Polar Extremes

Am I imagining Or is it real All this confusion That I feel This truth and fiction My mind betrayed Wrapped in the mystery Of the present day but Take off those rose colored glasses All is not as it seems Polar extremes What's light is dark and what's dark is light What's clear as day is as black as night What's thought is said and what's said is done What's won is lost and what's lost is won Contradictions are tearing me down They're building me up and they're turning me 'round How can I live with these polar extremes They're getting me down My mind adrift On a shipwrecked shore My soul is searching For something more My eyes betray me The past not far away What I thought was true Vanished in the haze So take off those rose colored glasses All is not as it seems Polar extremes What's light is dark and what's dark is light What's clear as day is as black as night What's thought is said and what's said is done What's won is lost and what's lost is won Contradictions are tearing me down They're building me up and they're turning me 'round How can I live with these polar extremes They're getting me down
