Use and Throw

Use and throw, that's the philosophy
Be it things, be it people, doesn't matter...
A person's judged only by his utility
Once used, disposal is quite easy...

It's the material world my friend
Where the ego reigns supreme...
Where all that matters is convenience
Love's a word abused consistently...

A pure heart, true love, loyalty and faith
Stand betrayed, slain, extinct, pure fiction
You are not supposed to have feelings
Fool you've been not to understand, it's pure business...!

Your heart's ripped out mercilessly
Still you mustn't even make a whimper...
They make you vulnerable with so-called 'love'
And then they brand you, a weakling...

Thank you for revealing the true nature of things
I am indebted to you, for I would've never learned...
The self reigns supreme, love is a lie, a misnomer
A fictional concept, in conflict with pure selfish logic...

It's not the thought, but deeds that define you
Don't play with a heart, don't make promises...
For this is not a game, you play with someone
It may be the end, for the one who believed in you...

We all want to experience true love
But we fall short of it, a weakness of flesh...
Self-preservation, the only true instinct
The only real virtue, the only truth...
