Measuring sickness through sadness Everybody is listening but no one understands Shelter myself into solitude Alone with my thoughts once again They say that the pictures I paint Call out for their help I wish they would not make a subject out of me They say that I am crazy And that I'll never learn The threat of difference Is what frightens them At night, dreams of death To die is just another part of life So I draw what I see Through blacks and through whites It is my vision with complexity They call me abnormal The key to the psyche I guess it's me they need to worry about No more questions, no more needles I wish they would untie my hands No chance to even carry failure So from a drug induced state I grab the american dream And mold it into my own
