This seems like a natural follow-up monologue after a song like Meet My Shadow. Maybe this is what the author feared would occur after the significant other ‘Met His Shadow.’ The other person may not have been clear in their reaction to meeting the deeper parts of the author. Because of the lack of...
[Verse 1]
I see signs in your body language
I don't know why everything just changed
And now my heart is sinking through the floor
And your hand is reachin' for the door
Did I come on way too strong
When I told you why I want something more?
And now the silence is the only sound
In my head and I can't get it out
What did I not do right?
I'm all alone and
[Chorus]
I'm overthinking about you, replayin' every single moment
I'm not sleeping without you 'cause I don't know if this is over
I, I could try to make it right, but it's all overkill
I wish I could read your mind 'cause I'm still
[Post-Chorus]
Thinking over, thinking over
Thinking over, thinking over
Thinking over, thinking I'm
I'm over thinking, overthinking 'bout you
[Verse 2]
I keep bending over backwards
So I don't miss a handle on the laddеr
That I climb until I reach the top
And I'll be what I think you want
And was it thе shaking in my voice?
Or was it too soon? A mistake I could avoid
And now I think, the sun's about to rise
I'm exhausted and I know that I'm
[Chorus]
I'm overthinking about you, replayin' every single moment
I'm not sleeping without you 'cause I don't know if this is over
I, I could try to make it right, but it's all overkill
I wish I could read your mind 'cause I'm still
Thinking about you when I could feel you pull away
Now I'm obsessed with obsessing over the words I wish I didn't say
Everything was feeling perfect with you up until
I said way too many words, now I'm still
[Post-Chorus]
Thinking over, thinking over
Thinking over, thinking over
Thinking over, thinking I'm
I'm over thinking, overthinking 'bout you (Ooh)
[Bridge]
What did I not do right?
I'm alone and
I'm overthinking
I'm overthinking
[Chorus]
I'm overthinking about you, replayin' every single moment
I'm not sleeping without you 'cause I don't know if this is over
I, I could try to make it right, but it's just overkill
I wish I could read your mind 'cause I'm still
Thinking about you when I could feel you pull away
Now I'm obsessed with obsessing over the words I wish I didn't say
Everything was feeling perfect with you up until
I said way too many words, now I'm still
[Outro]
Thinking over, thinking over (Ooh)
Thinking over, thinking over
Thinking over, thinking I'm
I'm over thinking, overthinking 'bout you
