[Verse 1]
I keep my worries to myself
But it's alright
I don't like to bother no one else
But late at night
When I think about everything that's happened
In the dark and my mind
Keeps telling me I'm gonna fall apart
I keep my worries to myself
[Verse 2]
I put so much pressure on myself
But it's alright
I close my eyes and hold my breath
But late at night
My anxiety never seems to wanna go away
Back again in the morning
When I wake up every day
I close my eyes and hold my breath
[Chorus 1]
I'll be okay, it's fine
I'll be alright
I do this all the time
Stop overthinking
Don't run away from all my problems
Everything will be alright
Okay, it's fine
I'm always by my side
[Post-Chorus]
Na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na
[Verse 3]
Don't keep your worries to yourself
It's alright
Try asking someone else for help
And you'll be fine
There'll be times in your life
When you've got a broken heart
But the world keeps turning
Like it's never gonna stop
Don't keep your worries to yourself
[Chorus 2]
You'll be okay, it's fine
You'll be alright
I do this all the time
Stop overthinking
Don't run away from all your problems
Everything will be alright
Okay, it's fine
I'm always by your side
[Post-Chorus]
Na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na
[Bridge]
Come on everybody
You're making something out of nothing
You don't have to be so hard on yourself
Come on everybody
You're the star of your own movie
And we've all got our own story to tell
And now's the time to yourself
[Chorus 1]
I'll be okay, it's fine
I'll be alright
I do this all the time
Stop overthinking
Don't run away from all my problems
Everything will be alright
Okay, it's fine
I'm always by my side
[Chorus 2]
You'll be okay, it's fine
You'll be alright
I do this all the time
Stop overthinking
Don't run away from all your problems
Everything will be alright
Okay, it's fine
I'm always by your side
[Outro]
Na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na

I wrote this with songwriter Ross Hamilton. Co-writing was a cool new experience for me. We spent two days in London. Normally, I go into a co-writing session with voice memos and ideas in case I’m stuck, but in this situation we just spoke about the music we liked. He came up with a few electronic...
