External Combustion

You're right, I do write a lot. In some ways, staying home and not being able to tour was kind of normal for me. Because when I'm home, I'm very active with writing and I have a studio here. That didn't slow me down. I was regretful that we couldn't do the tour. But I think all of those dates are still sold and ready to go now. You know, some of the songs, I've noticed as I look back at them, I don't write about specific things necessarily. But as I look back at this album we just did, some of the lyrics seem to be indirectly about being isolated and trying to find a better world than you're in. [Laughs] So it might have been subliminal.
