Tape is covered in a viscoelastic material, meaning that it behaves both like a solid and a liquid. When you apply pressure to it, it flows like a liquid, finding its way into any tiny gaps in the surface it is being stuck to. Then, when you leave it alone, it turns back into a solid, allowing it to lock into those gaps like a piece of a jigsaw puzzle to hold itself in place.
