They Think I'm Better

People. Seeing only what they want to see.

They all look at me like I'm some idiot,

But I think they're the imbeciles.

In my eyes they're just a lot of cretinous bigots.

They think I'm better, but they only know the part of me that's visual.

So let me spell it out for you lot,

Your eyes are obviously blind

With all of you I've fought,

And my pain is mine.

You can't force me into thinking a lie

No one is strong enough to make me that stupid

Your views on life are stale, dry

My gullibility has been executed.

Don't lump me in with the masses

Because you'll find I stand out more than you like

You'll begin to realize my independence far surpasses

All the other poor souls that have believed you, and they can take a hike.

You all see me so extremely happy-go-lucky

You have honestly fallen for my obvious charade

You psychologists ought to go back to school to study

Because I've sure as hell given you enough visual aids.

I'm clearly the puppet-master here

And you all are my marionettes

And sadly for you all, I make an excellent puppeteer,

Pulling your strings for  the rest of our lives, I'll bet.

And I really think its funny

That you all think I'm better

Because surely you're all too bright and sunny

To realize my hardcore depression, so here's my resignation letter.
