Lime Habit Lyrics
Never in the corner, luck of life
See up higher, never in style
I've a habit in life, keeping wild at reach
Gonna turn me into the type
Shadow's light never eats
Flic flac you're a habit to me
Flic flac you're a habit to me
[Refrain]
I've got space in the light of lime
A nod to me, a nod to time
I've got space in the light of lime
A nod to me, a nod to time, time
[Verse 2]
Exhausting out in the arch of night
Farway out you're going to see
I'm a loss of faith, you're a changed belief
Scored the goods for my baby, it's enough
So we hurry to leave
Flic flac you're a habit to me
Flic flac you're a habit to beat
[Bridge]
I've got space in the light of lime
A nod to me, a nod to time
I've got space in the light of lime
A nod to me, a nod to time
I've got space in the light of lime
A nod to me, a nod to time
About
The second track off of United Crushers, “Lime Habit” addresses issues of fame and living in the limelight.
In an interview with Drowned in Sound, Channy explains:
It’s more upbeat. As all the songs are that I’ve ever written are, it’s heavily autobiographical. Lyrically, it is a capsule of my life and my observances during that time. ‘Lime Habit’ is probably the most diary entry song on the record along with maybe ‘Fish’. Both are about my feelings of myself. Actually, there’s a good one line in there that represents it well: “Never in the corner, luck of life/ See/ Up/ Higher, never in style ”. It’s about how I’m not doing what’s quite in style, never quite hitting the mark.
