What kind of mess do we have here?
Right is wrong, and right just isn’t clear,
Where’s the compassion in people’s lives today?
We want to bring them in, but we push them all away.
Should we settle mediocrity?
What do we mean by Christianity?
We throw our words around, thinking we’re doing great,
Love is what we need; it goes against the grain it goes,
It goes…
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
We think we know; I would rather go…
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
Against the grain.
Against the grain.
Some say screaming is all you have to do, but I say that’s a lie that I can see right through,
Words mean nothing until you show you care,
Look them in the eye, yeah; you know there’s something there.
What kind of mess do we have here?
Wrong is right; right just isn’t clear,
If you want to be a rebel, well, maybe now’s the time to understand the truth and throw down all the lies,
And go…
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
We think we know; I would rather go…
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
Against the grain,
Against the grain.
