Wilson D. Blake - Contradiction Lyrics

Love can hit you like a freight train
But hate'll make you blind
And grief comes like a hurricane
Wipes out everything in sight
And if you walk around here
With darkness on your mind
There'll be nothing left of you
At the end of the line

Nothing left to find
Nowhere left to hide

Strung out on highballs
In a whiskey undertow
It was hell or high water
And I had nowhere to go
When every path is darkened
And you're much too far from home
There's only one thing you can do
It's get up or get gone

Get up or get gone
Get up or get gone

So don't deny yourself the light
Don't hang those feelings out to dry
And even though this life can be unkind
Contradiction's what it means to be alive
