Alive in the Age of Worry

My Above the Line Playlist gets put on repeat when worry and doubt slip into my head. And when I need a reminder to embrace the unknown, find power in my mistakes, or find confidence in this moment – exactly as it is – I play this little tune.

If you need a three-minute ticket off the worry train, press play and sing a long!

Close your eyes and then clone yourself
Build your heart an army
To defend your innocence
While you do everything wrong
Don’t be scared to walk alone
Don’t be scared to like it
There’s no time that you must be home
So sleep where your darkness falls

Alive in the age of worry
Smile in the age of worry
Go wild in the age of worry
And sing “Worry, why should I care?”

No your fight is not with them
Yours is with your time here
Dream your dreams but don’t pretend
Make friends with what you are
Give your heart then change your mind
You’re allowed to do it
Cause God knows it’s been done to you
And somehow you got through it

Alive in the age of worry
Rage in the age of worry
Sing out in the age of worry
And sing “Worry, why should I care?”
Rage in the age of worry
Act your age in the age of worry
And sing “Worry, get out of here!”
