I’ve been driving over half my life
And I’ve had a few close calls
But if I wear a seatbelt at all
I hesitate for at least eighty seconds

It’s a force of habit
It’s a force of habit

I lived on the second floor
And I did for almost ten years
But I still counted every step to the door
It’s a force of habit
It’s a force of habit (it takes patience to break)
It’s a force of habit

It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break

I obsess, and I can’t let go
The insignificance of something I broke
I can’t think straight or switch gears
It plays out and affects the people I love
It’s a force of habit
It’s a force of habit

It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break

It’s a force of habit
It takes patience to break
It’s a force of habit It takes patience to break
It’s a force of habit
It takes patience to break
It’s a force of habit
It takes patience to break
