Against The Grain
Stop pretending like you know it all!
From the top of my lungs I am begging you all, please stop!
Because even though I am just a child
Still I see this isn’t real
A computer could never love, a machine could never feel
Live a life, or live a dream?
One girl against them all, just one to break the mold and
One voice you could hear a needle fall
Like an island lost in a stream
It’s a nightmare that you call a dream
You were raised to be honest now look at yourself
Can you righteously stand to defend your truth?
From a slumber, the world awoke
When from the top of her lungs with tears in her eyes she spoke
Because that was all she knew how to
Words of fire say we're cold
Does it matter if you win the world, when to win you lost your soul?
Live a life or live a dream?
One girl against them all, just one to break the mold and
One voice you could hear a needle fall
Like an island lost in a stream
It’s a nightmare that you call a dream
You were raised to be honest, now look at you
Defending your ways, your choice, your truth
When our vision was blurred, and our hearts lead astray
She opened our eyes for us
We must gather the greatest of minds we can find
There must be a way to survive
One girl against them all, lo and behold
Like an island lost in a stream
It’s a nightmare that you call a dream
You were raised to be honest, now look at you
Defending your ways, your choice, your truth
