95 Accord Brake

Hello,

The car brake has been soft for a while. And now i notice that when im
stopped on a red-light - the car starts to crawl after a few seconds,
and i need to just apply more pressure on the pedal to stop the crawl.

Is this related to bad brake pads or something to do with the master
cylinder?

Thanks,
TheZone

Air in the lines, or a bad master cylinder.

If you keep your foot pressing gently on the pedal, does it eventually go
to the floor?

yes. i tried it in front of my house, if i keep pressing the pedal, it
slowly goes all the way down till it hits the floor.
