Styx

I tried to be the perfect soldier
I tried to be what everyone said was expected
Somehow I was selected
Well, my hands were steady, my aim was true
But deep inside of my heart I knew
That I lacked the will
I just couldnt shoot to kill
And still she treats me like a human
She says shell still be there
I may not be a hero, but Ill be there
Because I know she cares
I worked hard to be the greatest lover
I wanted to be sure that I was her only one
Thats how I thought it was done
But I went too far, assumed too much
The need to feel a younger ones touch
Seemed important then
