I've always done whatever I want and always been exactly who I am.
In the public eye, girls and women with strong perspectives are hated. If you're a girl with an opinion, people just hate you. There are still people who are afraid of successful women, and that's so lame.
There are alway going to be bad things. But you can write it down and make a song out of it.
In real life, I'm a really smiley person. I smile when I talk and I laugh.
I hate smiling. It makes me feel weak and powerless and small. I've always been like that; I don't smile in any pictures.
I really love Linkin Park, and I loved Chester Bennington, and it is horrible what happened to him. I grew up listening to him because my dad would make these mixtapes with a lot of different artists - Linkin Park, Avril Lavigne, The Beatles, Sarah McLachlan, I just really loved Linkin Park, and their production is really sick.
Words are more powerful than some noises. Noises won't last long. Lyrics are so important, and people don't realise that.
When I do have free time, I spend it with friends, or I spend it at home writing or making something.
It's rare for anyone to value the opinions of a teenage girl.
If I'm in a bad mood, or if I'm uncomfortable, it's probably what I'm wearing that's making me feel that way.
I like to be in control of how I look and how I feel and how I act.
I feel like I might be a designer or stylist - or a director because I have always been super interested in cameras and editing.
Time is kind of an amazing thing because you can do so much with it. I think people underestimate time... I don't want to just sit on my phone for hours.
It's really fun to put yourself into a character - into shoes you wouldn't normally be in.
I'm a really particular person. I want it my way.
I go through a lot of depression, and I know other people do, too, but I have an outlet that so many people don't. If you have that inside of you and can't get it out, what do you do?
I always wanted to be a Vine star. I wasn't, thank God.
I'm gonna make what I want to make, and other people are gonna like what they're gonna like. It doesn't really matter.
You can write a song about being in love with someone, but you don't have to be in love with anyone.
I don't know how to function without music. When I'm not making it, I'm listening to it. It gives me courage and takes care of my mind.
