With “Dishes,” I tried to write a love song, I tried to write a happy song. About a third of the way into writing—or maybe earlier than that—the train left the station and it became another sad song. I only write sad songs, apparently. Maybe one day I’ll write a happy song. I’m a happy person, but I feel like it’s a way to kind of write in your journal and you decide you’re going to read your journal to a lot of people. “Dishes” definitely was attempting to write a kind of love song, and in classic Bella fashion it turned into another sad one. but I think “Dishes” is still a sweet song.
