“Paradox” is a song written by Elena, a young artist from Washington, DC. The theme of the song is that everyday she encounters conflicting feelings that switch between wanting to be alone, to wanting to spend all her time with someone. Each verse conveys an example of these clashing feelings and in...
Verse 1:
I wish it would rain
I wish it was dark
To match the feelings in my heart
But I don't see no thunder clouds above me (no)
I wish there was sun
Shining bright
'Cuz all the sadness don't feel right
But I can't take my mind off somebody (no)
Chorus:
I want you but I don't
I wanna be alone
But when you're not with me
Then I start to feel weak
One day I'm up
The next I'm down
And I can't seem to turn it off
I'm living in a paradox
Verse 2:
I could go out
Or I could stay
It doesn't matter either way
Whatever I do tonight, I'm lonely (oh)
I stare at the moon
I gaze at the stars
How come heaven looks so far? (yeah)
I wish I wasn't lost in my head, if only (oh)
Chorus:
I want you but I don't (I don't)
I wanna be alone (alone)
But when you're not with me (with me)
Then I start to feel weak
One day I'm up
The next I'm down
And I can't seem to turn it off
I'm living in a paradox
Bridge:
Why not now? (not now)
Before time runs out
Tell me how you feel (how you feel)
So that we can make it real
Chorus:
I want you but I don't (I don't)
I wanna be alone (alone)
But when you're not with me (with me)
Then I start to feel weak
One day I'm up
The next I'm down
And I can't seem to turn it off
I'm living in a paradox
I'm living in a paradox
I'm living in a paradox
