Ezi created a mini series to go with the song, instead of a full music video. She explains in the description for the videos that:
Each one is meant to show how even the most colorful and simple surfaces are surrounded by chaos that is invisible to most. We’re all fighting little battles with ourse...
[Verse 1]
Feelin' defeated, there must be some kind of reason
Can't feel anything outside myself
My ego is shrinking, they think that they know what I'm thinking
I don't think I need their kind of help
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so
[Chorus]
Why am I overthinking?
Tryn' not to overthink this
I do my best to fight it
Why am I overthinking?
Tryn' not to overthink this
I do my best to fight it
I'm so anxious
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so
I'm so anxious
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so
[Verse 2]
The choir in my brain, is so fucking debilitating
A thousand voices, different keys, so
I try to diffuse it, and put on some positive music
But it don't work when I can't relate
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so
[Chorus]
Why am I overthinking?
Tryn' not to overthink this
I do my best to fight it
Why am I overthinking?
Tryn' not to overthink this
I do my best to fight it
I'm so anxious
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so
I'm so anxious
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so
[Bridge]
'Cause at the end of the day, I'm just afraid
I'm a heartbreak away
And all the prescriptions and paths, and addictions we have
They can't keep us sane
So I keep lying to myself
To make it better, to make it better
And I pretend I'm someone else
It makes it better
[Chorus]
Why am I overthinking?
Tryn' not to overthink this
I do my best to fight it
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so
Why am I overthinking?
Tryn' not to overthink this
I do my best to fight it
Why am I overthinking?
Tryn' not to overthink this
I do my best to fight it
I'm so anxious
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so (I'm so)
I'm so anxious
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so (I'm so)
Anxious. was written by EZI & Sam Nicolosi & Jayme Silverstein.
Anxious. was produced by Tommy Hubbard & Rich Zahniser & Niko The Kid.
Ezi explained what inspired her to write the song in an interview:
I was in the studio, frustrated because I was writing another song that I wasn’t really feeling. I was filled with this really crippling anxiety that day, and I didn’t know how to handle it. I started talking about it to my co-write...
