Lessons

 

I have learned the lessons

That were taught to me in steel

And I have learned the price required

That you must pay to feel

 

I have learned too much they say

Or so I have been told

Perhaps that would explain to some

Why inside I'm so cold

 

What is it I have done now

With all that I have learned

Surviving in this world where

Too long love still is spurned

 

In truth I must admit

That yes indeed I'm far from grace

I gave up on the species long ago

Back in that place

 

Where a message born of reason

We could only teach with steel

And the lesson learned in killing

Was don't ever learn to feel
