Writing original songs is much, much harder (I think) because you only have yourself to conjure up EVERY single moment a listener is going to hear.

It's a shot in the dark.

So many people are struggling to create happiness while their brain is inundated by noise.

My brain has a weird way of turning pressure into other things. I make a point to myself of shrugging it off - of going the other way and doing something for myself, wanting to do something better.

My brain a dandelion seed blown in the wind.
