MASSIVE ATTACK - Flat Of The Blade lyrics

rate me

I'm not good in a crowd,

I got skills I can't speak of

Things I've seen will chase me

To the grave

I'm not good in a crowd,

I got skills I can't speak of

Over there

Things that I've seen

Will chase me to the grave

Led with your hands tied

Fetters and flies

You stumble the dunes

Complain to the moon

Backs to the wheel

There's granite to shove

Take it

They give it

So rivet for rivet

I will pilfer my family a bulletproof love

How does it feel

The weight of the steel?

The weight of the steel

The flat of the blade

How does it feel

To kneel at defeat?

To kneel at defeat

At the choices you make

I'm not good in a crowd,

I got skills I can't speak of

Things I've seen will chase me

To the grave

Backs to the wheel

There's granite to shove

Take it

They give it

And rivet for rivet

I will build for my family a bulletproof love
