Bad Religion - Against The Grain Lyrics
Three thousand miles of wildernessOvercome 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,Thats where Ill stay,Swimming upstream,I maintain against the grainHere labelled as lunatic,Sequestered and content,There ignored and defeatedBy the government,Theres an oriented public whos magneticForce does pull,But away from the potential of the individual,Against the grain.....The flow is getting strongerWith smaller increments of time and eddiesOf new ideas are increasingly hard to find,You need all that the other has,Your right to seize the dayBut in all your acquisitions you will soonBe swept away,Against the grain......Theres a common consensusAnd 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 willDestroy us rapidly,Against the grain.....
