Psychological Warefare

Psychological Warefare going round in my head
Don't know whether to be alive or dead
The tide is a turning the old cliche says
And everyone's living in reality
Everyone that is except for me
And Psychological Warefare is taking its toll
Where I'll be tomorrow I don't know
My mind is racing in a million directions
I hope someday I'll make a connection

Psychological Warefare going round in my head
My feet seem numb but their floating in the air
Giggling only makes the summer come sooner
My mama always told me I was a loser
But I go passing by the apple store everyday
And the golden delicious talk to me and they do say
"You've got to get your feet back on the ground
Don't let your head keep going round and round"
Now I've never taken advice from an apple before
But that's okay because I know he's right

Psychological Warefare going round in my head
I'm seeking out the answers of this world
But I can't seem to put my finger on where I saw that girl
In my mind you are visually fine, but society views you differently
Rejection seems to come with the territory and
My eyes have made contact with another lost soul
And no else is going to help you but me
So don't leave just because you think I am crazy
I am everything you need to be and more

Psychological Warefare going round in my head
Decisions are being made everyday that affect my life
But I never get asked about what I think
So I can't be blamed for my negative disposition
Because all we have in life is hope and wishing
And that's not enough, at least not enough for me
And that's why a psychological war is going on in my head

Interesting piece, a lot of good lines in this and some silly ones, but I think you intended it to be like that to show this guy can be serious and thougtful but also has no connection with reality. I think that this could have been a really great poem if you delved a little deeper in trying bring this point across. Nevertheless, a fun read.

Personally, i think that you are trying to blame the world for your problems. The poem itself, however, did have its merits, especially in the second stanza.

Thinking is just what a great many people think they are doing when they are merely rearranging their predjudices.
