[Silence]<\/p>\n

[Instrumental, Guitar, Piano, Organ, Synth, Bass, Percussion, Drums]<\/p>\n

[Intro]
\n[Instrumental Intro: Clean Guitar Arpeggios, Rolling Bass, Tight Drums, Atmospheric Synth]
\n[Spoken Vocal]
\nPut it side by side…<\/p>\n

Look at the difference…<\/p>\n

Then ask yourself\u2014<\/p>\n

What happens…<\/p>\n

When opposites collide?<\/p>\n

(Where do you reside?)<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nJust suppose…
\n(Juxtapose)
\nTake a position
\n(Be the solution)<\/p>\n

Love and hate
\n(… there’s no debate)
\nJust suppose…
\n(Juxtapose)<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nBlack beside the white can show
\nShadows where the bright lights glow
\nNear and far can change the view
\nOld beside the something new<\/p>\n

[Pre-Chorus]
\nLook left
\n(Look right)
\nDifferent
\n(Contrasting sight)<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nJuxtapose
\n(Place it near)
\nWhat you thought
\n(Becomes clear)<\/p>\n

Love and hate
\n(Choice and fate)
\nLight and dark
\n(Leave a mark)<\/p>\n

Two positions
\n(Two directions)
\nSide by side
\n(Reflections)<\/p>\n

Just suppose…
\n(Juxtapose)
\nTake a position
\n(Be the solution)<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nCalm beside the rushing storm
\nCold beside the something warm
\nTruth beside a point of view
\nMakes you question what you knew<\/p>\n

[Instrumental]
\n[Electric Guitar Solo: Alternating Clean and Distorted Tones, Melodic Bass, Syncopated Drums]<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nLove
\n(Hate)<\/p>\n

Hope
\n(Fear)<\/p>\n

Near
\n(Far)<\/p>\n

Here
\n(There)<\/p>\n

Put them side by side…<\/p>\n

What do you see?<\/p>\n

(Reality)<\/p>\n

[Breakdown]
\n[Acoustic Guitar, Bass, Sparse Percussion]
\nJust suppose…<\/p>\n

There’s a difference<\/p>\n

In the reference<\/p>\n

Juxtapose<\/p>\n

[Final Refrain]
\nJust suppose…
\n(Juxtapose)
\nTake a position
\n(Be the solution)<\/p>\n

Love and hate
\n(… there’s no debate)
\nJust suppose…
\n(Juxtapose)<\/p>\n

[Final Chorus]
\nJuxtapose
\n(Place it near)
\nMake the difference
\n(Disappearing fear)<\/p>\n

Take a position
\n(Make a choice)
\nFind a solution
\n(Use your voice)<\/p>\n

Love and hate
\n(Choice and fate)
\nSide by side
\n(See the divide)<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nJust suppose…
\n(Juxtapose)
\nTake a position
\n(Be the solution)<\/p>\n

Love and hate
\n(… there’s no debate)
\nJust suppose…
\n(Juxtapose)<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\n[Instrumental Outro: Guitar Arpeggios, Warm Bass, Organ Swells, Saxophone Harmony]<\/p>\n

Just suppose…<\/p>\n

Juxtapose…<\/p>\n

Side by side…<\/p>\n

Now decide.<\/p>\n

Take a position…<\/p>\n

Be the solution.<\/p>\n

(Put love above)<\/p>\n
