about

Around two years after the death of my grandfather, my depression and anxiety got to a state where I hated myself most every day due to a variety of factors. This is a song about going to therapy, and although it's hard and very frightening at the beginning, the road to recovery is worth it.

lyrics

When I called to get help, I cried over the phone. It was one of the most difficult things I’ve ever done. Then I walked into the clinic, despite getting lost on the way. I almost turned my car around. But I pushed on through, and I talked ‘til my lips were blue, and I re-remembered all the hard shit from my life. She asked if I wanted to end my life, and I said yes, but I still wanted to be alive.

It was a lot of work, and took a lot of time and medicine to get my brain on track. I’m still anxious every day, and it’s hard to make some friends, but I’m not depressed and I haven’t been in some time.

What a wonder it is to be. A somewhat functioning human being. I can only get better from here. But I still have so much to fear.

Like dying alone, and failing from home. With everything I ever want to do. But I’ll still try, like when I called and cried. Because no matter what. I gotta live. My life until. I'm dead and am a corpse in the ground.

Tape Girl’s got all the flare of a Sonic Adventure 2 internet glitter gif and you can feel it every time you listen to this. It feels like drinking a really sparkly soda in the middle of the summer. It’s just got so much of what I love about not just ska or even music but art as a whole! Like any hero, Tape Girl is here at just the right time. Let’s go! anj capizzi
