Once I found the permission to write for myself, I finally began to process grief, and that's part of the background of this song. Like so many of the tunes on these records in this series, it's a song about masking. And being ashamed of who I really was and what I really wanted to do.
Again, it's a song about masking very directly. For some reason it was really important to me that I was able to effectively sell the lie that I was OK. I felt like a lot depended on it.
"It's frequently called the happy hormone and in recent years I've been on"
