Bad
м.а. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing's real x-cept the money that we made
Staring at the place where the 2 walls meet
Yeah! - Take a chair'n'have a seat...
Well, I should see it as a brand new start
But I'm all Adams apple'n'a f-f-f-fast beatin' heart
My nerves they twist'n'they jerk
See no drugs will do the work
How I started stopped bein' me
'Coz you won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness
I got to tie my head to the T.V.'n'unplug the phone
Bad Craziness
See the shadows dancing' on the ceiling
Say, do you hear what I hear?
Like a T.V. no one watches
My head's filled with Yeahs'n'Overmuches
Walking trails on my livingroom floor
I feel that life won't be the same as before
Like an x-plorer; lookin' for help
I'd be happy to find myself..
And join the temple of hope
To keep my balance on this globe
'Coz you won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness
I got to tie my head to the T.V.'n'unplug the phone
Bad Craziness
I had 2 feet on the ground now I'm almost gone!
Be-be-be-Bad Craziness
'Coz you won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness ...
It's a bird, no a plane, it's a maaan insane!!
You won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness
I got to tie my head to the T.V.'n'unplug the phone
Bad Craziness
I had 2 feet on the ground; now I'm almost gone
Be-be-be-Bad Craziness
Now you won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness
Bad Craziness
Yeah!
Bad Craziness Bad Craziness
Anything for a good night's sleep
Bad Craziness
I'm counting nightmares instead of sheep
Bad Craziness
'Coz you won't believe what I believe when I'm alone!.

Straight out of frame'n'bend out of shape
I feel disoriented and out of place
Nothing's real x-cept the money that we made
The only thing that feels real to me is the wealth I've accumulated
Staring at the place where the 2 walls meet
I find myself staring at the most mundane things, feeling lost and hopeless
Yeah! - Take a chair'n'have a seat...
I feel like I need to just sit down and take a break from everything
Well, I should see it as a brand new start
I know I should see this as a fresh beginning, but I'm struggling to let go of my past
But I'm all Adams apple'n'a f-f-f-fast beatin' heart
I'm incredibly anxious and my heart is racing
My nerves they twist'n'they jerk
I feel like my nerves are constantly jolting and twisting
See no drugs will do the work
I've tried turning to drugs to help me feel better, but they don't seem to help
And I'll tell you for free
I'm going to be completely honest with you
How I started stopped bein' me
I feel like I've lost myself and I don't know how to get back to who I used to be
'Coz you won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
When I'm by myself, my thoughts become so jumbled that they're hard to believe
Bad Craziness
My mental state is not good
I got to tie my head to the T.V.'n'unplug the phone
To escape my own thoughts, I need to distract myself with TV and silence my phone
See the shadows dancing' on the ceiling
I see things that aren't there and feel like I'm losing my grip on reality
Say, do you hear what I hear?
I'm questioning what's real and what's not
Like a T.V. no one watches
My thoughts are racing like the static on a TV that no one is watching
My head's filled with Yeahs'n'Overmuches
My head feels like it's bursting with too much noise and stimulation
Walking trails on my livingroom floor
I find myself pacing and walking in circles in my own home
I feel that life won't be the same as before
I know that things won't be the same as they were and I'm scared of what the future holds
Like an x-plorer; lookin' for help
I feel lost and like I'm searching for guidance and help
I'd be happy to find myself..
I just want to rediscover who I am and find some peace of mind
And join the temple of hope
I want to find some sort of community or spiritual guidance that can give me hope
To keep my balance on this globe
I feel like I'm teetering on the edge and I need help to stay grounded and stable
It's a bird, no a plane, it's a maaan insane!!
I feel like I'm going crazy and losing touch with reality
I had 2 feet on the ground; now I'm almost gone
I used to feel stable and grounded, but now I feel like I'm slipping away
Anything for a good night's sleep
I'm willing to do anything to just get some rest and feel better
I'm counting nightmares instead of sheep
Even when I try to sleep, I can't escape my own thoughts and they manifest as nightmares
