Bad
♪♫ Sunrise Avenue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm lost somehow
Sailing all them seas
I'm feeling holy
You make me alive
Driving on the wrong side
And I just feel I'm really losing my mind
We're in the moonlight
You take me again
You hold me like your own
I can't believe it
You make me begin
I slide in the game you're playing
And I just feel I'm really losing my mind
And I just feel I'm really losing my mind
This can't be right
This can't be fair
You make me do the dirty things I usually don't dare
This is not me
And it makes me mad
You have that something on your skin you know
You always make me bad
Yeah, pull my head right
You got me again
Sparks in the air around
You do it so damn fine
I'm being taken into the tunnel of dark
And I just feel I'm really losing my mind
And I just feel I'm really losing my mind
No, this can't be right
This can't be fair
You make me do the dirty things I usually don't dare
No this is not me
And it makes me mad
You have that something on your skin you know
You always make me
This can't be right
This can't be fair
You make me do the dirty things I usually don't dare
No this is not me
And it makes me mad
You have that something on your skin you know
You always make me so, so bad
You have that something on your skin you know
You always make me so damn bad
You always make me bad
You always make me bad, so bad, so bad oh so bad
In the first verse of Sunrise Avenue's "Bad", the singer expresses a feeling of being lost and adrift, comparing himself to someone sailing the seas. He then shifts to a more positive tone, singing about the way his lover makes him feel alive and excited even as he drives recklessly. However, he is also aware that this intensity is beginning to overwhelm him, and he feels like he might be losing his mind.
The chorus repeats this feeling of being out of control, with the singer lamenting how his partner makes him do things that he wouldn't normally consider doing. He feels like he's losing himself, and while the passion is thrilling, it's also worrying him. The second verse continues this theme, with the singer describing how he's being pulled in deeper by his lover's intensity, feeling like he's being taken into a "tunnel of dark".
Overall, "Bad" is a song about the thrill and danger of passion, and the way that it can simultaneously make us feel truly alive while also making us feel like we're losing control.

Love hurts, love scars
Love wounds and marks
Any heart
Not tough or strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud
Holds a lot of rain
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
I'm young, I know, but even so
I know a thing or two
I learned from you
I really learned a lot, really learned a lot
Love is like a flame
It burns you when it's hot
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Some fools think of happiness
Blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves, I guess
They're not foolin' me
I know it isn't true
I know it isn't true
Love is just a lie
Made to make you blue
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
I know it isn't true
I know it isn't true
Love is just a lie
Made to make you blue
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh...
