Lyrics

Is it OK to italicise the lyrics "all my troubles seemed so far away" in this instance as they are part of the speaker's thoughts?

I was not terrible, but I wasn’t gifted either; I recalled the lyrics to “Yesterday” (all my troubles seemed so far away) as I was consumed by my own insecurity

Thanks.
