Against The Grain Lyrics - All Ages - Bad Religion

Three thousand miles of wilderness overcome by the flow 

A lonely restitution of pavement pomp and show 

I seek a thousand answers I find but one or two 

I maintain no discomfiture my path again renewed 

Against the grain 

That's where I'll stay 

Swimming upstream 

I maintain against the grain 

Here labeled as a lunatic sequestered and content 

There ignored and defeated by the government 

There's an oriented public who's magnetic force does pull 

But away from the potential of the individual

Against the grain 

That's where I'll stay 

Swimming upstream 

I maintain against the grain 

The flow is getting stronger with small increments of time 

And eddies of new ideas are increasingly hard to find 

You need all that the other has your right to seize the day 

But in all your acquisitions you will soon be swept away 

Against the grain 

That's where I'll stay 

Swimming upstream 

I maintain against the grain 

There's a common consensus and an uncomfortable cheer 

A reverberating chorus that anyone can hear 

It sings, 'Leave your cares behind you just grab tenaciously' 

This lulling sense or purpose will destroy us rapidly
