原文及翻译

Songwriting is a direct line of communication with the truth. In song, you can say things you can't say out loud to anybody else—not your friends, not your therapist, not your mom. When I'm feeling anything intensely, I know it's time for me to write a song. I don't hide from my emotions; I dive into them. You can write a song and you can't tell the truth, but your song will suck. 

歌曲创作是与真相直接沟通的渠道。在歌曲中，你可以说出那些不能大声对别人说的话——不是你的朋友，不是你的治疗师，不是你的妈妈。当我有强烈的感觉时，我知道是时候写一首歌了。我不会躲避我的情绪；我会沉浸在其中。你可以写一首歌，但你不能说实话，但你的歌会很糟糕。

So, if you would like to write a good song, you have to be honest. You have to sit with yourself and let your truth come. Songwriting teaches you that all emotions are valid, deserving of curiosity, and deserving of a voice. Songwriting has been my therapist, my best friend, my lover, my drinking buddy, and my higher power. And I don't claim to be an expert on much, but I've experienced over and over and over how you can create art out of emotion, and through that process, not only heal yourself but help heal others. 

所以，如果你想写一首好歌，你必须诚实。你必须坐下来，让你的真相浮现出来。歌曲创作教会你，所有的情绪都是有效的，值得好奇，值得发声。歌曲创作是我的治疗师、我最好的朋友、我的爱人、我的酒友和我更高的力量。我并不声称自己是很多方面的专家，但我一次又一次地体验了如何用情感创造艺术，通过这个过程，不仅可以治愈自己，还可以帮助治愈他人。

And I believe there's an artist in every single one of us. Creation is just exploring; it's becoming childlike, it's not judging yourself. Dive into it, explore it. And I want to remind you that whether or not you are free, you are entitled to your truth. Find your medium, whatever speaks to you, and let your truth come.

我相信我们每个人心中都有一位艺术家。创作就是探索；它变得像孩子一样，而不是评判自己。深入其中，探索它。我想提醒你，无论你是否自由，你都有权利追求你的真理。找到你的媒介，无论什么能与你对话，让你的真理降临。
