Overthinkin'
Letting Go of Heartache: "Overthinkin'" by Styles Haury
Lyrics
It's been two weeks now
Expressing the passage of time, suggesting a period of contemplation or emotional turmoil.
Doin' the same thing
Indicating a repetitive and stagnant routine.
Tryna drown you out, another whiskey drank
Trying to escape emotional pain through alcohol but unsuccessful.
But it ain't workin' 'cause
Acknowledging that attempts to move on are not effective.
My heart's still broke
Conveying a lingering sense of heartbreak.
My movin' on's movin' on too slow
Feeling that the process of moving on is too slow.
You're like a hurricane rattlin' my brain
Comparing the emotional impact to a hurricane affecting the mind.
Runnin' like a freight train all day
Describing a fast-paced, overwhelming emotional experience.
Thinkin' 'bout
Introducing thoughts about a person or past relationship.
Who you with, where you at
Reflecting on specific details about the person and the relationship, expressing the emotional impact.
What you wearin' now
-What cowboy's got you out there
-Spinnin' 'round
-Holdin' your hand, buyin' your drinks
-Callin' you beautiful, got you up
-Losin' sleep i'm over breakin' down
-I'm over drinkin' 'bout
Expressing a desire to move past dwelling on the person's actions.
Everything you do girl
Acknowledging the difficulty in letting go of thoughts about the person.
I'm over thinkin' bout you
Reiterating the struggle with overthinking about the person.
Gonna delete you, girl
Contemplating the idea of removing the person from social media or contacts, seeking distraction.
Quit lookin' at my phone
-Finally throw some fresh line
-On that fishin' pole
-Call the boys up, we'll burn it downtown
-Instead of sittin' here, hung up
-Worried 'bout
-Who you with, where you at
Repeating the cycle of thoughts and emotions, emphasizing the difficulty in moving on.
What you wearin' now
-What cowboy's got you out there
-Spinnin' 'round
-Holdin' your hand, buyin' your drinks
-Callin' you beautiful, got you up
-Losin' sleep i'm over breakin' down
-I'm over drinkin' 'bout
-Everything you do girl
-I'm over thinkin' bout you
Reaffirming the persistent struggle of overthinking about the person.
I'm over thinkin' bout you
Repeating the sentiment of being overburdened by thoughts about the person.
Give me all the whiskey in the world
Expressing a desire for distraction and healing through external elements like whiskey and music.
All the bars
-And a small jukebox full of Merle
-Get this heart unbroke
-'Til I don't wanna know
-Who you with, where you at
Reiterating the specific thoughts and emotions related to the person, highlighting the struggle to move on.
What you wearin' now
-What cowboy's got you out there
-Spinnin' 'round
-Holdin' your hand, buyin' your drinks
-Callin' you beautiful, got you up
-Losin' sleep i'm over breakin' down
-I'm over drinkin' 'bout
-Everything you do girl
-I'm over thinkin' bout you
-I'm over thinkin' bout you
Final repetition of the central theme of overthinking about the person.
