Against the Grain

歌詞

Three thousand miles of wilderness, overcome by the flow A lonely restitution of pavement, pomp and show I seek a thousand answers, I find but one or two I maintain no discomfiture, my path again renewed Against the grain That's where I'll stay Swimming upstream I maintain against the grain Here labeled as lunatic, sequestered and content There ignored and defeated by the government There's an oriented public who's magnetic force does pull But away from the potential of the individual Against the grain That's where I'll stay Swimming upstream I maintain against the grain The flow is getting stronger with smaller increments of time And eddies of new ideas are increasingly hard to find You need all that the other has, it's your right to seize the day But in all your acquisitions you will soon be swept away Against the grain That's where I'll stay Swimming upstream I maintain against the grain There's a common consensus and an uncomfortable cheer A reverberating chorus that anyone can hear It sings leave your cares behind you, just grab tenaciously This lulling sense or purpose will destroy us rapidly Against the grain That's where I'll stay Swimming upstream I maintain against the grain Against the grain Against the grain Against the grain
