Fear My Thoughts Part II

I'm an ordinary child
With a bit of a twist -
I'm no longer of this world,
By Death I have been kissed.
People feared who I was
And what I might have done -
I used to cut myself
Just to see my blood run.
I was rejected
Because I was dressed in black,
Afraid I would turn
And stab them in the back.
But it was never my actions
They had to fear.
How they got to that conclusion
I have no idea.
But, don't get me wrong,
There were things by which they were disturbed.
And rightly so,
If they weren't, it would've been absurd.
The problem is
They feared the wrong things -
They feared what my mouth said
Instead of the song my mind sings.
Because they do not know
The demons I have fought.
They should never have feared me
But rather feared my thoughts...
