Paradoxical
Ignorance and stupidity surround me day to day
Criticism and hypocrites worthless with nothing good to say,
Gods and totems get on your knees and pray
Men and women molded from the same clay,
Angels and demons fight for you and me
Good guys bad guys contemplate if you will flee,
Love and hate is there for all to see
Life and death close to intimacy,
Fact or fiction can it be false or true
Start and finish read until you're through,
Negative or positive working right on cue
Rational or arbitrary the numbers the dice will do,
Salt and sugar my love is bittersweet
Peaceful or violent my passion can't be beat,
Yin or Yang without either it won't complete
Similar or opposite until we finally meet.
