Little Over-thinker

I'm drunk off my thoughts,

And it gets hard to stop

With all that's going on.


My thoughts swirl round and round again

Round and round inside my head

From work, worries and catchy songs.


I've had times of peace,

But I can relapse just as easily

With all of this non-stop noise.


When you face ugly reality,

It can make you sad just as quickly.

What you do with it is all your choice.


Although, it's hard to not overthink

When the whole world is out of sync.

The mind gets harder to manage.


How am I supposed to say what's on my mind,

Especially when half of the thoughts aren't mine?

The enemy's always trying to cause damage.


Sometimes it gets just a little chaotic.

I'm longing for some quiet,

Just a little peace of mind.


Anxiety swirls inside my heart

As my sky loses all of its stars.

Where can I find the light?


'Cause I'm stuck overthinking again.

I just wish this cycle of thoughts would end.
