“LOVE’S AN ILLUSION”
(N. MICHALAK)

They can steal your heart
Fill it with undyin’ passion
And then rip it all to shreds

They can change your world
Fill it with a new meanin’
And then crush it with their own words

(Chorus)
  It can’t solve your problems
  It can’t save the world
  Nor can it last forever
  ‘Cause love’s nothin’ but an illusion
  Yes, love’s an illusion

You give ‘em a piece of your soul
Tryin’ to fill your emptiness
But then it just leaves one big hole

You show ‘em all the way on in
Hopin’ it will never ever end
But then it all comes crashing down

(Chorus)
  It can’t solve your problems
  It can’t save the world
  Nor can it last forever
  ‘Cause love’s nothin’ but an illusion
  Yes, love’s an illusion

(Chorus)
  It can’t solve your problems
  It can’t save the world
  Nor can it last forever
  ‘Cause love’s nothin’ but a death trap
  Yes, love’s an illusion

  What’s it worth but a broken heart
  What’s it worth but a shattered soul
  It’s all just a foolish dream
  ‘Cause love’s nothin’ but an illusion
  Yes, love’s nothin’ but an illusion
  Yes, nothin’ but an illusion
  Yes, love’s an illusion

The only note to make on this one is that it was originally titled "LOVE'S A DEATH TRAP".  It was even more of a satire on the "love song", but I figured this version was less of a satire, lyrics-wise.  Although, it would still start out like a balld of sorts, then go into full metal mode later on.
