11 blocks
Wrabel Lyrics

11 blocks from my door to your doorstep
Despite living 11 blocks away from your house, I feel like we're too close, especially after three years of being apart.

Three years later and it feels too close
Time has passed, but the proximity still feels claustrophobic and overwhelming.

I thought I broke the last of that breakdown
I thought I had finally moved on from our past and put away all the grief and pain.

The morning I sold your winter coat
That one morning when I sold your coat was one of the last remnants of our relationship, and I thought I could finally move on.

It doesn't feel right when I'm grabbing a coffee
Even my daily routine of grabbing coffee feels off without you by my side.

The same old spot, but I'm on my own
The familiar coffee shop feels different and lonely without you there with me.

I feel okay in the day, but at nighttime
During the day, I can manage without thinking of you, but once night comes, all the memories come flooding back.

You know how I get when I'm alone
I become overwhelmed and cannot stop thinking about you whenever I am alone.

'Cause my mind won't stop, it's just 11 blocks
I cannot stop thinking about you, and the fact that we are just 11 blocks away is driving me crazy.

I know that you're home
I know you're home, and the thought of it is consuming me even though I should move on.

'Cause it's Friday night, you're not that type
It's Friday night, and I know you don't go out, so the fact that you're home won't leave my mind.

14 blocks from your door to this party
I am 14 blocks away from the party you're at, and I can't stop thinking about it.

I caught myself counting on the way
I started counting the blocks on my way to the party, another indication of my obsession with you.

And right when I stepped in the door to the party
The moment I arrived at the party, I realized I couldn't handle being there, knowing you were close by.

I stepped outside to grab a smoke
I stepped out of the party to smoke, trying to calm my racing thoughts and anxiety about seeing you.

But my mind won't stop, it's just 14 blocks
My mind won't give me a break, no matter where I go, including 14 blocks away from where you are.

Someone stop me, please, from hurting myself
I need someone to stop me from this obsessive behavior of hurting myself by obsessing over you and your whereabouts.

'Cause I'm two blocks away and you're hurting my health
The fact that I am two blocks away from you is causing me harm and taking a toll on my mental and physical health.

And I met someone and I swear I'm in love
I have met someone new, and I truly believe I am in love with them.

But I'm two blocks away and you're just like a drug
Despite being in love with someone else, the fact that I am so close to you is like being under the influence of a drug.

I got somebody waiting for me at home
I have someone waiting for me at home, and I need to let go of my obsession with you and move on.

Somebody stop me
I need someone to help me stop this obsessive behavior and move forward.

I should be going home
I know I should be going home to the person who loves me, rather than obsessing over someone who doesn't.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
