Apology to a Cow

I'm sorry, friend, I have to I know, I know it's rude I shouldn't work my problems out with food I'm sorry, pal, I got to It's either me or you Fight or be beaten Eat or be eaten Look what it makes me do It's stronger than it was And this is what the bat child does Deep in a cave under miles of stone I knew no word for sad Singing to echoes and all alone Needed no mom or dad I never dreamed of the world above I'd never seen the sky And yet I was content I never wondered why I never knew such a word as rage I learned that from you You locked your boy up inside a cage And all the while you knew Why bother giving me dad's old shirt! Why even intervene? Why bother washing off all the dirt? If I am still unclean You said you'd never hurt me, mom Whatever might occur So, how could you dare, mom? Make me aware, mom? Teach me to care, mom? And then deny me Her We had a chance at happiness Blissfully unaware We had a love we thought you'd bless We didn't have a prayer 'Cause you had to come destroy our love Like everything else I had Yet still I am content and I am not the least bit mad No, I'm not here to harm you I only want to kill! You shall have your monster I shall drink my fill At last I am embracing My bloody destiny Dear mom and dad, this face will be The last thing that you ever see Revenge will be a home for me For me For me
