Lyrics

I saw the shadow of effort
Right where you left her
Everything in it’s right place
You’re too good at faking
I might be mistaken
But I think you lied to her face

I’m a creature
A creature of habit
I know that pain like I know the back of my hand
And if history repeats
I want to defy it
I want to make love in this life
Any way that I can
If time is the teacher
I’m a creature

saw the myth of an old dream
Like the ghost of a memory
Like a hoax you were keeping company
Make your bed with excuses
Rest in peace
cut your losses
leave the mess for the next century

I’m a creature
A creature of habit
I know that pain like I know the back of my hand
And if history repeats
I want to defy it
I want to make love in this life
Any way that I can
If time is the teacher
I’m a creature
