there are many types of happy
of which i show not one
upon the outside anger and hate
on the inside its a debate
for the darkness and happiness
to try and relate
not to be hateful
and try to be sane
thats why im crazy
thats the fun of being insane
people will laugh
and people will cower
some think its funny
some show nothing but fear
my heart is dark
my mind is bright
life is mysterious
and i know i am right
because if life wasn’t strange
it wouldn't be fun
it wouldn't let me be myself
the fact that everyone sees
life differently makes everyone crazy
and most importantly
it makes us and individual
