Cyborg (I Cannot Feel)

by Aage Crow   Mar 11, 2008


Swift, Strong and without equal
I can match even the darkest of evil
Frozen, Heartless and full of wire
Oh how I wish I could retire
The one I love and wish to hold
Tells me every day that I'm too cold
My metallic flesh too harsh on his skin
The body I'm in is way too thin
If I could I'd cry at his kiss
Knowing that I can't keep living like this
I can't feel his touch and a tear can't fall
All I can do is run when he gives call
Powerful enough now to protect him
But at what cost is it for then
That I can't feel that which I've longed for
All because I've been skinned and tore
For what purpose do I give up everything
When my love is angry and now he's screaming
That there's a limit on protecting someone
And that my sacrifice is not one of love
Even though he cries and is upset
I know in my robotic heart that he understands
That I didn't give up anything in the end
And if I could I'd do this to myself all over again
A cyborg I am that can't love or feel
Because my soul is long gone and this heart is of steel
