Flat Of The Blade
Massive Attack

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
