One Block Away

I often think of things I can't erase Will we watch what we say? We had the biggest dreams along the way But they came to a sudden halt They twisted and decayed Too many shots in vain And all that's left is the pain I shut down, I never noticed Too proud to say I'm broken 'Cause I never accepted that you died I always thought you'd be one block away I know now its a dream I tell myself Forever thankful for the time we spent And when I'm feeling broken I hear your voice inside Now it feels like a distant memory Words used as weapons haunt me everyday We grew apart, it hurts so much to say A part of me left that day One block away Caught up in our own lives Away from the spotlight It was easier to run away Than to stick around and face the pain Live the lie, die inside You in the physical, me in my mind Holding back apologies and letting time go by Until tomorrow never came And I never go to say goodbye I always thought you'd be one block away I know now its a dream I tell myself Forever thankful for the time we spent And when I'm feeling broken I hear your voice inside Now it feels like a distant memory Words used as weapons haunt me everyday We grew apart, it hurts so much to say A part of me left that day One block away No longer home I'm on my own All alone A part of me left that day One block away I often think of things I can't erase Will we watch what we say?
