Against The Grain

You need not, to climb mountaintops

You need not, to cross the sea

You need not, to find a cure

for everything that makes you weak.



You need not to reach for the stars,

when life becomes so dark

and when the wind

does blow against the grain

you must follow your heart

you must follow your heart



when all your friends

have come and gone

the sun no longer shines

and the happiness for which you long

is washed away, like an oceans tide

when all the hard times, outweigh the good

and all your words are misunderstood



when the day seems lost from the start

you must follow your heart

you must follow your heart



If you feel, you paid the price

and your wounds should cease to heal

and everything you love in life,

spins like a winding wheel

if you should wake, to find you're abandoned.

and the road you travel, leads to a dead end



when death creeps in, to play it's part.

you must you follow your heart

you must follow your heart
