Telepathic Schizophrenic

I’m a schizophrenic person, 
A telepathic one at that,
And all my thoughts I send to you, 
And they’re all a bit abstract, 

Strange thoughts to odd and unique, 
In a wonderful world of mad,
These are the contrasting thoughts I’ve thought, 
The little thoughts I’ve had,

And they are that people talk of me, 
I hear voices in my head,
And I know that I have special powers, 
Hearing thoughts of thoughts unsaid,

And my eyes see things that others don’t, 
They see things that you see too,
They see everything that’s in your mind, 
Because, my friend, I’m you.

Reminds me of Phil Harris's song, "I'm My Own Grandpa," but I did not guess the ending in any way shape or form. Well done! Added to my favorite list immediately.

I was wondering where you were going to go with that, exactly where it makes sense. Love it.
