Surrender

Its so painful to be first
I'm driven by this huge thirst
Yet I fight this urge with lips pursed
How exhausting to be human
Seeing You, and wanting You, then
Seeing me and getting pulled back in
I'm the ugly banner that
The magician pulls from his hat
Unending ribbon, the crowd claps
When at last the parade of deceit
Stops, magician bows, everyone leaves their seat
Part of me plans a grandiose retreat
The ribbon turns into a snake
Slithers off the stage to escape
More joy to kill, more truth to rape
