C E
Three thousand miles of wilderness, overcome by the flow
C E
A lonely restitution of pavement, pomp, and show
C E
I seek a thousand answers, I find but one or two
C E
I maintain no discomfiture, my path again renewed

(chorus: Riff 2 (3x) + Riff 1 (2x))
Against the grain
That's where I'll stay
Swimming up stream
I maintain against the grain
You're labeled as a lunatic, sequestered and content
You're ignored and defeated by the government
There's an oriented public whose magnetic force does pull
But away from the potential of the individual

(chorus)

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 sieze the day
But in all your acquisitions you will soon be swept away

(chorus)

There's a common consensus an uncomfortable cheer
A reverberated chorus that anyone can hear
It sings leave your cares behind you, just grab tenaciously
This lulling sense of purpose will destroy us rapidly

(chorus)
