Toy Cow

See me not crawling on my knees,
I walk with no self pity.
Mistakes are these badges on my lapel
I see that you don't wear yours as well.
I'm in an army that will provide this protection.
I think of you less, your face of perfection.
I love the idea of loving you,
But ideas are ideal and you are real.
See me not crawling on my knees,
I walk with no self pity.
I sit now surrounded in love,
you sit a world away.
Your flaws have destroyed me
Your love has sustained me
That love is gone
And I'm still strong.
