sports emotional race
I don't like the human race in general. We are the only species who hunt for sport, who kill due to emotional need.
stress band kind
One of the things I've always personally tried to stress with this band was to have some kind of visual aspect and to be consistent with it - like, not to change.
running trying input
I used to try to run five miles every other day, which I worked up to and I was doing it, but I was subjected to my own thoughts for forty minutes without any sensory input, and I couldn't stand what I thought.
fighting talking drug
There's a lot of things that go on when you're on tour that cannot be controlled. I'm not even talking about myself, but of course there's sexual activity and drugs, fighting and language; it is certainly not a place to raise a family
song writing wrists
Instead of slashing my wrists, I just write a bunch of really crummy songs.
mother moving iceland
If I wasn't bound to Brooklyn, due to my own personal reasons like taking care of my mother and the fact that this is where the band is based, I would probably move to Iceland.
space southern intimate
It seems to be that southern Europeans are just more intimate socially, whereas I like a lot of personal space - like, a mile from the nearest person is fine for me.
mother tired people
My mother always told me if I really didn't wan to do something, if I was really tired, but if I had helped someone and I really went out of my way for them but I asked nothing for it, that I should donate my energy to the souls in purgatory-meaning that to give my goodness to those who are trapped. This is purgatory/limbo. This is a very Catholic thing that very few people really understand.
feelings
Yes, there are times when I get extremely depressed and how I sublimate those feelings is through music.
pain suffering earth
Have faith that when bad things happen to you, I belief in an after life, it is better to suffer here on Earth than what awaits you. That is why I pray for pain, and I get it. I do.
people sometimes social
I just like being a social experiment sometimes. I really should not be allowed in public. But I just go out into the public just to see people's reaction.
inspirational softball hate
I like to put on hardcore when I have to clean my apartment, which I hate to do, but it's motivational. I like old heavy metal when I'm outside working on my car. Music has definite functions for me.
people pussy
Some people say I'm a pussy. I say, you are what you eat.
hate race humans
I hate the human race. Of course, therefore, I hate myself the most, because I am the least of the human race.
