Your mouth was made to suck my kiss.
Just the kind of girl I liked – the weirdo in the bunch.
Once you’ve seen a solution to the disease that’s tearing you apart, relapsing is never fun.
It was like the Wizard of Oz had spoken, and what he said was too ludicrous to take seriously.
The sad thing is, people don’t want to believe that the person they’re in love with is out of his mind, drinking and using, so if you give them even half an excuse, they’re going to want to believe it.
It was because all we wanted was each other’s constant love and attention and for no one else to receive that love and attention, which is a selfish and difficult place to be in a relationship. We were emotionally retarded, and that was the best we could do at the time.
My work was done, so it was time to start digging my grave again.
I never really thought in terms of the concept of being a rock star – being around people like that just seemed like normal day-in-the-life stuff to me. Those were just the surroundings I grew up in.
We’ll have these people hang out with us while we’re doing our touring, and talk to them and let them speak their piece to the world.
I don’t even know what words to use to talk about the music industry anymore. But the business has changed a lot – the methods of releasing music.
We’ve just learned how to balance ourselves a little better so that we’re happier way more of the time than not, and, you know, being happy is a radical and desirable act if you ask me.
I know my dad is a big Internet freak, and he’s been known to be a Wikileaker.
When I was younger, I used to hate Germany. I hated the country, the people, the language, the culture, everything! But over the years I’ve grown to really appreciate the German people.
I like the idea of defying the convention of what it is to be in your 40s, or 50s, or 60s.
I’m not a true vegan.
Now I can look back and say I actually like the upbringing I had and my father was very attentive and a great educator.
We did that with people like Chris Rock, Woody Harrelson, and the environmentalist Julia Butterfly Hill.
She wasn’t about to go down that road herself, which was a testament to her spiritual awakening and her commitment to sanity. It was a real blessing that she didn’t follow me, because oftentimes, people go out together and one comes back and the other doesn’t. Or both of them never do.
She was probably the girl I loved the most of all my girlfriends, but also the toughest one to make things work out with. If I had put that much effort into any of my other relationships, I’d be married with five kids now.
Even as the words came out of my mouth, my heart was dying a million deaths.
