Flat of the Blade

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Guy Garvey] I'm not good in a crowd I've got skills I can't speak of Things I've seen will chase me to the grave [Verse 2: Guy Garvey] I'm not good in a crowd I've got skills I can't speak of over there Things that I've seen will chase me to the grave [Verse 3: Guy Garvey] Led with your hands tied Fed to the sandflies You stumble the dunes Complain to the Moon [Chorus: Guy Garvey] Back's 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 love [Bridge: Guy Garvey] How does it feel The weight of the steel? The weight of the steel Of the flat of the blade How does it feel To kneel at the feet To kneel at the feet Of the choices you make [Verse 1: Guy Garvey] I'm not good in a crowd I've got skills I can't speak of Things I've seen will chase me to the grave [Chorus: Guy Garvey] Back's 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
