I can manage to think myself into a bad mood, And not just any bad mood The kind of bad mood that makes you question life, The kind of bad mood that causes a strife. I get these gut wrenching feelings, My chest tightens, I can barely breathe, And I cry without any real reason. “What’s wrong with me?” I ask myself as my hands begin to tremble ‘I’m insane’ I think As my breathing hitches in my throat. I was fine two minutes ago And now I’m lying on the bathroom floor Trying to silence my sobs, So nobody else will hear. The part that bothers me most, Is I don’t have an explanation for why I’m crying Oh no, please don’t ask You’ll only make things worse. I can’t explain it to myself How am I supposed to explain it to you? This is helpless, I’m hopeless I even write this with tear-stained cheeks. Nobody can help me, I don’t even know what’s wrong with me And that’s why my dear, Overthinking will be the death of me. – Overthinking will be my Demise // F.C.

Overthinking will be my Demise
I can manage to think myself into a bad mood, And not just any bad mood The kind of bad mood that makes you question life, The kind of bad mood that causes a strife. I get these gut wrenching feelings, My chest tightens, I can barely breathe, And I cry without any real reason. “What’s wrong with me?” I ask myself as my hands begin to tremble ‘I’m insane’ I think As my breathing hitches in my throat. I was fine two minutes ago And now I’m lying on the bathroom floor Trying to silence my sobs, So nobody else will hear. The part that bothers me most, Is I don’t have an explanation for why I’m crying Oh no, please don’t ask You’ll only make things worse. I can’t explain it to myself How am I supposed to explain it to you? This is helpless, I’m hopeless I even write this with tear-stained cheeks. Nobody can help me, I don’t even know what’s wrong with me And that’s why my dear, Overthinking will be the death of me. – Overthinking will be my Demise // F.C.
