Habits
PLESTED Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're the ink on my skin
Through the thick, through the thin
You were mine
My confession, you're my sin
My religion,
Yeah you bring me to life
You're the smoke in the air, everywhere
You're the truth, you're the dare,
You're the lie
And I don't want to stare, but I swear
No that nothing compares,
To your eyes

I never wanna break your heart
I never wanna break your heart
I'm never gunna stop it once I start
I'm never gunna break it
My habits die hard

You're the pain, you're the numb
You're the empty bottle of rum,
I don't remember
You're the hit, you're the run
You're the trigger on the gun
And I surrender

You're the smoke in the air, everywhere
You're the truth, you're the dare,
You're the lie
And I don't want to stare, but I swear
No that nothing compares,
To your eyes

I'm never gunna break your heart
I'm never gunna break your heart
I'm never gunna stop it once I start
I'm never gunna break it
My habits die hard

Never break the habit
Never break the habit

I'm never gunna break your heart
I'm never gunna break your heart
I'm never gunna stop it once I start




I'm never gunna break it
My habits die hard

Overall Meaning

The song "Habits" by PLESTED is an emotional track that speaks about the intense and unbreakable connection he shares with his lover. The opening lines "You're the ink on my skin, Through the thick, through the thin, You were mine" signify how their love is so deep-rooted that their bond transcends all thick and thin instances of life. The use of ink as a metaphor for their love depicts how their passion is a permanent tattoo on his skin that he cherishes. The next lines, "My confession, you're my sin, My religion, Yeah, you bring me to life." express how his love is a confession and a sin as well as his religion that drives him to live. Their love is what motivates him to live and celebrate every moment of life.


The next few lines talk about how his feelings for her are incomparable to anything else. He compares her to the smoke in the air, and she is everywhere, the truth and the dare, and the lie, showcasing how he sees his lover in everything. His significant other's eyes hold a special place in his heart, and nothing can match the look in her eyes. The chorus "I never wanna break your heart, I'm never gonna stop it once I start, I'm never gonna break it, My habits die hard" shows how he vows to never break her heart and how his habits of admiring, loving, and caring for her are inherent, which he can never change. He can't stop loving her once he starts and will never break her heart because the connection they share is one that is unbreakable.


The verses that follow depict how his lover is his pain and his numbness, his empty bottle of rum, and the trigger to his gun. He also surrenders to her, signifying how he is entirely in her grip, and she has control over him. The repeated stanza in the chorus signifies his commitment to keeping the love he shares with his lover alive and how his habits of appreciating and loving her will never die.

Grey's anatomy plays the best music..excellent

@Binx75075

Totally agree.

@xxnicholasxx1282

Who else cried during 14x23 when April almost died

@katlynrabbitskin2713

I did omg that part hurt my heart 💔

@lucyhughes6459

Honestly I didn't cry but still found it sad, I guess it's cuz deep down I knew she was gonna be ok, plus it doesn't compare to Lexie's death and Derek's, they were both sad and I didn't even like Derek.

@Im.worthless

Hardest part was watching Jackson beg for her life. O’Malley fucked me up tho

@katebauer7043

Not me.

@liindinjaa
