我曾经认为我有野心……但现在我不太确定。这可能只是不满。他们容易混淆。
The heart may think it knows better: the senses know that absence blots people out. We really have no absent friends.
心可能认为自己知道得更多:感觉知道,缺席会让人沮丧。我们真的没有缺席的朋友。
Some broad themes brought me where I am today. At a very young age, my hobby became thinking and finding connections.
一些宽泛的主题将我带到了今天的位置。在我很小的时候,我的爱好就变成了思考和寻找联系。

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
My dog was with me all the time. I talked to my dog. She was my best buddy. I shared all my secrets with her, but I don't think I every really tried jokes out with the dog.
我的狗一直和我在一起。我和我的狗说话。她是我最好的朋友。我和她分享了我所有的秘密,但我不认为我真的试着和狗开玩笑。
I think for new artists the hardest thing is putting the face with a name. People maybe heard our song on the radio or something but until they get several impressions of who you are - from whatever it is, whether TV or a live show, I feel like they don't quite connect the dots.
我认为对于新艺术家来说,最难的事情就是给脸起个名字。人们可能在收音机或其他什么地方听到过我们的歌,但直到他们对你有了一些印象——不管是电视还是现场表演,我感觉他们并没有把这些点联系起来。

I don't think I could be terribly demanding even if I wanted to be.
我想即使我想要,我也不会要求太高。
