Insane is Opinionated



The red runs down my legs

I don’t really care

Better sleep just in my undergarments

Because the flesh beneath my skin is bare

The voices all hate me

I think I hate me too

And my friends they hate my guts

I might pull a knife on you

Oh the fantasies of cutting their stomach

Letting their blood warm me

My parents aren’t concerned

Because I’m really good at hiding the misery

I think there’s somebody always watching me

It wouldn’t be concerning counting I collect my baby teeth

I’ve lost all hope in humanity

There’s no point in believing

Just let world rot

Let us further destroy

There is no turning back now

Let the earth bleed

I swear I’m not insane

I only see the truth behind the lies

For the definition of insane is opinionated

I’m a good kid

"Please dad and mom I’m sorry I won’t do it again"

I’ll gas them up with chloroform

And drag their insides right out the back doorway

I’ll taste blood and let the voices drive me

I swear I’m not insane

To love is to be willing to kill for the thing

If you can’t place a bullet in the brain it’s not truly loving

I'm not insane

For the definition of insane is opinionated
