Comes to Blows Songtext

von Grant Lee Buffalo

Whittled me down
'Til I was
Kindlin' for the fire
'Cause I might've found
Out for myself
In a while

Round and round it goes
Soon it comes to blows
School house
Crushed the kid
Snuff his
Will to flower

But now that the answer has
Been offered oh
So eloquently

Pummelled you hard
'Til you began
To settle in
By the end of the day
Even they took
You as one of them

Round and round it goes
Soon it comes to blows
You know in the streets below the
High rise
Is the ghetto

Now that the answer has
Been offered oh
So eloquently

Speaker of the house
I'll never be as powerful as you
As I've only known
The humble work that
Which these hands can do

But soon it comes to blows
In this moment fragile
Unearthing Wade and Roe while in
The inner city
It's a battle
Oh Creation Myth
And gun control are
All up for grabs
And on the mantel
It hits a little too close
To home for most
I can turn it around
But I can turn the channel

Now that the answer has
Been offered oh
So eloquently

Oh, Oh, Oh,
Oh I think I'll just drift away slowly
Oh I think I'll just drift away slowly
Oh I think I'll just drift away slowly
Oh I think I'll just drift away slowly
Oh I think I'll just drift away slowly
Oh I think I'll just drift away slowly
Oh I think I'll just drift away slowly
