  • It's funny, you go out and you get these interviews...

  • and a lot of questions are the same, and the one I get all the time is:

  • "You know, Rob, everything’s doing well, your band's doing great...

  • your songs are doing wonderful and you're married now...

  • and you seem really happy, I talk to you and you seem a happy guy.

  • Why is your album so damn depressing all the time?"

  • And I don't know. It's like, 'cause you're writing, and as a writer...

  • it's supposed to represent the best and the worst of you...

  • at the same time, and if you do it right and use it in the right way...

  • then you can take all the depressing stuff, get it out and put it down...

  • have a place for it, and then you can be happy most of the time.

  • You can just kind go on with the rest of your life.

  • 'Cause if you're happy... I'm not gonna write if I'm happy...

  • I'm gonna be happy. I'm only writing if I'm depressed about something.

  • I don't know. This is a song called "You Won't Be Mine".

  • Take your head around the world

  • See what you get

  • From your mind

  • Write your soul down word forward

  • See who's your friend

  • And who Is kind

  • And it's almost like a disease

  • And I know soon you will be

  • Over the lies, you'll be strong

  • You'll be rich, In love and you will carry on

  • But no

  • Oh no

  • No, you won't be mine

  • Take your straight line for a curve

  • And make it stretch

  • The same old line

  • And try to find If it was worth

  • What you spent

  • Why you're guilty for the way you're feeling now

  • It's almost like being free

  • And I know soon you will be

  • Over the lies, you'll be strong

  • You'll be rich, In love and you will carry on

  • But no

  • Oh no

  • No, you won't be mine

  • Take yourself out to the curb

  • And sit and wait

  • A fool for life

  • And it's almost like a disease

  • And I know soon you will be

  • You'll be over the lies, you'll be strong

  • You'll be rich, In love and you will carry on

  • But no, no

  • Oh no, oh no you won't

  • Won't be mine

  • Thank you.

  • Thank you very much.

It's funny, you go out and you get these interviews...
