"The Block" lyrics

I guess I like the pain more than I like my health
I guess I sometimes sing to try and help myself
I'm tryin' not to smile, I'm tryin' hard to laugh
I tell myself this, I tell myself that
"Love isn't the calm, no, love isn't the still"
Walking with the wind to try and catch a thrill
I can see the steeple brush against the sky
I see the place where we said our goodbyes

Yeah, it's a slow, slow break
A hard, hard shake
Slow, slow break
A hard, hard shake
Yeah, it's a slow, slow break
A hard, hard shake
Slow, slow break
A hard, hard shake

If I was a lightning, I would miss a tree
If I wasn't writin', I would miss the key
If I only wanted darkness, I'd hide into a rock
I'd never go out, I'd stay at the block
Why do I always fly when I don't have my wings?
Why do I collide with the world around me?
I guess I'm alright
I want you to sleep on the good side of me

Yeah, it's a slow, slow break
A hard, hard shake
Slow, slow break
A hard, hard shake
Yeah, it's a slow, slow break
A hard, hard shake
Slow, slow break
A hard, hard shake

So, I don't know what I'm doin' here
I woke up this spring and now I'm past the frame
I gotta get away from here
To outer space
Even if I could hold my breath
Like a balloon, float and disappear
I hope I make my way to you
Some brighter day

Wrong step, right turn
Wrong step, right turn
I want you to sleep on the good side of me
