"Hating the headlines and the weather and feeling like... Bowie's gone, and Prince is gone, and George Michael's gone, and what's left? I don't want to be alone in my house with Twitter and it's all so fucked. Let's just try and convince ourselves there's a perfect place we can go to, even just for an evening"

Liability (reprise)

Writer in the Dark
"It's not a historical document. It's not a police record. It's not journalism. I didn't go to journalism school, I'm a writer. It's about what I felt and sometimes you can feel an element of guilt or 'oh god, I shouldn't have immortalised that person', but the song is my way of saying 'it's what I've always been. It's what I was when you met me. It's what I will continue to be after you leave. That's exactly what was going to happen when you kissed a writer in the dark.'"

Sober II (Melodrama)
"I felt more aware of my age than I ever have making a record. I was in these moments of just being gripped by an emotion and I was like 'I'm feeling this because I'm 20 and everything's fucked-up inside my brain. I'm actually like rewiring to become an adult. All this is insane!'"
