Dresden Dolls - Bad Habit Lyrics
biting keeps your words at baytending to the sores that stayhappiness is just a gash awaywhen i open a familiar scarpain goes shooting like a starcomfort hasn't failed to follow so far...and you might say it's self-indulgentyou might say its self-destructivebut, you see, it's more productivethan if i were to be healthy& pens and penknives take the blamecrane my neck & scratch my namebut the ugly marksare worth the momentary gain...when i jab a sharpened object inchoirs of angels seem to singhymns of hate in memorandumand you might say it's self-indulgentand you might say it's self-destructivebut, you see, it's more productivethan if i were to be happyand sappy songs about sex and cheatingbland accounts of two lovers meetingmake me want to give mankind a beatingand you might say it's self-destructivebut, you see, i'd kick the bucketsixty times before i'd kick the habitand as the skin rips off i cherish the revolting thoughtthat even if i quitthere's not a chance in hell i'd stopand anyone can see the signsmittens in the summertimethank you for your pity, you are too kindand you might say its self-inflictedbut you see that's contradictivewhy on earth would anyone practice self destruction?and pain opinions are sitcom feedingthey dont know that their minds are teethingmakes me want to give mankind a beatingi'm tried bandages and sinkingi've tried gloves and even thinkingi've tried vaselinei've tried everythingand no-one cares if your back is bleedingthey're concerned with their hair recedinglooking back it was all maltreatingevery thought that occurred misleadingmakes me want to give myself a beating....
