The prompt was "against the grain"

lyrics

Against The Grain (Week 4)

V1
Head on, I gotta face this life
Walking through fields of pain
Through the loneliness, unfaithfulness
Walking AGAINST THE GRAIN

V2
I see the way you're looking at me now
Wondering if I'll ever if I'll ever be the same
Well I've seen despair & the world don't care
When you're walking against the grain

CHORUS
And I don't know, how to let it go
When I can feel my own demise
And I can't tell, if I'm in heaven or hell
Unless I'm looking in your eyes

V3
One of these days, I'm gonna set you free
Living through it all has been inhumane
In my field of view, I need a break through
Walking against the grain

CHORUS
And I don't know, how to let it go
When I can feel my own demise
And I can't tell, if I'm in heaven or hell
Unless I'm looking in your eyes

Magdalena

She is a visionary, mad scientist, she creates the music and image with shadows and light. It's lovable and menacing at the same time. Chris Taylor
