"Old Habits Die Hard" lyrics

"Old Habits Die Hard"

You look like shit. So do you, my brother
I missed you too. Yeah. You dumb stupid mother
A cheap "Welcome Home" sign, a bottle of red
At least you got freedom on an old pull-out bed
Three cheers to the best of the rest we got left

If you could dream anything, what would that be?
If you could dream that, would you share it with me?
We carry our choices, we hide our regrets
We know there's a price, we'll both pay our debts
But maybe they ain't seen the last of us yet

'Cause old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
It might be painful to smile
But it covers the scars
And old habits die hard

There's a face in the mirror, but it don't look like me
Yesterday's gone, a rain drop in the sea
I have your back for each day that's gone by
And I'll still have it 'til the day that I die
Yeah, I'll still have it 'til the day that I die

Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
It might be painful to smile
But it covers the scars
And old habits die hard

Some day you'll be missed by those you leave behind
And I hope you touched other lives like you've touched mine
Old habits die hard
Old habits die hard
It might be painful to smile
But it covers the scars
Appearances change but don't change who we are
And old habits die hard
