Creature of Habit EP Lyrics
Creature of Habit
I’m a creature of habit when I’m feeling low
Asking myself questions I already know the answers to
I’ve been trying to sleep on my other side
I’ve been trying to keep you off my mind
I wish I had another face in front of mine
I wish I had some other way to pass the time
I wish I were in love then I’d have something to do
I wish I had someone to pay attention to
So I could stop thinking of you
I’m a creature of habit when I’m feeling good
Calling up a lover when I’m in the mood and wine has helped
Asking if they’re busy, if they’re alone
Asking if they love me so I don’t have to say it myself
I wish I had another face in front of mine
I wish I had some other way to pass the time
I wish I were in love then I’d have something to do
I wish I had someone to pay attention to
So I could stop thinking of you
Eating Chips
I got distracted by the hole in my shirt
Slow dancing with the hole in my chest
Chip on my shoulder and a few in my mouth
Wasting time wondering what you’re thinking about
What day is it? It think it’s morning
Am I bored or am I boring?
I bet you took things for granted
I bet you five bucks I did too
I’m gonna stay a little longer
The next time and every time I do nothing with you
You got predictions and a mug in your hand
Trash talking with the dog on the couch
Cards on the floor and a few in her mouth
Wasting time wondering what she’s thinking about
What day is it? Wednesday morning?
Why didn’t he read the warnings
I bet you took things for granted
I bet you $1200 I did too
I’m gonna hold you a little longer
The next time and every time I see you
When is the next time I’ll see you?
It’ll Get Tired Too
This feeling is natural of course it comes oh it sure does in all of us
I know it’s hard when it comes twice as fast as the
answer when you’re thinking bout the meaning of life
Fear is here it always is, showed up soon as we were kids
Shake it’s hand and let it play, it’ll get tired too and go away
This feeling is natural of course it shows oh sure we know it would
I know it hurts when it shows up when things
were great or you were letting go of something good
Pain is here it always is, showed up soon as life did
Let it pick a song to play, it’ll get tired too and go away
I am terrified of dying, I am terrified of pain
But without thought or feeling, how would I know the joy of the rain on my face?
Life is here at least for now, showed as soon as stars came out
Let us dance to the song it plays, until it’s time for us to go away
Who Wants Takeout?
How do you sit so calm so still
Knowing time is bound to kill
You me and the sun someday
You always got the right thing to say
Like “I guess shit happens but whatcha gonna do?”
How do you sit in silence like that
No need to fill the room with chat
You me and your two roommates
Watchin a fan with nothing to say
But “If I got takeout would you want some too?”
How do you know that we’ll be fine
No way to but your hand’s in mine
You me and the world someday
Maybe then I’ll know what to say
Like “I don’t know and that’s just fine we’ll figure it out some other time”
Studio Apartment
I bet this happens all the time
Bad day bored night good timing
Oh yeah this beer I guess it’s nice
Same jokes small talk and longing
Oh wow you seem just my type
would push me away if you loved me
Sure we can head over to mine
Finish that thought in the morning
Or the afternoon
I like to think I know better than I do but I do this all time too
No worries I won't fall for you If we go to my
Studio apartment, no view of the bridge or my dreams*
Hold on just a minute, should probably close up my tab and finish this drink
I bet this happens all the time
You fall hard and fast and mean it
Oh my place I wouldn’t say it’s nice
See for yourself in a minute
Drop us off here please yeah that’s fine
Waste our money our time and our feelings*
Oh shit I locked my keys inside
Forgetting them and the days and a reason or an excuse
I like to think I know better than I do but I do this all time too
hoping I won't fall for you If we can into my My my o my
Studio apartment, if I can find the spare key
Hold on just a minute it’s gotta be behind the plant or under this carpeting
Oh darling sorry did you say something I’m humming you’re mumbling
Come into my
Studio apartment, there's wine under the sink
Hold me like you mean it pretend this would work and we're both living our dreams
