Against the Grain

Stop pretending like you know it all From the top of my lungs I'm begging you all, please stop Cause even though I'm 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 the one to break the mold and One voice and you could hear a needle fall Lo and behold Like an island lost in a stream It's a nightmare that you call a dream Cause you were raised to be honest now look at yourself Can you righteously stand to defend Your truth? From a slumber the world awoke From the top of her lungs With tears in her eyes she spoke Cause that was all she knew how to Words of fire stay cold Does it matter if you win the world? If to win you've lost your soul Live a life or live a dream One girl against them all Just the one to break the mold and One voice and you could hear a needle fall Lo and behold Like an island lost in a stream It's a nightmare that you call a dream Cause 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 Cause you were raised to be honest Now look at you defending your ways Your choice Your truth
