"The Opposite" lyrics

"The Opposite"

What will now become of us? (What will now become of us?)
The straw is coming out of us (Straw is coming out of us)
It goes back and forth (Followed by a question mark)
Lit up like a firework (Lit up like a firework)

Can we have a next contestant please?
In this logical absurdity (Logical absurdity)
While quitting unexpectedly (Quitting unexpectedly)
Opposites attract (Opposites attract)
In ash and dust and (Pockets full of emptiness)

He doesn't mean anything
He doesn't mean anything
He doesn't mean anything
He doesn't mean anything
Anything at all

Objects caught in mirrors (Caught in rear-view mirrors)
Sometimes can appear too close (Sometimes can appear too close)
Go back and forth (Followed by a question mark)
Opposites attract (Opposites can work it out)
Lit up like a firework (Lit up like a firework)
Predictably enough (Happens to the best of us)
