PSYCHOPATH
Trying to prove you are not a psychopath is even harder than trying to prove you are not mentally ill […] -Jon Ronson, “The Psychopath Test”
In this musical an angry man based off of – well – an angry man, sang the lyrics that ring most true to me:
“You call me amoral,
A dangerous disgrace,”
because when I have to explain the anti-psychotics I take
are because
I’m a psychopath.
If you try to understand the diagnosis I have
you’re going to find only the people who are very bad;
I don’t have the same broken pieces that they had
but that’s the risk of you know
I’m a psychopath.
The symptoms aren’t as easy to describe
and I really haven’t tried in a very long time.
However, I can at least tell you this…
Just because I’m a psychopath
doesn’t make me a serial killer.
It just means you’re prejudice.
