Worst Thing
NOTD Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If your car wouldn't start up
We had to fog up the windows
When it gets dark just to keep us warm? (Yeah)
I wish we never met sometimes
'Til I'm with another ex, and I
Forget that you're the best sometimes
'Cause I hate this and I hate that
You're making me say this
'Cause I ain't one to say this but
We claim we're better off apart (oh)
Pretend that we don't get along
But would it be the worst thing
If your car wouldn't start up
We had to fog up the windows
When it gets dark just to keep us warm?
And would it be the worst thing if we both fell asleep
Woke up to twenty calls each
Wondering where the hell have we been?
If it means that we'd have eight more hours alone
Or even if we never make it home
I guess that wouldn't be the worst thing
Don't wanna overcomplicate
I tend to overcompensate
When you're not here, can't help it
My thoughts are automatic
Keep pulling me in, under my skin
I should admit, I-I'm in a gridlock
With my same thoughts of you
We claim we're better off apart (oh)
Pretend that we don't get along
But would it be the worst thing
If your car wouldn't start up
We had to fog up the windows
When it gets dark just to keep us warm?
And would it be the worst thing
If we both fell asleep
Woke up to twenty calls each
Wondering where the hell have we been?
If it means that we'd have eight more hours alone
Or even if we never make it home
I guess that wouldn't be the worst thing
Would it be, would it be the
Would it be the worst thing?
Would it be, would it be the
Would it be the worst thing? (I guess that wouldn't be the worst thing)
Would it be, would it be, no, oh, oh
The worst thing, yeah (oh)
Worst thing
But would it be the worst thing
If your car wouldn't start up
We had to fog up the windows
When it gets dark just to keep us warm?
And would it be the worst thing
If we both fell asleep
Woke up to twenty calls each
Wondering where the hell have we been?
If it means that we'd have eight more hours alone
Or even if we never make it home
I guess that wouldn't be the worst thing
The lyrics of NOTD's song "Worst Thing" describe the conflicted emotions and thoughts that arise when reflecting on a past relationship. The song explores the idea that sometimes it feels like it would be better if two people never met, but those feelings fade when the singer is with another ex and realizes that their past partner is actually the best they've had. It delves into the internal struggle of wanting to move on and believe that being apart is for the best, while still longing for the warmth and familiarity of the relationship.
The lyrics play with the idea of hypothetical scenarios that would not be considered the worst thing. For example, if their car wouldn't start and they had to fog up the windows to keep warm, or if they both fell asleep and woke up to missed calls. These situations, though inconvenient, would provide them with more time together or a chance to be alone. The song poses the question of whether these seemingly minor inconveniences would actually be worse than being completely apart.
Overall, "Worst Thing" captures the complicated emotions of longing, indecision, and nostalgia that often arise after a relationship ends. It exposes the internal battle between wanting to move on and the comfort found in the familiarity of a past love.
Line by Line Meaning
But would it be the worst thing
Is it possible that this situation wouldn't be as bad as we think?
If your car wouldn't start up
If your car failed to start
We had to fog up the windows
We resorted to steaming up the windows
When it gets dark just to keep us warm?
During nighttime to keep ourselves warm
I wish we never met sometimes
Sometimes I regret meeting you
'Til I'm with another ex, and I
Until I'm with another past partner, and I
Forget that you're the best sometimes
Forget that you are the one I consider the best sometimes
Wonder if I'm in your head
I wonder if I occupy your thoughts
'Cause I hate this and I hate that
Because I dislike this and I dislike that
You're making me say this
You are causing me to express these feelings
'Cause I ain't one to say this but
Because I don't usually say these things but
We claim we're better off apart (oh)
We assert that we are better when we are not together
Pretend that we don't get along
Act as if we don't have a good relationship
And would it be the worst thing if we both fell asleep
And would it really be so bad if we both fell asleep
Woke up to twenty calls each
Awakened to twenty phone calls each
Wondering where the hell have we been?
Curious about where the hell we have been
If it means that we'd have eight more hours alone
If it means we would have eight additional hours by ourselves
Or even if we never make it home
Or even if we never reach our destination
I guess that wouldn't be the worst thing
I suppose that wouldn't be the most terrible outcome
Don't wanna overcomplicate
I don't want to make things unnecessarily complicated
I tend to overcompensate
I often try too hard to make up for something
When you're not here, can't help it
When you are not around, I can't control it
My thoughts are automatic
My thoughts happen automatically
Keep pulling me in, under my skin
Continuously attracting and affecting me
I should admit, I-I'm in a gridlock
I should confess that I am caught in a difficult situation
With my same thoughts of you
With my recurring thoughts about you
Would it be, would it be the
Could it be, could it be the
Would it be the worst thing?
Would it be the most terrible outcome?
Would it be, would it be the
Could it be, could it be the
Would it be the worst thing? (I guess that wouldn't be the worst thing)
Would it be the most terrible outcome? (I suppose that wouldn't be the worst thing)
Would it be, would it be, no, oh, oh
Could it be, could it be, no, oh, oh
The worst thing, yeah (oh)
The most terrible outcome, yeah
Worst thing
The absolute worst outcome

🇧🇷Pior coisa
[Intro: kenzie]
Mas seria a pior coisa
Se o seu carro não ligasse
Nós tivemos que embaçar as janelas
Quando escurece só para nos manter aquecidos?
[Verso 1: kenzie]
Eu gostaria que nunca tivéssemos nos conhecido às vezes
Até que eu esteja com outro ex, e eu
esqueço que você é o melhor às vezes
Me pergunto se estou na sua cabeça porque eu odeio isso
E odeio isso, você está me fazendo dizer isso
porque eu não sou de dizer isso, mas
[Pré-refrão: kenzie]
Nós afirmamos que estamos melhor separados (Oh-woah, oh-oh)
Finja que não nos damos bem
[ Refrão: kenzie]
Mas seria a pior coisa
Se o seu carro não ligasse
Tivemos que embaçar as janelas
Quando escurece apenas para nos manter aquecidos?
E seria a pior coisa se nós dois adormecêssemos
Acordássemos até vinte ligações cada
Querendo saber onde diabos estávamos?
Se isso significa que teríamos mais oito horas sozinhos
Ou mesmo se nunca chegarmos em casa
Acho que não seria a pior coisa
[Verso 2: kenzie]
Não quero complicar demais
Eu tendo a compensar demais
Quando você não está aqui, não posso evitar
Meus pensamentos são automáticos
Continue me puxando, debaixo da minha pele
Eu devo admitir, eu estou em um impasse
Com meus mesmos pensamentos sobre você
[Pré-refrão: kenzie]
Nós afirmamos que estamos melhor separados (Oh-woah, oh-oh)
Finja que não nos damos bem
[Refrão: kenzie]
Mas seria a pior coisa
Se o seu carro não ligasse
Nós tivemos que embaçar as janelas
Quando escurece só para nos manter aquecidos?
E seria a pior coisa se nós dois adormecêssemos
Acordássemos até vinte ligações cada
Querendo saber onde diabos estávamos?
Se isso significa que teríamos mais oito horas sozinhos
Ou mesmo se nunca chegarmos em casa
Eu acho que não seria a pior coisa
[Bridge: kenzie]
Seria, seria
a pior coisa?
Seria, seria o
Seria a pior coisa?
(Eu acho que não seria a pior coisa)
Seria, seria, não, oh, oh
A pior coisa, sim (Oh)
A pior coisa?
[Refrão: kenzie]
Mas seria a pior coisa
Se o seu carro não ligasse
Nós tivemos que embaçar as janelas
Quando escurece só para nos manter aquecidos?
E seria a pior coisa se nós dois adormecêssemos
Acordássemos até vinte ligações cada
Querendo saber onde diabos estávamos?
Se isso significa que teríamos mais oito horas sozinhos
Ou mesmo se nunca chegarmos em casa
Acho que não seria a pior coisa
