Against the Grain Lyrics by Seventh Wonder

Tiara

2018

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
[Chorus]
One girl against them all
Just the one to break the mold
And one voice and you can 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
[Instrumental break]
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
[Chorus]
One girl against them all
Just the one to break the mold
And one voice and you can 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
[Instrumental Break]
When our vision was blurred
And our hearts led astray
She opened our eyes for us
We must gather the greatest of minds we can find
There must be a way to survive
[Instrumentals]
[Chorus]
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
