Fatal Perceptions

I'm not contaminated I just wanna be loved why do you treat me this way? am I not good enough? I'm not the infection I'm the cure don't appreciate the cruel ways of human kind distancing themselves from me as if I'm a plague in their minds calling me contagious I wouldn't be so sure I think I'm on the brink of destruction as a result of all the scams and corruption tempted I am to give in but I'm resistant to their suction won't let them take me alive for peace and acceptance I constantly strive it's okay 'cause when push comes to shove I know that I will survive If I'm so lethal then why aren't you dead if I'm rotting your brain then get me out of your head it's unnecessary to poison yourself if I'm such a threat then why do you hang around me if you're really bad then grab me by the throat and drown me don't wanna put anyone at risk like a plague I'm all around you can only pretend that I don't exist Am I dead to you? or is it the other way around? Am I infecting you? can you feel the symptoms now? just making sure that everything is clear don't worry your time will come soon be prepared you won't be fed in tea spoons come on take it like a man have no fear I float around I can't be caged the reason why is because I'm enraged maybe that's why it kills you to be around me 'cause you're scared you'll drop dead I'm not guilty I'll make an innocent pledge but you just won't let me be will you? If I'm so lethal then why aren't you dead if I'm rotting your brain then get me out of your head it's unnecessary to poison yourself if I'm such a threat then why do you hang around me if you're really bad then grab me by the throat and drown me don't wanna put anyone at risk like a plague I'm all around you can only pretend that I don't exist Not a carpet can't let you step on me don't need a ventilator I can independently breathe there is no compassion left for it was all obtained by theft If I'm so lethal then why aren't you dead if I'm rotting your brain then get me out of your head it's unnecessary to poison yourself if I'm such a threat then why do you hang around me if you're really bad then grab me by the throat and drown me don't wanna put anyone at risk like a plague I'm all around you can only pretend that I don't exist If I'm so lethal then why aren't you dead if I'm rotting your brain then get me out of your head it's unnecessary to poison yourself if I'm such a threat then why do you hang around me if you're really bad then grab me by the throat and drown me don't wanna put anyone at risk like a plague I'm all around you can only pretend that I don't exist By Glenn McCrary © 2010 Glenn McCrary (All rights reserved)
