Matt & Kim - Block After Block Lyrics

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

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
