As a songwriter I hate this whole 'If it's a sad song it has to sound like a sad song thing.' And that goes all the way back to my days with the Format. I'm an insane narcissist so if I have to get something off my chest I'll get something off my chest.
The moment I have realized God sitting in the temple of every human body the moment I stand in reverence before every human being and see God in him - that moment I am free from bondage everything that binds vanishes and I am free.
