My biggest weakness is my sensitivity. I am too sensitive a person.
I feel like sometimes that I was not meant for this society.
I'm in trouble because I'm normal and slightly arrogant. A lot of people don't like themselves and I happen to be totally in love with myself.

Sometimes I put on a ski mask and dress in old clothes, go out on the streets and beg for quarters.
I don't react to a tragic happening any more. I took so many bad things as a kid and some people think I don't care about anything. It's just too hard for me to get emotional. I can't cry no more.

The only thing I do is just pray for inspiration, for a way of thinking, because I don't have any particular goal in sight.
I know I'm going to blow one day. My life is doomed the way it is. I have no future.
