The Curse of Thinking

There's an ability 
Might be rare but allegeds stability

The curse of thinking
Usually pretty usefull
Comes in handy
And keeps the situation cool

The dark side do exist
As it forces to over-analyze
Compels one to always think
And makes many situations, realize

Forces one to overthink
Perhaps the biggest drawback
As well as some boon to bear
If the analysis delays the setback

Changes your view
By which you see others
If they fail to observe
You'll disgust them forever

Prevents cringe habits
And avoid those having them
Many might climb on you
Like you're some kind of stem

It gives you some morals
And apathize sympathy
Those who seek it exist
And when you don't, they envy

The curse of thinking
It is as it is
Can't change its nature
And have to bear as it is
