The Further I Get From The Things

My Whole Life I've Played Music For My Own Personal Enjoyment And The Idea Of It Becoming A Machine Or A Business Is Just Horrible.

I Lose Myself In Music Because I Can't Be Bothered Explaining What I Feel To Anyone Else Around Me.

When Punk Came Along, I Found My Generation's Music. I Grew Up Listening To The Beatles And The Rolling Stones And Pink Floyd, 'cause That Was What Got Played In The House. But When I First Saw The Stranglers, I Thought, 'this Is It.'

I'm In The Strange Position Of The World Drifting Away From Me, But You Know What? I'm Actually Quite Content With That. It Doesn't Bother Me In The Slightest. I Don't Feel Like, 'oh God, I'm Being Left Behind.'

True Repentance Has A Double Aspect. It Looks Upon Things Past With A Weeping Eye, And Upon The Future With A Watchful Eye.
