It could well be about prostitution, but i interpreted it as something more general in that its about playing games and lying to girls and abuse them for sex without being emotionally attached. I love the interchange between the soft singing of what he says to the girl "Me and you, we are the light.. give me your hand" and the screaming in his true emotions "You're the joke". Its pretty much summed up in the line "how sacred is the web that must be spun" as we think of romance as pure and yet in this song its all about the sexual conquest -"Make us proud for days". The idea of manipulation and superiority in being emotionally detached in physical relationships comes up a bit in Dillinger's music.
