The Riot's Gone Songtext

von Santogold

I've been looking for a fight
All the trouble that I know
Trying to lose the world inside
But it's got no place to go

Oh, I'm only dangerous
At the whim of my command
I've been searching for an angle
For a cause I can defend

Oh, take me home, let me go all day
Just be here 'til I know
'Til I know that the riot's gone
The riot's gone away

I've been haunted all my life
On the brink of something close
People know that I write
Know I'm grappling with a ghost

Oh, I'm only dangerous
And I'm deafened by the fright
Waiting for the day I'm able
And I said it all this way

Oh, take me home, let me go all day
Just be here 'til I know
'Til I know that the riot's gone
The riot's gone away
