8. Maybe I like Me?

Just because I'm hurting doesn't mean I'm empty
Just because I'm broken doesn't mean I'm bleeding

Just because I'm cutting doesn't mean I'm dying, though I wish I would
So what if I'm sad, it doesn't mean I need to be happy

So what if I'm depressed it doesn't mean I want your pills for release
So what if I'm suicidal, it doesn't mean I want your therapy, it means I want liberation from this world

I know I'm messed up, but maybe I don't want to be fixed
I know my mind is corrupt, but maybe I like my abnormality?

I know I'm crazy, but maybe I like insanity,
Maybe I like my twisted, scarred, unique, ugly, strange, screwed up self
Has it ever occurred to anyone that maybe I like me?
