"This track was the first time id written about my mental health struggles in such a direct, blunt, candid way. I can’t write when I'm numb and depressed, I think it all sounds like shit, but when I wrote this song I was just like… Ok I'm not gonna try write something that sounds beautiful, or deep, or cool, or good, I’m gonna write exactly how I feel in this state. I didn’t think I’d end up working on it and releasing it but here we are!!" - Mikaela Cougar
