about writing

A man writes because he is tormented

because he doubts. 

He needs to constantly prove to himself and the others 

that he's worth something. 

And if I know for sure that I'm a genius? Why write then? 

What the hell for?

song-writing

To write a song that is remembered and taken to heart is a connection, 

a touching of bases. A thread that runs through all of us. 

A stab to the heart. 

Sometimes I think song-writing is about tightening the heartstrings 

as much as possible without bringing on 

a heart attack.
