Bad
Nathan Benjamin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something reminds me of you whenever I try to forget
Cause there is no one that's like you
Its hard to unlike you
What's there not to like bout somebody just like you?
(Oh whoa, oh whoa)
I'm crushing bad (Bad)
You probably know that
That I'm crushing bad
Nobody radiates energy positively quite like you do
We could both dream for the stars until we end up on the moon
And if I traveled the world to find someone as beautiful
I'll tell you right now its straight up impossible
(Oh whoa, oh whoa)
I'm crushing bad (Bad)
Cause you got me bad (Bad)
You probably know that
That I'm crushing bad
I'm crushing bad (Bad)
Cause you got me bad (Bad)
You probably know that
That I'm crushing bad
You probably know that
That I'm crushing bad
The song "Bad" by Nathan Benjamin centers around the theme of unrequited love. The lyrics express the singer's inability to get over someone who they find to be uniquely charming and attractive. The line "You got me messed up cause I still got you in my head" implies that this person still occupies the singer's thoughts, despite moments of attempted distancing from them. The lyrics also acknowledge the fact that there may be others in the world who are physically attractive, but they still fail to compare to this particular person in the singer's eyes. The line "You probably know that" suggests that the singer is aware that their feelings may not be mutual and that the object of their affection may be aware of the singer's infatuation.
The chorus, with its repetition of "I'm crushing bad (Bad)/Cause you got me bad (Bad)," underscores the intensity of the singer's emotions. The use of the word "crushing" implies both a sense of longing and a feeling of being overwhelmed by this emotion. The lyrics go on to describe this person's positive energy, and the potential for dreaming together as a couple.
Overall, the song "Bad" is a heartfelt expression of the pain of unrequited love, capturing the complexity of emotions that such a situation often entails.
