"The Contrarian (Demo)" lyrics - DEVIN TOWNSEND

[Intro:]
Here comes the sun and it's a violent star

[Chorus:]
Every day the fear is flowing away from me
Hands up today, the sun shines on the city
It's a hell of a world, and afraid of the unknown we are

So speak up in the quiet time
Reach out to the demon
But don't wake the demon
O contrary, wait forever
Then speak up, say
Keep your tears out of my
Play time (Play time)
It's play time (It's play time)

So contrary, fight before tearing it down
Say you're there for me (Say you're there for me)
And I always swear I'll be
Should we be high?
Shouldn't we buy?
Should we back down?
You think that we'd be grounded by now

[Chorus:]
Every day the fear is flowing away from me
Hands up today, the sun shines on the city
It's a hell of a world, and afraid of the unknown we are
(Keeps us all in line)

[Bridge:]
I want the will to fight again
And on and on and on
I want the will to fight again
If you're confused, right or wrong
And you can't go on
Say the word to me
It's okay to be vulnerable
It's okay to be

[Chorus:]
Every day the fear is flowing away from me
Hands up today, the sun shines on the city
It's a hell of a world, and afraid of the unknown we are

[Outro:]
You're king of the world, but you have to defend your heart
Because your fear is going away
