Not

Sometimes my thoughts scare me not in 
a sense I'm crazy, I'm just extraordinarily 
strange 

Not that I find pleasure in pain but the cuts 
on my arm signify some type of mental  
joyful gain 

Not that I'm crazy but somewhat insane I 
try to remember that life is no game die 
once that's the end of the lane

Not that I'm afraid of death but I keep my 
distance sometimes I question my current 
existence I feel like I'm slipping away

Not physically but mentally ,mentally I'm 
deranged I think of slitting throats and 
skinning goats and turning the skin into 
coats, 

Not that I'd ever do it because that's out of 
range but my anger is filling up and so is
