Audio: Heaven and Hell by YT

Once upon a time, there was a world, a one-derful world. Before they
needed explanations that became their defining moment. Contrasts,
and differences that tore them apart. Heaven and Hell are constants,
from their privileged beginnings; they are made to appear by design, inseparable throughout. They are making the point, concerning both, divisiveness and oneness, like some binding accord carved out of stone. 

          The lover of life's not a sinner
          The ending is just a beginner
          The closer you get to the meaning
          The sooner you know that you're dreaming

All differences share oneness, for they tether each other from end to end as inseparable entities, other than their meanings, but that's not much of a stretch.

          For every moment of truth, there's confusion in life
          They say that life's a carousel
          Spinning fast, you gotta ride it well
          The world is full of Kings and Queens
          Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams
          It's Heaven and Hell, oh well
          And they'll tell you black is really white
          The moon is just the sun at night

Truth----Confusion, exactly. Whose truth? Your truth, theirs, or theirs over there. Exacting isn't it ... confused?
It would appear on the surface's light, and in the midway's dim, and in the cavernous deep, as being evil, and as being good. They are two encountering issues that each bear distinctive qualities of opposites of each other yet they bear the same spectrum to each other.

          It's Heaven and Hell, noh no
          Fool fool, you got to bleed for the dancer
          Fool fool, look for the answer

Hm? It tethers ... somewhere, between the lines, and 
off-script ... Oops, nosebleed, Id's never liked the heights, or was it depths--midway perhaps? Question Dio?

          Truth Dio ... Do they bleed there ...
