lyrics

I wrote a novel about it
Grammatically it's full of holes
My specialty has never been
knowing where them commas go

I made a promise about it
You'd think by now I would have learned
That page and pen and good intent
Don't represent a corner turned

I should know better than I do
And I would if I could
If I had the will to want to

But I already know this well
And yet I remain it still

I'm so frightened of failure
That I'm scared to even begin
That ironies not lost on me
I just refuse to let it sink in

I'm a creature of Habit
Cotton comfort sun and cold
Leave me outside when rivers high
eventually I'll turn to stone

I should know better than I do
And I would if I could
If I had the will to want to

But I already know this well
And yet I remain it still
