Track Name: Against The Grain
I'm asking questions time and time again
In a race that never ever ends
I'm waiting for a bus that never shows
I'm opening I gotta let it go

I'm searching for a place that don't exist
Need a map to find the end of my nose
Hanging from my limbs in the swaying breeze
I'm opening I gotta let it go

In my life the good and bad they come and go
Highs and lows are often all that show
Know it's time to go against the grain
Or it will kill me down below
To live in comfort and know it's warm embrace
Reminds me only to quicken up the pace
Know it's time to go against the grain
Or it will kill me down below

It's singing a song never heard
All of sudden I know every word
And I know there's no direction home
It's right here where all the wild things grow

In my life the good and bad they come and go
Highs and lows are often all that show
Know it's time to go against the grain
Or it will kill me down below
To live in comfort and know it's warm embrace
Reminds me only to quicken up the pace
Know it's time to go against the grain
Or it will kill me down below
Track Name: Open Up Slowly
Don't lie sallow in the fertile fields that you call home
Don't stand dormant in the corridor in the time of need
Don't stay silent amongst the raucous chorus of your friends
Cos don't you know the squeaky wheel gets the grease

Been lying low, making mountains out of mole hills in your mind
Bad feelings grow, so they're manifesting all the time
But dry your eyes girl there's something magic about your soul
Don't you know the squeaky wheel gets the grease

Don't you worry that you're in this game all on your own
I'm right beside you, I'll catch you if you slip or trip or fall
So take my hand and we'll walk from this darkened room for good
And don't you know the squeaky wheel gets the grease

Most people manage to live their lives where dreams remain their dreams
But that's so selfish, to leave them where they simply can't be seen
So give it all girl, as you open up slowly to the world
And make some noise, cos the squeaky wheel gets the grease
Yeah make some noise, cos the sqeaky wheel gets the grease
Yeah make some noise, cos the sqeaky wheel gets the grease
