Here is an example of a conqueror love song:

You stood on the ground I wanted to own
I overcame you binding you to me
I found you, love, where I wanted to be
I wanted to own you and the earth of you
I rip up the names of your ancestors and call you me
(Fill in name of country.)

Alice Notley from Songs and Stories of the Ghouls, p. 34.
