Bad Blood
B. R. M. C. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hope that things get better for you
Are you lost in your games
I hope that they found shelter for you
Got you out of the driving rain

Do you hear the thunder and the rain
Slipping going under
Say my name

Are you lost and alone?
Are you wishing you were gone

You're supernatural
Saying you got it all
Show me your bad bad blood

Dropping your wrecking ball
Cause it's all you've got
Show me your bad bad blood

Give me bad blood
Give me bad blood
Give me all I want

I hope you kept the better of you
Found a place you could go
I hope you kept the angel in you
Run away from the pain in your soul

Do you hear the thunder and the rain
Slipping going under
Say my name





Are you lost and alone?
Are you wishing you were gone
