barbed wire

they say

they say

i have a criminal mind

so now and then

i have to remind

them, i'm not insane

they say

i have a cruel streak

and that in many ways

i am very weak

but, i'm not insane

they say

i have a thirst for blood

no compassion

no love

but, i'm not insane

they say

i have a murderous soul

my heart is but

an empty dark hole

I'M NOT INSANE

i am

just in pain
