I thought I shook myself free
You see, I bounce back quicker than most
But I'm half delirious, it's 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
And 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
Hard enough to feel the pain

We haven't spoken in months
You see, I've been counting the days
I dream of such inanities, such insanities
I'm lost like a kid in a maze
Oh, but I've never taken your calls
You see, I put a 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 it's so hard, so hard
And it's hard enough to feel the pain

Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
Harder than November rain
Old habits die hard
Old soldiers just fade away
Old habits die hard...
