Overthinking

You know that moment before you sleep,
잠들기 직전 그 순간 있잖아요,

 

when your body’s tired but your mind just won’t stop talking?
몸은 피곤한데 마음은 멈추질 않고 계속 말을 걸어오는 그때요.

 

It replays every conversation,
그날 나눴던 모든 대화를 다시 떠올리고,

 

every word you said — or didn’t say.
했던 말, 하지 못한 말까지 전부 되감아요.


You think,
그리고 이런 생각이 들죠.

 

“What if I sounded weird?”
“내가 이상하게 들렸으면 어쩌지?”

 

“What if they didn’t really mean what they said?”
“그 사람이 진심이 아니었다면?”

 

“What if I messed everything up?”
“혹시 내가 다 망쳐버린 건 아닐까?”


That’s overthinking.
그게 바로 과한 생각이에요.

 

It’s like being trapped inside a movie that never ends —
끝나지 않는 영화 속에 갇힌 기분처럼

one where you’re the only character,
그 영화엔 나 혼자뿐이고,

and everything you do feels wrong.
무엇을 해도 틀린 것처럼 느껴져집니다


But here’s the truth,
하지만 진실은 이건데,

 

Most of the time, people don’t even remember what you said.
대부분의 사람들은 우리가 한 말을 기억하지 않아요.

 

They’re too busy thinking about what they said.
그 사람들도 자신이 한 말을 떠올리느라 바쁘거든요.


So maybe, you can let it go.
그러니까 그냥 놓아 버려도 됩니다.

 

Not because it doesn’t matter,
그 일이 중요하지 않아서가 아니라,

 

But nobody cares
아무도 신경쓰지 않기 때문입니다
