I envy songwriters like this. There’s no bullshit, there are no pretentious layers of intrigue, there’s no trying too hard as far as I’m concerned. This is just what beauty is about. Horrible, agonizing Beauty.

The dreams I’ve been having lately torture me. There’s always a point where everything is so real, and we’re talking, and I don’t doubt a second of it. Then I realize that we’re talking and we’re together… and I want more than anything to make this the truth. I don’t want these dreams; I want nothing but these dreams.

Pain is what tells you it mattered. It tells you: This is important, no matter what, never doubt that. The most beautiful things I’ve ever seen were the things that I knew would one day be gone.
