Contradictions

You're living life to die
You'll fall in love and cry
You think that time has stopped
Yet the world keeps on spinning

You've fallen down a hole
You've sold away your soul
You want a new beginning
Yet wish that it'd all end

You listen, and don't learn
You let your emptiness churn
You've chilled your heart and mind
Yet yearn for understanding company

You believe in nothing higher
You see faces in the fire
You can't explain a thing
Yet have brought upon yourself such contradictions
