I always said that I'd mess up eventually I told you that, so what did you expect from me? It shouldn't come as no surprise anymore I know you said that you'd give me another chance But you and I knew the truth of it in advance That mentally you were already out the door Never thought that giving up would be so hard God, I'm missing you and your addictive heart You're the habit that I can't break You're the feeling I can't put down You're the shiver that I can't shake You're the habit that I can't break You're the high that I need right now You're the habit that I can't break I took some time 'cause I've ran out of energy Of playing someone I heard I'm supposed to be But honestly, I don't have to choose anymore And it's been ages, different stages Come so far from Princess Park I'll always need ya In front of me, in front of me You're the habit that I can't break You're the feeling I can't put down You're the shiver that I can't shake You're the habit that I can't break You're the high that I need right now You're the habit that I can't break You gave me the time and the space I was out of control and I'm sorry, I let you down Guess that I know what I already knew I was better with you, and I miss you now You're the habit that I can't break You're the feeling I can't put down You're the shiver that I can't shake You're the habit that I can't break You're the high that I need right now You're the habit that I can't break You're the habit that I can't break You're the feeling I can't put down You're the shiver that I can't shake You're the habit that I can't break You're the high that I need right now You're the habit that I can't break

I'm not supposed to be Feelin' dirty cheap on Silver Street At quarter to three Hidden across my face In the crowd, I'm countin' up the days In a haze I'm gazin' at the floor Somebody's got your trainers on The ones that you wore when you walked out the door I've been wonderin' about what you're up to Not for the first time Not for the last time And I've been thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do Not for the first time Not for the last time We always used to say Saturdays take the pain away Nobody stays the same No matter how much you want it Some things change Some things change Through my cigarette A shadow of you sticks me to the carpet Try to ignore it Somethin' about the way The light catches the mirror in my brain It gives me shade I'm starin' at the door Somebody's got your trainers on The ones that you wore But you're not here anymore I've been wonderin' about what you're up to Not for the first time Not for the last time And I've been thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do Not for the first time Not for the last time We always used to say Saturdays take the pain away Nobody stays the same No matter how much you want it Some things change Some things change Some things change Some things change My heart might be broken But I won't be broken down My heart might be broken But I won't be broken down We always used to say Saturdays take the pain away Nobody stays the same No matter how much you want it How much you want it We always used to say Saturdays take the pain away Nobody stays the same No matter how much you want it Some things change

Sometimes, I wake up, and I hear you through the silence You let your pride hide all your beauty and your kindness So fast to judge in error You thought you knew me better So quick to kill forever You used to read me like a headline So many reasons now you're not mine Maybe if you'd taken more time I'd still be the one you wanna talk to every night, oh-oh If you got in my head You wouldn't be scared of what you'd find You used to read me like a headline Oh, that's the reason now you're not mine anymore You spent your summer workin' for your education While I was runnin' after dreams that kept us waitin' You never told me never I guess I never knew we'd have the shortest forever Thought I could, but I can't forget you You used to read me like a headline So many reasons now you're not mine Maybe if you'd taken more time I'd still be the one you wanna talk to every night, oh-oh If you got in my head You wouldn't be scared of what you'd find You used to read me like a headline Oh, that's the reason now you're not mine anymore You used to read me like a headline You used to read me like a headline Sometimes, I wake up, and I wish you were beside me
