Every time you

Every time the
sun goes down

I can feel the
paradise befo

[Chorus 1]
My bad habits
lead to late n
ights endin' a
lone
Conversations
with a strange
r I barely kno
w
Swearin' this
will be the la
st but it prob
ably won't
I got nothin'
left to lose,
or use, or do
My bad habits
lead to wide e
yes starin' at
space
And I know I'l
l lose control
of the things
that I say
Yeah I was loo
kin' for a way
out, now I ca
n't escape
Nothin' happen
s after two, i
t's true
It's true my b
ad habits lead
to you

[Verse 2]
Evеry pure int

Fallin' over e

It started und
er neon lights
and then it a

I only know ho
w to go too fa

[Chorus 2]
My bad habits
lead to late n

alone
Conversations
with a strange
r I barely kno
