Some people say I'm a pussy. I say, you are what you eat.

It's bad poetry executed by people that can't sing. That's my definition of Rap.

So I don't cry anymore, I just beat people up. It's a lot more fun.
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.

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.

When I wrote songs like 'Everyone I Love is Dead,' I never thought about how I was going to execute them live.

If they weren't laughing with me, okay; if they want to laugh at me it's better than nothing.

If we're going to be dumped into, say, goth metal or something like that, I really don't mind being called that.
