On Wednesday, Dec. 1, Shawn Mendes released an emotional new single called “It’ll Be Okay.” After hearing it, fans instantly became convinced it references his split with Camila Cabello since the lyrics are all about heartbreak. Here, some examples.
Mendes’ “It’ll Be Okay” is all about the end of a relationship, so you can’t blame fans for thinking he was inspired by his personal life. He starts the track by singing, “Are we gonna make it? Is this gonna hurt? Oh, we can try to sedate it, but that never works.”
He then sings that it’ll be hard to move on from that other person, but he knows it’s for the best. “I start to imagine a world where we don't collide / It's making me sick but we'll heal and the sun will rise,” he croons during the pre-chorus.
