Against Your Grain
Rebelling Against Conformity: Strangle You's Powerful Message
Lyrics
You got a grain and I'm going against it
You have a particular mindset or perspective, and I am opposing or challenging it.
You thought we were the same? You really fucking missed it
You mistakenly believed that we share similarities, but you were completely wrong.
A point of view that is happy and bright
Describing a positive and optimistic point of view.
No post traumatic stress that pulls you down with might
No lingering negative effects from past trauma weighing you down.
I don't really care that we're in the same room
I am indifferent to the fact that we are physically present in the same space.
Our outlooks on life are completely out of tune
Our perspectives on life are completely mismatched.
You're nothing like me and I'm nothing like you
We are fundamentally different, with no common ground.
I've got a bad case of the low down blues
I am experiencing a deep and pervasive sense of sadness or melancholy.
I'm going against your grain
I am actively challenging or opposing your way of thinking.
Begging and pleading to hold my hand
Pleading for emotional support or connection.
I ain't searching for peace and it's you I can't stand
I am not seeking peace, and my disdain is specifically directed towards you.
There ain't a single mold in which I fit
No predefined mold or category suits me.
But truth be told, I don't give a shit
Indifference and lack of concern for societal expectations or conformity.
You shoot for the stars swearing that you'll win
You aim high, aspiring to achieve great things.
I'm headed towards the light eager for the end
Heading towards an inevitable end, possibly death, with eagerness.
You're all just a burden to me anyways
Viewing others as burdensome or troublesome.
Now go on and let me be until I finally decay
Requesting to be left alone until eventual decay or decline.
I'm going against your grain
I am persistently opposing or challenging your way of thinking.
Greyscale skies consume my brain
My mind is engulfed in bleak and colorless thoughts.
I've got nothing but fucking hate
Feelings of intense dislike or hostility dominate my emotions.
Don't you say that we are the same
Rejecting the notion that we share similarities or commonalities.
Against your grain till my dying day
I will continue opposing your mindset until my last day.
