Pecularities of the Soul
I am peculiar and insane
I wonder why they come for me
I hear the shadow's whispers
I see the devils close around me
I want them to stop approaching
I am peculiar and insane
I pretend to be a silvertongue
I feel strong and powerful
I touch the characters of books to protect me
I worry they will disappear
I cry when they leave me
I am peculiar and insane
I understand they don't want to hurt me
I say that I'm not insane
I dream of a world with all pecularities
I try to keep sane
I hope humans will understand one day
I am peculiar and insane
