Cover art for The Point of  It All lyrics by Amanda Palmer

This song could be written about me. I have severe mental issues and am highly creative. To stay alive I have to take meds that turn me into a zombie. To be uniquely creative, I have to be off my meds. I spend a lot of time staring at walls wishing I could create. I have friends but they have mostly given up on trying to get me to go out.... That which I live for is not enough to keep me alive. That which keeps me alive (drugs) stops me from doing what I live for....
