Against the Grain
I saw the things that could be
And now they're gone to stay
You know that I can't take this
I can't watch this go away
It's not the things you told me
It's not the times you stayed
I know I fucked up
I can't make this go away
She kneels to pray
Things gone astray
Against the grain
It wasn't what it should be
It wasn't all the ways
I learnt to watch what's coming
Now I know it comes my way
At times we lost it all
And all the times we've went astray
We knew that we fucked up
And now I know there's just no way
She kneels to pray
Things gone astray
Against the grain
I've counted
I've counted all the ways
It's spinning heads today
You say there is no way
It works against the grain
I saw the things that could be
And now they're gone to stay
You knew that I can't take this
I can't watch this float away
It's not the things you told me
It's not the times you stayed
I know I fucked up, I can't make this go away
She kneels to pray
Things gone astray
Against the grain
I've counted
I've counted all the ways
It's spinning heads today
You say there is no way
It works against the grain
