![]() So, I went out every night, and I played and I played and I played until I couldn’t walk one night, and that was it. And I just couldn’t cancel, because the thought of leaving 50,000 or 30,000 or 12,000 or 8,000 kids in the arena just broke my heart. So, everything hurts really bad, but I didn’t want to let them down. I was feeling very dizzy, I had a lot of vertigo I had pain, but, it’s like, fuck if I know what hurts the most, because I’ve been on tour for a year. Once I really realized what had been going on, and I realized how I was feeling, before on stage, I realized that it was the applause of the fans that really kept me going, because I would be ready to go onstage, and just be crying hysterically, like not understanding even, how I was feeling. When I was on tour, and my hip was breaking, I didn’t really know why, because I was smoking up a storm, making sure that I couldn’t feel a damn thing all day long.

I never choose my singles, so I didn't actually choose it.
