Yes, He's Talking to Himself
Mumbling like some ******
Chanting like some Mooney

But it is to himself he speaks
No voices does he hear
Contemplating his misery
Or some bygone forgotten fear
Poor soul of delusion
He pulls from within
The strength of a Titan
Of a hundred strong men
Hero of stories
That never are told
Where he is the hero
So strong and so bold

Yes, He's Talking to Himself
Harmless as can be
Ask me how I know
Because it's me, talking to me
People always have asked what's up with my muttering. No, I don't hear voices or people that aren't there. You may have about three to four thoughts at the same time. I was born with a brain that continually fires. Unfortunately it's taken me years to master having so many thoughts at the same time. I found it easier if I talked them out when I was a boy. The other unfortunate truth is it's considered socially unacceptable.
