Habits
Vintage Talk Lyrics

Old man just as you are
Despite your old age, I still want to connect with you

I'd really like to share a drink
I want to have a conversation and get to know you better

Won't you slide down this old bar
Let's sit closer to each other and break down the barriers between us

Old whiskey I never tried
I'm open to new experiences and want to try something different

You always talk but now you're quiet
You were once vocal, but now you're more reserved - perhaps from the passage of time

I guess that's what time will do
Time changes people and their personalities

Habits fade the ball and chain
Harmful habits can be a burden and are hard to break

have long left before you
It's not too late to overcome these habits

A mixed up world is where I'm from
The world can be confusing and complex

Is that where you live too
Do you share my perception of the world? Can you relate to how I feel?

Try to pretend like you're on the right track
Sometimes people try to act like they have it all together, even when they don't

When there's nothing left and you're on the wrong path
When you're out of options and life takes a turn for the worse

If I was you then I'd be headed back
If I were in your shoes, I would try to turn my life around and make better choices

'cuz there's nothing left and you're on the wrong track
Continuing down a negative path leads to emptiness and despair

Stay with me but keep in line
I want to connect with you, but I also want us to stay on the right path

The beat is short but so is time so
Life is precious and we need to make the most of it

I won't keep you for too long
I don't want to waste your time and want to keep our encounter brief yet meaningful

And though we're moving much too fast
Our interaction may feel rushed or hasty, but it's still important

I know this train will keep its track
I'm confident that we will stay on course and have a positive outcome
