Uncombined lyrics

If you rely on what your senses tell you,

you'll be let down 'cause

sometimes they deceive you.

I sensed that you cared about me,

but it was hallucinatory.

I was in a euphoric state.

What a mistake.

Oh, love is as senseless 

as any other sense.

It's a dangerous missile 

from which there's no defense.

You can't understand it 

'cause you don't have the mind.

You're better off uncombined

than combined with a friend 

who betrays your frail trust,

combined with a love 

who soon succumbs to someone else's lust,

combined with a priest, 

doesn't know what he believes.

Stay uncombined lest you be stuck 

with one of these.

You can rely 

on someone else's judgement,

but that's not that wise 'cause

we've all got our own eyes.

I judged that your innocence

was your best form of defense.

Then I found out the judge was on the take.

What a mistake.

Oh, love is as senseless 

as any other sense.

It's a dangerous missile 

from which there's no defense.

You can't understand it 

'cause you don't have the mind.

You're better off uncombined

than combined with a teacher 

who resents you 'cause you're young,

combined with a parent 

who resents you 'cause you have fun,

combined with a girl 

who's always gotten what she wants,

combined with a boy who hasn't yet.

Stay away from these.

Who will betray you?

You wouldn't pay you to be yourself.

And when they lay in fields to retire you,

who will take off their hat?

Well, I can't relate 

just how unimportant

all the important things are

'cause when your heart is open,

it closes with a scar.

I know that you can hear me

and you don't like what I'm saying.

There's no trusting just for trusting's sake.

What a mistake.

Oh, love is as senseless 

as any other sense.

It's a dangerous missile 

from which there's no defense.

You can't understand it 

'cause you don't have the mind.

You're better off uncombined

than combined with a leader 

who never takes a stand,

combined with a dream 

when no one else gives a damn,

combined with a lifestyle 

that soon makes you its slave,

combined with anything at all.

Combined with a child 

who always must come first,

combined with a cure 

that just makes the sickness worse,

combined with a wife 

you can never please.

Stay uncombined lest you be 

stuck with one of these.

You can maintain 

your defensive shelter,

but it will be smashed down

to helter skelter.
