Night hits nine, my brain does a trick Time for the daily overthink shift Everyone sleeps, the house goes quiet My brain opens fifty tabs, real quick
“What if tomorrow I say something wrong?” “What if I trip on a rock or a brick?” “What if the teacher asks one hard thing?” Great, now my brain wrote a full Netflix flick
Scene number one: I fail the test Scene number two: career gets sick Scene number three: I live in a box Scene number four: I fight a stick!!!
Dead end here, dead end there Brain hits wall after wall, click Tiny sound in the back of my head “Confuckingrats, you unlocked another panic level pack”
Then a voice cuts straight through the night My roommate appears real calm and slick “Hey bro… Want a piece of cake?” Wow. Another decision to pick
Do I want it? Maybe I do But what if the sugar makes me feel sick Better run thirty future scenes Before I commit to this risky cake pick
Five minutes pass, brain doing math Ten minutes pass, logic gets thick Before I decide if cake is safe My alarm screams loud, perfect timing trick
Morning arrives, I slept for zero Brain feels slow like a rusty old brick I dress up fast, grab my bag Door says goodbye with a tiny click
Funny thing about these clicks Little sounds that help me stick Door clicks, mouse clicks, keyboard clicks Proof I’m not inside a weird brain trick
Because sometimes my thoughts get so deep Reality starts feeling a bit slippery-slick And the only thing grounding my mind Is the sound of another small click
