Half a Block

Sixteen heartbeats works for everyone
If I return dying, could I expect enough?
You know it seems to me at least it seems to me, now
To be a little out of reach

And all the while, I can't get over
How all my time, I can't do it over
And as my spirit grows colder and colder
Yeah, salvation I know her

I'm just a half a block away from salvation
I'm just a half a block away from it all
I'm just a half a block away from redemption
And I'll be damned if I can make it that far

Yeah, I know how you feel
I've lived there for years, it's cold and it's real
You better get on, out the loop 'cos the loop's gonna get ya'
You better get on, out the loop

I'm just a half a block away from salvation
I'm just a half a block away from it all
I'm just a half a block away from redemption
And I'll be damned if I can make it that far

And all the while I can't get over you
How all my time, I can't do it over
And as my spirit grows colder and colder
Yeah, salvation I know her

I'm just a half a block away from salvation
I'm just a half a block away from it all
I'm just a half a block away from redemption
And I'll be damned if I can make it that far
