world war one
the great war
millions of men
go over the top
for marginal gains
that make no difference
all the death
all the destruction
all meaningless
all for nothing
the bachelor
throws countless women
all at one man
a modern day harem
without the taboo
islamic implications
(wouldn't want that)
they throw themselves
at him
vying for attention
craving some reciprocation
knowing deep down
that it is never gonna happen
they go over the top
emotionally
for what?
a chance at tv made love?
to be on another show
to be a celebrity
for whatever that's worth
no one really wins
everyone loses
in one way or another
never gaining any ground
keep going until
one side finally gives up
and calls it love
then break it off
once the cameras go away
cause we knew
deep down
that nothing ever changes
that all of this
was for absolutely nothing
