Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I couldn't stand the smell of smoke

'Til he lit that cigarette

Never felt a temptation

'Til I smelled it on his breath

And the night we first kissed

On the balcony alone

Well, he tasted like trouble

But he felt like my own

[Chorus]

Bad habit

I can't be without

Oh, bad habit

Bittersweet on my mouth

We got a long, drawn-out story

I don't want to explain

I picked up a bad habit

And I'll never be the same

[Verse 2]

And even after all the love we made

All the records we spun

I was dying for more

Just trying to fill up my lungs

But I knew it right then

He could never love me back

Still, I told myself

I'd never feel anything quite like that

[Chorus]

Bad habit

I can't be without

Oh, bad habit

Bittersweet on my mouth

We got a long, drawn-out story

I don't want to explain

I picked up a bad habit

And I'll never be the same

[Bridge]

I'll light it up, breathe it in

Let it all go and I do it again

Light it up, breathe it in

I swear it almost feels like him

I remember what it felt like the first time

Ain't nothin' like the first time

[Outro]

Bad habit

I'm gonna put you out

Oh, bad habit

I will miss you on my mouth

But we had a long, drawn-out story

And it was bound to end someday

Oh, bad habit

Oh, bad habit

I'll never be the same
