Lyrics

CONTRADICTION

I can say I love you and I can -- really believe I do
But when you --turn your back -- will I run a knife through?
I can --look you in the eye and speak sayings wise
And then --turn around and do the very things I despise

I am a CONTRADICTION x2

We can talk about belief -- like pie-in-the-sky
But how I really act is what you oughta measure me by
If I would be -- an apple tree -- then red shiny apples is what you should see
If I would be -- banana tree -- better have bananas hanging off of me
Check out my fruit --check out my fruit

'cause I am a CONTRADICTION x4

I can talk the talk --I can fake the walk
I can even believe that I really believe
But when I leave you -- what do I leave you -- with?

check out my fruit check out my fruit


'cause I am a CONTRADICTION
