From the album "What's The Point?" (2005)

Recorded in Boston, MA

lyrics

theres no such thing as love and I’m under the impression
that we mistake love a lot for what is really obsession
feelings and emotions are mere chemical at best
and if I really had a heart I’d stab myself in the chest
”don’t hold my hand if you cant look me in the eyes”-?
or we could keep our mouths shut and then we wont tell each lies
I’ve had enough of make believe and I want reality
I want to know its nothing when yr bodys pressed against me

we all find it hard to escape social conditioning
but its not fair to each other to keep up this old tradition
and I for one refuse to be manipulated
and I wont rely on falsehoods to help justify our existence

falling in love is just another superstition
you might get tricked a few times but soon you’ll lose yer erection
and then they give you pills to help cope with yer dis-ease
but the real problem you refuse to face is called monogamy
you can call it what you want just to make yerself feel better
but the way you think you feel about me isnt what gets me wetter
and if my body is a temple then come on and give me head
but the truth of the matter,Love, is that yer God Is Dead.

we all find it hard to escape social conditioning
but its not fair to each other to keep up this old tradition
and I for one refuse to be manipulated
and I wont rely on falsehoods to help justify our existence

theres not much in this world that really matters to me
I don’t think I’ve ever hear a truth that I could believe
so if love isnt real then what is there left?
may be life is a lie and the truth is death?
