[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
It's a force of habit
It's a force of habit

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
It's a force of habit
(It takes patience to break)
It's a force of habit

[Post-Chorus]
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
[Verse 3]
I obsess and I can't let go
The insignificant or something I broke
I can't think straight or switch gears
It plays out and affects the people I love

[Chorus]
It's a force of habit
It's a force of habit

[Post-Chorus]
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break
It takes patience to break

[Outro]
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
