about

Although a couple of the songs from Little by Little were written during the Reservations sessions, Habits was the first completely new song we worked on. The words and the atmosphere of the song set the tone for rest of the album really, with its mix of light and shade, openness and claustrophobia.

The song tells the story a guy coming to terms with getting older. He feels as though he’s losing himself as life keeps knocking him around. But instead of trying to live through it and understand it he lashes out at his partner and drags her down with him.

lyrics

I got wounds
I got fears
And a way of talking to you
I got moods
And I might be stalking
These moods, these moods
They turn into sparks that light up and burn a hole in you
That light up and burn a hole in you

I got habits that gather their strength in the dark
And these words and potions they pull us apart
I got worries and maybes that are turning into sparks
That light up and burn a hole in you
That light up and burn a hole in you

Say girl please wait a while
Just gather your thoughts and see
Think it through won’t you wait a while
Something’s wrong

I got wounds
I got fears
And a way of talking to you
I got tears
And I might be stalking
These moods, these moods
They turn into sparks that light up and burn a hole in you
That light up and burn a hole in you

Say girl please wait a while
Just gather your thoughts and see
Think it through won’t you wait a while
Something’s wrong with me
I see you come outside and roam

Get outside
And walk outside
And be outside
And led outside
And warm outside
I roam

I grow silent I get weary
My thoughts in a haze
You got a way and a walk that keeps me afraid
I got low tense and pretence that are eating up my days
And together they burn a hole in you
Together they burn a hole in you
