What Is Normal

You say that I’m not normal You say that I am a little bit odd I know that I have weaknesses I know that I am flawed You say that I am crazy You say that I am quite insane But how can you really claim to know What is going on inside my brain? My views are not the same as what you seem to believe I just see things differently Than the way that you perceive So, who are you to tell me That I am insane or not When you know nothing of the demons that I have fought Am I a deranged lunatic? Or perhaps a psychopath? Am I a madman who spews Their hatred, rage and wrath? Perhaps I’m the one that’s normal And everyone else has gone insane In which case, it will be From sanity that I will abstain.
