Habit

from Battles by Kingsley Flood

lyrics

The hard rain blew a thorn in my side
The change that came drank my wine
Stones don’t always roll, stones don’t always roll

I’m the kind that don’t look back
At the broken hearts and bones on my path
The sleepwalker never falls down, The wax wing never hits the ground

And it’s so hard to break a habit like you

Now my hands they shake for the first time
I’ve never waited on a ringing phone line
Don’t you tell a soul, don’t you dare tell a soul

It’s hard to break a habit like you

As I lay a hard soul gone
I dream the walls of Babylon
Cracked soon will fall, cracked soon will fall
