Old Habits Die Hard
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I thought I shook myself free
You see, I bounce back quicker than most
But i'm half delirious, Is too mysterious
You walk through my walls like a ghost
And I take everyday at a time
I'm proud as a Lion in his Lair
Now there's no denying it, a note to crying it
You're all tangled up in my head
Old habits die hard
Old soldiers just fade away
Old habits die hard
Harder than November rain
Old habits die hard
Old soldiers just fade away
Old habits die hard
Hard enough to feel the pain
We haven't spoken in months
You see, I've been counting the days
I dream of such humanities, such insanities
I'm lost like a kid and I'm late
But I've never taken your coats
You see, haven't no block on my phone
I act like an addict, I just got to have it
I never can leave it alone
Old habits die hard
Old soldiers just fade away
Old habits die hard
Harder than November rain
Old habits die hard
Old soldiers just fade away
Old habits die hard
Hard enough to feel the pain
And I can't give you up
Can't leave you alone
And its so hard, so hard
And hard enough to feel the pain
Old habits die hard
Old soldiers just fade away
Old habits die hard
Harder than November rain
Old habits die hard
Old soldiers just fade away
Old habits die hard
Hard enough to feel the pain
