Roman Candle have released a new song titled “Can We Watch Something Happy.” You can find an official video for that track below:

Vocalist Piper Ferrari commented:

“‘Can We Watch Something Happy‘ is written from the perspective of my childhood self. I struggled with severe OCD growing up, which was intensified by being raised in a religious household. I wasn’t diagnosed until much later, so for most of my youth I didn’t understand what was happening — I just remember being scared all the time.

There was a constant cycle of praying for the intrusive thoughts to go away, eventually giving in to them, and then praying again for forgiveness. That’s where the repeated ‘one more time’ comes from. It wasn’t about depression or suicidality; it was about trying to survive this overwhelming fear of thoughts I didn’t want, and then feeling deep guilt because I believed even having those thoughts was a sin.”
