Against The Grain

I have tried but it's hard to fight it

I can't just watch as it falls apart

If we could break the mold

Make it in from the cold

Lose your mind, never lose your heart

And i don't mind working hard for it

I'll bend the hands 'til the space appears

I'll move the pieces until we all fit

From near to far and from far to near

And i know

That i'm going against the grain

And i know this makes no sense

The changes i've tried to make

They make no difference

But i know that i'll try again

Although it's so hard

Hard

Hard

Given time it'll finally focus

And in a moment that's been and gone

And in the afterglow

From my head to my soul

I can see all i have ignored

And i don't mind working hard for it

I'll bend the hands 'til the space appears

I'll move the pieces until we all fit

From near to far and from far to near

And i know

That i'm going against the grain

And i know this makes no sense

The changes i've tried to make

They make no difference

But i know that i'll try again

Although it's so hard

Hard

Hard

If life's so short then we're wasting time

Love is the last thing on our minds

It's so simple but so hard to see

And you are not alone in this

Sense of loss and loneliness

Take your shoes off run towards the sea

And i know

That i'm going against the grain

And i know this makes no sense

The changes i've tried to make

They make no difference

But i know that i'll try again

Although it's so hard

Hard

Hard

I know the sun will keep on shining down

As long as you're around
