Analysis of Delirium



I'm not a loser,
Not a winner,
Try to be good,
Cause its easier to be a sinner,
Don't flatter me,
Don't put me down,
In your words,
I won't drown,
Don't always pay attention,
Don't always neglect,
Though at times carried away,
By the effect,
I'm not totally lost,
But not easily found,
Close to the earth,
Have my feet on the ground,
Don't tell me I'm wrong,
When no one is truely right,
You can't convince me of colors,
When there is only black and white,
Don't tell me I'm late,
I can see the time,
We all have our faults,
Don't consider it a crime,
Not saying I'm smart,
Not saying I'm dumb,
Somewhere in the middle of,
Sanity and delirium..............BAD-Mc..<3
