“When you watch a film or you read a book and there's a character that you identify with, you most of the time identify with them because they're targeting something in you that feels that you've been there that's why we relate to characters and so when I was reading you know Rebecca by Daphne de Maurier and I was thinking um wow her husband just tolerates her. She's doing all these things and she's trying so hard and she's trying to impress him and he's just tolerating her the whole time. There was a part of me that was you know relating to that because at some point in my life I felt that way and so I ended up writing this song "tolerate it" that's all about sort of truth trying to love someone who's ambivalent.”
