Adharma
Adharma is the Sanskrit antonym of Dharma. It means 'that which is not in accord with the Dharma'. Connotations include unnaturalness, wrongness, evil, immorality, wickedness, and vice.
Description
Adharma (Sanskrit: अधर्म) is derived from combining "a" with "dharma", which literally implies "not-dharma". It means immoral, sinful, wrong, wicked, unjust, unbalanced, or unnatural.
Ariel Glucklich translates Adharma as chaos, disorder, non-harmonious and explains it as opposite of Dharma. Glucklich states that adharma isn't the binary opposite of Dharma or absolutely unethical in Indian philosophy. Rather it is a complex functional subjective term just like dharma, with shades of meaning, that depends on circumstances, purpose and context.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
*First Verse*
PLEASE OPEN YOUR EYES
So then I can breathe
JUST STRAY FROM THE SKIES
Talk to me
TALK TO MEEE
Breathe
And then we'll see-ee
*First Chorus-Intro*
Look into my eyes
AND TELL ME WHY
When you look into my reflections,
Will you see how much I've changed,
Will you See you've made a connection,
Or will you be just as deranged
Look into my eyes
AND TELL ME WHY

Or will you be just as deranged
Look into my eyes
