Opposites Attach

Lyrics

War and peace Profit and poverty Open and closed Slave and free Covert and overt Fear and trust Loud and still Ash and dust

They don’t collide, they intertwine- Into the outer Opposites attract in time

Love and hate Push and pull Tender and sharp Empty and full Sun and shadow Rise and fall Silk and iron Nothing and all

They twist, they tangle, never match- Into the outer But opposites attract

Truth and lie High and low Fast and slow Yes and no Order and chaos Knife and thread Breath and silence Living and dead

Not black and white, but every crack- Into the outer Where opposites attract

Sacred and broken Flesh and flame Known and nameless Pride and shame Stone and water Grace and lack What pulls apart Still circles back

The tether holds, the lines collapse- Into the outer When opposites attract

Into the outer When opposites attract
