Half a Block to Go - John Nolan

I want apple butter, picnic and wine

All the time, yeah all the time

But nothing turned out like I planned

What happened, man?

Man, what happened?

I wanna go home, go home, go home

Sad incessant second guesses clawing at my mind again

I’m analyzing every word, I’m questioning my every step

I made it this far, now these insecurities keep creeping in

They gather round and smile at me like old familiar friends

Still I’m singing

Half a block to go until I get back home

Half a block away but it’s miles before

I’ll know if this was worth it, if this was worth it

They say if you’re alive it’s better to smile, so I’ll try

And tomorrow when I’m leaving I’ll stop myself from thinking, «where did I go

wrong?»

I know I had some reason for doing what I did

Yeah, there’s a reason that I’m in this place

I wish I could remember, remember what it is

Only half a block to go until I get back home

Half a block away but it’s miles before

I’ll know if this was worth it

It’s only half a block to go until I get back home

Half a block away but it’s miles before

I’ll know if this was worth it

All this time spent moving forward

Going backwards in my mind

Looking for a piece of something lost

Terrif‌ied of what I’ll f‌ind

Half a block to go until I get back home

Half a block away but it’s miles before

I’ll know if this was worth it

Half a block to go until I get back home

Half a block away but it’s miles before

I’ll know if this was worth it, if this was worth it
