Happiness in my head
Learned to deal
with the insanity
and loss of reality
I found in my head.
Instead of accepting it,
I fought it for years
and long did I wallow
in depression and fear.
I'd swallow
handfuls of those
doctor's happy pills,
colored pearls
were quite pretty
but didn't paint me
a brighter picture
of the world.
Then a voice in my head
said to embrace my insane.
Rage against Love,
wrap yourself in the pain.
Beware of force fields,
avoid shadowless souls,
barricade windows
with aluminum foil shields.
Now I'm getting it,
I'm meeting societal norms.
No one's suspecting
I was born
any different.
I've made forever friends
and I'm happy again!
They gave me
a ticket to see
a movie with them.
(I heard it was funny)
I waited all night,
but no one arrived.
That's okay, cause
I hung out instead
with the friends
who are there for me
inside my head.
Guess that's just
one of the strange
kind of perks
of living the insane
way of life on this earth.
