To make a bad decision
And come up with eight good reasons
Why it's not a bad decision
Even as the consequences
Are raining down upon you
Is pretty damn smart
I have to admit
To date an idiot
And come up with logical reasons
Why trusting your heart
To someone you normally
Wouldn't trust with a house plant
Is actually quite bright
I have to admit
To put effort into something
That is clearly going to fail
And continue putting effort in
Even as it's failing
Which is basically like putting water in a barrel
With more holes in it than actual container surface
And to tell yourself the entire time
That you're "working towards something"
Is almost genius
To convince yourself
You, a smart person
Who has spent their entire lives
Building up an intellect
That is nearly unmatched
That your intellect doesn't matter
As much as your "feelings"
Is astounding
Really, truly
It's awe-inspiring
In its magnitude
So, no
To answer your question
I don't think you're dumb
Because to act this dumb
You'd have to be smart
You gotta be smart
To act this dumb
