Flat Of The Blade Lyrics - Guy Garvey

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 build for my family a bulletproof room 

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
