It's a Habit

Nail biting, a habit so strong It's hard to break, it lingers on It's a nervous habit, it's true It's hard to stop, what can I do? My nails are short, my fingers bare I bite them down, I just don't care I know it's bad, I know it's wrong But I can't stop, it's been so long I try to stop, I try to quit But I can't help it, I just can't quit It's a habit that's hard to break It's a habit that I can't shake It's a habit that I can't control It's a habit that takes its toll It's a habit that I must fight It's a habit that gives me fright But I will try, I will not give in I will fight this habit and win I will break this habit at last And I will never bite my nails again.
