Overanalysis


I draw out every single word
 
Analyze my daily world 
 
Just to see what it lacks
 
See where it leaks and where it cracks
 
But all this pulling apart
 
Has left me dismantled at the start
 
I gazed through different lenses
 
Notiched that she's apprehensive
 
She's too modest to mention
 
Her lack of attention
 
So I pried for more problems
 
Though I knew I couldn't solve them
 
Cause I just don’t know better
 
And my friends say just let her
 
But instead I wrote a letter
 
And crumbled it up
 
And pretended
 
It ended but it
 
It lingered 
 
And a trace of desire
 
Still wired my brain
