Matt & Kim - Block After Block lyrics
rate meFade in)
Now this is all me, now this is all me
Watch out for late phone calls
Wheat paste and concrete walls
Go too far, live too long
Time's too short, right and wrong
Block after block,
Block after block
Roll down gates, look the same
Different trips, different trains
Hey friends break in the back door
And turn it up while the lights are out
Eyes closed and shouting right now
Lights turn on and dark turns up
Side by side dream bigger
Next in line it's late
Now this is all me
Now this is all me
Eat when you're hungry and
Sleep when you're slipping like
Tired dogs rest their paws
Today we show our flaws
Block after block,
Block after block
It's one way now on Wythe
What was left, now is right
Hey friends we'll jump the turnstiles
And cut it down while the lights are out
Eyes closed and shouting right now
Lights turn on and dark turns up
Side by side, dream bigger
Next in line it's late
Now this is all me
Now this is all me
(Twice)
I think it takes a pile of bricks
For us to make a home
And I'm not sure but I hear
Mountains grow from just a stone
Block after block,
Block after block
Everything I've learned
Every step I took
And street I walked
Lights turn on and dark turns up
Side by side dream bigger
Next in line it's late
Now this is all me,
Now this is all me
(Twice)
