Search and Destroy

You were on a mission, weren't you?
You knew from the start
Where this roadway would end.
You sought me out bringing wild abandon
To the table to serve as dessert,
And I was swept up on this wild Carney ride.
Breathless and helpless to call to a halt,
We punched every ticket 'til long after sunset
Never believing the fair would shut down.
But you never stopped seeking new rides to venture;
New thrills and spectacles were your demands.
Never content to just sit close and snuggle,
Never enough to just walk holding hands.
So sad you never could learn love's contentment.
Too bad your fickle heart couldn't be coy.
I'll not participate.
I'll not be party to you on your mission
To search and destroy.
