Julia Michaels entregou para o mundo uma parceria com Selena Gomez nesta quinta (24/1). A música “Anxiety”, abertura do EP “Inner Monologue Part 1”, foi gravada por ambas as cantoras. A letra escrita por Julia trata da luta de uma pessoa contra a ansiedade, algo que acomete vários artistas, como Zayn, Camila Cabello e Ariana Grande, por exemplo.
A composição mostra como o sentimento domina a pessoa e é muito difícil vencê-lo. A letra traz versos como “eu faço todos esses planos com meus amigos e torço para que cancelem”, “sinto que estou sempre me desculpando por sentir” e “todos meus amigos não sabem como é, eles não entendem porque não consigo dormir à noite”. Confira a letra completa abaixo:
My friends, they wanna take me to the movies
I tell ‘em to fuck off, I’m holding hands with my depression
And right when I think I’ve overcome it
Anxiety starts kicking in to teach that shit a lesson
Oh, I try my best just to be social
I make all these plans with friends and hope they call and cancel
Then I overthink about the things I’m missing
Now I’m wishing I was with ‘em
Feel like I’m always apologizing for feeling
Like I’m out of my mind when I’m doing just fine
And my exes all say that I’m hard to deal with
And I admit it, yeah
But all my friends, they don’t know what it’s like, what it’s like
They don’t understand why I can’t sleep through the night
I’ve been told that I could take something to fix it
Damn, I wish it, I wish it was that simple, ah
All my friends they don’t know what it’s like, what it’s like
Always wanted to be one of those people in the room
That says something and everyone puts their hand up
Like, “If you’re sad put your hand up
If you hate someone, put your hand up
If you’re scared, put your hand up”
Feel like I’m always apologizing for feeling
Like I’m out of my mind when I’m doing just fine
And my exes all say that I’m hard to deal with
And I admit, it’s true
But all my friends, they don’t know what it’s like, what it’s like
They don’t understand why I can’t sleep through the night
And I thought that I could take something to fix it
Damn, I wish it, I wish it was that simple, ah
All my friends they don’t know what it’s like, what it’s like
I got all these thoughts, running through my mind
All the damn time and I can’t seem to shut it off
I think I’m doing fine most of the time
I think that I’m alright, but I can’t seem to shut it off
I got all these thoughts, running through my mind
All the damn time and I can’t seem to shut it off
I think I’m doing fine most of the time
I say that I’m alright, but I can’t seem to shut it off
Shut it, shut it, yeah
But all my friends, they don’t know what it’s like, what it’s like
They don’t understand why I can’t sleep through the night
I’ve been told that I could take something to fix it
Damn, I wish it, I wish it was that simple, ah
All my friends they don’t know what it’s like, what it’s like
Li-i-i-i-ike
What it’s like, what it’s like
Hmm-mm-mm, mmm
What it’s like
I love this song
