[Verse 1]
These days I've been in transition
Emotions they blur my vision
Trying to find what's been missing
But I'm finding it harder to let go
[Chorus]
So much time that I wasted tryin' a change it
I always wanna run away, never face it
Stuck inside my mind, getting complicated
I gotta keep reminding myself
Don't worry
Don't worry
When the weight gets heavy
It's only temporary
Don't worry
Don't worry
So unnecessary
It's only temporary, temporary
I need to slow it down
Slow it, slow it down
Slow it, slow it down
[Verse 2]
Hard days will pass, just a moment
Learning to trust without knowing
I don't need closure
Won't lose sleep over
Thoughts that pull me lower no
[Chorus]
So much time that I wasted tryin' a change it
I always wanna run away, never face it
Stuck inside my mind, getting complicated
I gotta keep reminding myself
Don't worry
Don't worry
When the weight gets heavy
It's only temporary
Don't worry
Don't worry
So unnecessary
It's only temporary, temporary
I need to slow it down
Slow it, slow it down
Slow it, slow it down
Temporary
Song Meaning
Blanca names the actual cycle behind anxiety in "Temporary" rather than just the feeling itself — "so much time that I wasted tryin' a change it, I always wanna run away, never face it." The verses admit avoidance as the real problem, not the hard circumstance being avoided, which is a more specific confession than most songs about worry attempt.
The repeated instruction "don't worry... it's only temporary" isn't presented as automatic relief; it's something the singer has to actively rehearse — "I gotta keep reminding myself" comes right before the chorus starts, framing the reassurance as discipline rather than a feeling that simply arrives. "I need to slow it down" repeated three times in a row acts almost like a breathing exercise built into the lyric itself.
"I don't need closure, won't lose sleep over thoughts that pull me lower" in the second verse pushes the song past generic comfort into something more specific — permission to stop needing every hard situation fully resolved before peace is allowed.
