Bad Habits
Nerv Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's crazy
How did this start
With fire?
Burning when I met you
With desire

It's crazy
How did we get to this?
We both fell for something
We didn't know exists

Me to you
You to me
I'm loving every whisper
Love the way you tease

Me to you
You to me
I'm not one to get addicted
But girl, you got me

Closer we get, I'm losing my mind
Catch my breath, leave me behind

I don't wanna
Don't wanna
I don't wanna stop
Breathing you in
Yeah
I don't wanna stop

I feel something so electric
Overwhelming, unexpected

I don't wanna
Don't wanna
I don't wanna stop
Breathing you in
Yeah
I don't wanna stop

I feel something so electric
Lay me down and leave me breathless

Damn
I didn't realize I was sleeping
Didn't know you're just what I needed
But now I'm just so deep and

Damn
I'm awake but you got me dreaming
And every part of me screaming
So come on baby, lean in

Me to you
You to me
I'm loving every whisper
Love the way you tease

Me to you
You to me
I'm not one to get addicted
But girl, you got me

Closer we get, I'm losing my mind
Catch my breath, leave me behind

I don't wanna
Don't wanna
I don't wanna stop
Breathing you in
Yeah
I don't wanna stop

I feel something so electric
Overwhelming, unexpected

I don't wanna
Don't wanna
I don't wanna stop
Breathing you in
Yeah
I don't wanna stop

I feel something so electric
Lay me down and leave me breathless

I lost control
You had it
We were alone
Bad habits
We lost control
We had it
Now I'm alone
Bad habit

I lost control
You had it
We were alone
Bad habits
We lost control
We had it
Now I'm alone

I don't wanna
Don't wanna
I don't wanna stop
Breathing you in
Yeah
I don't wanna stop

I feel something so electric
Overwhelming, unexpected

I don't wanna
Don't wanna
I don't wanna stop
Breathing you in
Yeah
I don't wanna stop





I feel something so electric
Lay me down and leave me breathless

Overall Meaning

In Nerv's song Bad Habits, the lyrics express the intense attraction between two individuals that has led to a loss of self-control. The song opens with the singer questioning how this relationship began and then acknowledges that the attraction was immediate and overpowering from the start. The next verse suggests that neither party understood what they were getting into and how intense the feelings would become, but now they are both consumed by their attraction to each other. The chorus repeats the sentiment of the singer's addiction to the other person's presence and hints at a physical and emotional connection that has become all-encompassing. The bridge touches on the theme of losing oneself in the attraction and urges the other person to lean in and reciprocate. The song ends with the realization that the relationship has taken a turn for the worse, leading to regret and loneliness on the part of the singer.


The lyrics of Bad Habits effectively capture the all-consuming nature of attraction and the loss of control that often accompanies it. The song expresses both the euphoria and the danger that comes with being swept away by a relationship, and the repetition of the chorus drives home the idea that the singer is caught in the grip of their feelings. The bridge is particularly effective, as it conveys a sense of desperation and longing that adds depth to the song.

We filmed this little video a while back and never ended up releasing it, so we figured we’d drop a little holiday surprise for you all. 🎅🏻🎁

Hope everyone has an amazing Christmas and New Year! See you in 2021! 🤠

@conscioustheband

Well I hope that 2021 will finally bring us your new album!

@WeAreNerv

It absolutely will! :) We've had a ton of setbacks, but the album is finally done and we're filming music videos for it in about a month! Hoping to have the first single out in about a month as well since we already filmed the video for that one.

@the_dead_casanova2933

Absolutely love this song!! The wave of emotions and thoughts come rushing back in like a tidal wave.

@adamkahn8645

@NERV , boys.... you are literally a member of such a small group of artists that sound just as amazing accoustically as you do on the album..... reminds me of the beauty of when Staind did MTV unplugged. You're on that same level guys. With as many times as Ive listened to that song, i was coming into this with a critical mindset..... but again, flawless dude.

@xosunshineoxsunshine436
