near... I Believe This Is Heaven To No One Else But Me.

Falling In Love

Coming To Terms With The Fact That My Marriage Was A Failure Was Devastating And Very Difficult.

It's An Amazing Luxury To Say I'm 31 Years Old And I'm Gonna Take A Year Off. That's Pretty Amazing.

You Speak To Me In Riddles, You Speak To Me In Rhymes, My Body Aches To Breathe Your Breath, Your Word Keeps Me Alive.

I Have Fallen, I Have Sunk So Low. I Have Messed Up, Better I Should Know.

And Music Has Always Been Incredibly Cathartic For Me, Whether It's Writing My Own Stuff Or Singing Other People's Music; It's Very Freeing.

Happiness Is Like A Cloud, If You Stare At It Long Enough, It Evaporates.

I've Been So Busy I Haven't Had A Chance To Go Crazy. I Don't Party Like I Used To

I've Never Done Heroin, But I Totally Understood What Would Drive People To That Distraction-to Need That So Much.

I Was Very Awkward As A Kid. I Was A Square Trying To Fit Into A Circle And It Never Worked For Me. The Harder I Tried, The Harder I Fell. For Some Reason I Was A Real Target And I Got Beat Up And Called Names.

I Pull You From Your Tower, Take Away Your Pain. Show You All The Beauty You Possess, If You Only Let Yourself Believe.

When You Wake Up Everyday Please Don't Throw Your Dreams Away Hold Them Close To Your Heart 'cause We Are All A Part Of The Ordinary Miracle

Oh Darkness, I Feel Like Letting Go.

Your Love Is Better Than Chocolate. Better Than Anything Else That I've Tried.

Music Is Very Nebulous, And You Can Conjure Up A Lot Of Moods With Music. But Lyrics - They're A Lot More Tangible. They're Much More Specific. And You Want To Say Something Meaningful And Creative And Artistic And That Tells A Story And That Takes People Someplace Else.

I Will Rememeber You. Will You Remember Me? Don't Let Your Life Pass You By And Don't Forget All Your Memories.

Hold On...hold On To Yourself. This Is Going To Hurt Like Hell.

Your Love Is Just The Antidote When Nothing Else Can Cure Me.

I Want To Be Alone. Sympathies Wasted On My Hollow Shell. I Feel There's Nothing Left To Fight For. No Reason For A Cause.

Low Self Esteem

I Go Out On The Road For Much Longer Than I Probably Should And Lose More Of Myself Than I Should.

I'm So Afraid To Love You, But More Afraid To Lose. Clinging To A Past That Doesn't Let Me Chose.

Low Self Esteem

I'm An Eternal Optimist With A Small Degree Of Cynicism.

It's A Big Challenge For Me To Keep My Integrity And Some Of My Privacy Intact.

If I Cried Me A River Of All My Confessions, Would I Drown In My Shallow Regret?

I've Got To Live My Life The Way I Feel Is Right For Me. Might Not Be Right For You, But It's Right For Me.

Trying To Force Creativity Is Never Good.

Through This World I've Stumbled, So Many Times Betrayed, Trying To Find An Honest Word, To Find The Truth Enslaved.

I Spent A Lot Of Years On The Road, And What Happens Is You Find Out Who Your Real Friends Are And You Find Out Where Your Strengths And Weaknesses Lie In Communication. I've Had The Same Friends For 20 Years Now And I Can Count Them On One Hand.

We Are In An Age Of Technology Where We Sit In Our Little Cubicles And We Im Each Other And Skype Each Other And Never Connect As Human Beings.

We're Constantly Being Told What Other People Think We Are, And That's Why It Is So Important To Know Yourself.

I Was A Pretty Insecure Kid, Didn't Have A Lot Of Friends, And Was Picked On A Lot, And Music Gave Me Confidence.

My Love, You Know You Are My Best Friend . You Know That I'd Do Anything For You, And My Love, Let Nothing Come Between Us. My Love For You Is Strong And True.

I Think One Of The Most Important Things, That This Album Is For Me, And This Period In My Life, Is About Gratitude. About Recognizing All Of The Things, Daily, That I'm Grateful For, And There Are Many In My Life. I'm Just So Blessed, And I Try To Carry That With Me Every Day.

I've Heard Myself Referred To As A Quiet Superstar, And I Don't Quite Know What That Means.

I'm Not A Media Darling. I'm Not On The Cover Of All These Magazines. I Just Quietly Do My Thing.

I Was Trying To Uphold What I Thought Feminism Was As Best I Could By Supporting Women, By Trying To Create An Opportunity To Get Women To Get Together, Play Music Together And Celebrate The Fact That We Are Having Great Success Making Music On Our Own And Together.

I Like The Idea That We Build Up These Walls Or Rules Or Laws To Maintain Our Reality, And When They Fall Away, You're Left With A Whole Bunch Of Illusions.

Don't Let Your Life Pass You By, Weep Not For The Memories.

Deep Within I'm Shaken By The Violence Of Existing For Only You.

And It's Hard At The End Of The Day

The End Of The Day

Hardwork And Determination

I Don't Follow Any Organized Religion, But I Do Believe In The Idea Of God As A Verb - Being Love And Light. And That We Are Part Of Everything As Everything Is Part Of Us.

Theres Beauty Everywhere. There Are Amazing Things Happening Everywhere, You Just Have To Be Able To Open Your Eyes And Witness It. Some Days, Thats Harder Than Others.

Beauty Everywhere

I'm So Tired, But I Can't Sleep. Standing On The Edge Of Something Much Too Deep.

We Try To Create This Interesting Appearance To Make Ourselves Feel Better About Ourselves.

You Made My World Stand Still, And In That Stillness, There Was A Freedom I Never Felt Before.

I Play Piano Every Day.

Nature Is A Perfect Example Of The Harmony Between The Beautiful And The Brutal. You Turn Over A Pretty Rock And There Are Worms Writhing Underneath.

I Didn't Get Hugely Famous Really Quick. It Was A Slow, Gradual Process, So I Was Able To Sort Of Grow Into Myself And Figure Out Who I Was And What I Wanted Without The Glaring Spotlight On Me Telling Me Who I Was.

I Think A Lot Of Contemplation Happens In Bathtubs. It Does For Me. Nothing Like A Hot Bath To Ease The Tension And Think About What's Going To Happen Next.
