Dance With Old Habits
Lost and alive in New York City, traded the world for salt and sand
We made the move across the country, we left our friends and fears behind
We built our life and planned together and chose to fight until the bitter end
Because we were in love and that was all we needed
Until it wasn't enough to calm my hands
I could’ve married that girl
Dressed her in ribbons, diamonds and pearls
I was just one moment away from changing my life for you
She got sick and he got angry, this was life while making plans
But he wasn't there, must've been distracted or too hopeless to care, we won’t understand
The dirty sex that got me twisted, that held me close then pushed me away
Until I hit the bricks and you hit rock bottom
Now you're reaching for roots as they crumble to sand
I could've married that girl
Dressed her in ribbons, diamonds and pearls
I was just one moment away from changing my life for you
When everything's perfect ain't good enough
We dance with old habits to prove that we should
If anyone's leaving please let it be me
I should've married that girl
Drowned her in kisses and gave her my world
You see, I was just one drink away
From saving my life for you, from saving my life for you
From saving my life
