Over-Intellectualization
Sometimes I sit here and wonder why
People are so damn afraid to die
if you like sitting here overthinking and waisting your time
You might as well just get up and go become a mime
Everyone is running away from death
Yet they never stop and listen or take a breath
We obsess over doing the best on all the tests
So much that in the end we have no time left
Life is like six flags it can really make you sick
But realize feelings are the one thing you pick
Your body is the filter and your feelings are the water
Depending on you their affects could be much smaller
Its all based on how you your process emotions
But to sadness there are no true mystical potions
Other than happiness filled with all the laughs and smiles
Life is like a rollercoaster that goes on for miles
Would you rather get off early than enjoy the ride
Damn i really guess people are afraid to die
If you sit here overthinking than your waisting your time
You'll be missing all the beauty thats waiting right outside
