They always said you were unhealthy
Wouldn't be there for me, but I knew different

They always said that you would break me,
Bend me and forsake me, I wouldn't listen

I knew better than that, I knew just where it's at
And it was, but it's not anymore
And I'm not as sure as I was before

Now I got a bad habit I just can't break
I can't shake it, it's already much too late,
I'm standing naked with my beautiful mistake
A b ad havit and it just won't go away

You were magical and mystic
Tangled up and twisted and oh so tragic
Maybe that was the attraction
Drove me to distraction, but I had to have it

I got carried away, what else can I say?
There I was, I still am
And I don't understand why I'm stuck in the palm of your hand

I got a bad habit I just can't break
I can't shake it, It's already much too late
I'm standing naked with my beautiful mistake
A bad habit and it just won't go away, oh

Why do I need you like this?
Why don't I try to resist?
I can't just flip a switch and watch you fade

Now I got a bad habit I just can't break,
I can't shake it, it's already much too late
I'm standing naked with my beautiful mistake
A bad havit and it just won't go away
Now I got a bad habit I just can't quit
I can't kick it, I want more and more of it
I'm standing naked with my beautiful mistake
A bad habit, hope it never goes away
I just can't quit, I can't kick it
