Overthinking Killed The Teenager
Not quite sure yet
What I want to
be
But so much pressure
Just to get my
degree
I’m young and free
Even crazy and
wild
Don’t you even dare
To treat me like a
child
Though I can’t help but think
Where will I be in 10
years?
Will I finally have courage,
to face my worst
fears?
Will I still have my boyfriend,
who I’ve been
with?
Do high school sweethearts
exist, or is that just a
myth?
Should I go get drunk,
this weekend with my
friends?
I got invited to another party
The fun never
ends
Wait I’m kind of insecure
About my body and
weight
Why am I still awake?
It’s getting pretty
late
Yet I still haven’t started
Any of my
homework
Who cares anyway though
I mean my teacher’s a
****
I’m under so much pressure
Because I’ve got to
graduate
But you try being a teenager
In a world filled with
hate
Overthinking killed the teenager
And that teenager is
I
Overthinking every thought
And I don’t know *why
"Teenagers"-People who are treated like children but expected to act like adults.
