extremes

one step forward

two steps back

one bright day

three in black

i fly so high

and then i crash

i grab a slab of gold

it turns to ash

i stare into heaven

but it's just a dream

there is no middle

i'm all extreme

i ride a high

then fall into a low

i try to heal

but forget all i know

i find a comforter

it unravels at the seams

i burn my blankets

i'm all extreme

i head left

then take a sharp right

i'm either weak

or i put up a fight

i start a fire

then kill the spark

i sink into the day

and rise in the dark

i'm all extreme

there's no middle ground

i can't get out of this cycle

i'm irrevocably bound
