it's tough to wear your heart on your sleeve when all the world seems to want to do is hand you a handkerchief with a "hey you've got a spot there you might want to wipe out." i'm not made for this world. no matter how i try to connect i seem to keep missing. 

yeah, it is difficult when people think you're a lunatic. it's even worse when you start to think that maybe they're right.
