Go Against the Flow Songtext

von Missing Persons

You say you wanna be free, no chains to bind you,
Just come along with me, don't look behind you
You tried following, didn't get you anywhere,
Tried to conform to a society that doesn't care
What the other people think doesn't matter at all,
No need to feel like your back's against the wall
They don't wanna know, they don't wanna see,
Faking everything, chasing fantasy
If you wanna be wild, if you wanna stand tall,
Let's stand together, we can take it all

We can go against the flow 'cause I'll be there beside you,
Do just what we wanna do
We can go against the flow, the feeling deep inside you,
No one can stop us from what were gonna do (repeat)

Sad state of affairs, you've got your future spent,
That's why you laugh at those who dare to be different
To close your open mind or try to understand,
The answer waits for you but not so close at hand
So many have tried, so many have failed,
Fallen soldiers lie beside the darkened trail
I can see the sound, I can hear red,
I can feel the thoughts deep inside your head
If you wanna be wild, if you wanna stand tall,
Let's stand together, we can take it all

We can go against the flow 'cause I'll be there beside you,
Do just what we wanna do
Go against the flow, the feeling deep inside you,
No one can stop us from what were gonna do
No one can stop us from what were gonna do

Visions of blindness, conformity, rage in your head
But life without choice isn't living when freedom is dead
You wanna be wild
You wanna stand tall
Let's stand together, we can take it all!

Be there beside you,
I'll be there to guide you, to take you anywhere,
You know how much I care
You know how much I care
Go against the flow,
Go against the flow,
Go against the flow,
Go against the flow
Tall, wild,
Stand tall,
Be wild,
Stand tall,
Be wild,
From our feelings,
From inside
