Louis Tomlinson: Habit Meaning

Habit Lyrics

I always said that I'd mess up eventually
I told you that, so what did you expect from me?
It shouldn't come as no surprise anymore
I know you said that you'd give me another chance
But you and I knew the truth of it in advance
That...

   i think this song is about harry.
   he said: "I took some time 'cause I've ran out of energy
   Of playing someone I heard I'm supposed to be"
   
   he has shown in many of his mv that he had to wear a mask, aka be someone who he didnt want to be.now we can all take that in different interpretations but if you know what im thinking,, good job ahha. its no mystery simon and the management controlled them horribly, and it has something to do with that for sure.
   lets talk about another lyric:
   "And it's been ages, different stages
   Come so far from Princess Park"
   hes literally spelling it out!!

   I do not agree:
   “This song could be about his music career. He has come so far since starting the career while living at Princess Park.
   The line 'its been ages different stages' might be about all that has happened as he grew up through the years.
   He almost quit after One Direction but singing is the habit he couldn't break.“
   
   Guys he sings YOU’RE the habit, that I can’t break. This is not about a thing, it’s about Harry. Don’t even try to convince me otherwise.
   And it’s been ages (it literally has) different stages (in their relationship) come so far from PRINCESS PARK

   'Come so far from Princess Park' Harry and Louis used to live together in a building called Princess Park.

   This song could be about his music career. He has come so far since starting the career while living at Princess Park.
   The line 'its been ages different stages' might be about all that has happened as he grew up through the years.
   He almost quit after One Direction but singing is the habit he couldn't break.

   This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

   This is just for the second verse because I dont have time to cover the entire song: The lyric "I took some time cause I ran out of energy of playing someone I heard I'm supposed to be but honestly I dont have to choose anymore" is implying the days when he was in 1D and he was controlled by management and always told how to look/behave and saying that the band could possibly have broke up because they were tired and fed up of being controlled all the time and not being able to show their true selves but now they can. Then the next line: "It's been ages, different stages" can be interpreted in two different ways, that its different stages of their life/friendship or relationship yet another way this can be interpreted is as if stages is referring to actual stages like when they would tour as a band. Then we come to the most well known line of this song, "Come so far from Princess Park" - Now it is a well known fact that Louis and Harry used to live together at Princess Park Manor back in 2011 which is why this line is so loud to larries and directioners but also we never expected louis to be this loud with one of his songs as this is louder than any of Harry's songs so it took us by surprise. This line also gives us so many Larry flashbacks like the Chicken stuffed with mozzarella wrapped in parma ham with homemade mash on the side!

   okay so i’m not one of those people that think every song by louis and harry are about each other, but you can not convince me that this song is not about harry. I mean, like he mentions princess park, and that’s where they used to live together. idk but i genuinely think it’s about harry.
