Bad Life
Sigrid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A little depressed
Every now and then we get that feeling in our chest
Some days I'm a loser, brush my teeth in the dark
Head above water in a swimming pool of sharks
Ooh, it's hard to get up out of bed when everything is on its head
And nothing seems to make any sense
I fake a smile and fall apart
And no one ever knows I'm a wreck
When the world is on your shoulders
And the weight of your own heart is too much to bear
Well, I know that you're afraid things will always be this way
It's just a bad day, not a bad life
Everything's backwards and I'm hanging on
No matter how hard I try I always come undone
Backed in a corner, uncomfortably numb
Watching myself become a shadow of someone
Oh, it's hard to find a place to hide
When you're running from what's inside
No matter where you go, there you are
So tonight I'll go to war with me
'Cause I'm my own worst enemy and I don't wanna fight anymore
When the world is on your shoulders
And the weight of your own heart is too much to bear
Well, I know that you're afraid things will always be this way
It's just a bad day, not a bad life
And I know it feels so hopeless
And I know how close you are to the edge right now
So I wrote this song to say, things won't always be this way, no
It's just a bad day, not a bad life
Ooh, yeah
Yeah-yeah
Yeah, oh
When the world is on your shoulders
And the weight of your own heart is too much to bear
Well, I know that you're afraid things will always be this way
It's just a bad day, not a bad life
And I know it feels so hopeless
And I know how close you are to the edge right now
So I wrote this song to say, things won't always be this way, no
It's just a bad day, not a bad life
Yeah, it's just a bad day, not a bad life
The lyrics of "Bad Life" by Sigrid and Bring Me The Horizon talk about how everyone can have bad days, feel down, and experience depression, and how it can be difficult to deal with the weight of the world on your shoulders. The first verse talks about feeling damaged and depressed sometimes and trying to keep your head above water in a world full of sharks. The chorus reassures the listener that even though things can seem overwhelming, it's just a bad day and not a bad life. The second verse describes feeling like everything is backwards, struggling to find a place to hide, and ultimately deciding to go to war with oneself to overcome their own worst enemy.
The song conveys the message that no one should be ashamed of feeling down or depressed, and it's okay to have bad days. However, it's important to remember that even in the toughest of times, it's just a temporary setback and not a reflection of one's entire life. The song offers hope and reassurance that things will get better with time.
Overall, "Bad Life" is a song that addresses mental health issues and the importance of self-care, while also providing comfort and strength to those going through a difficult time.

"bad day not a bad life" is so essential to listen on repeat
@markorollo.
sigrid and BMTH? thats a collab i never expected, but it works, it really works. im in my late 40s, grew up on GnR, whitesnake, Thunder and older bands like deep purple, people my age and with my musical tastes often say theres no good tunes around anymore, theyre just not looking hard enough or being open to trying other things.
@garyhamilton7111
1:47 The bit that lifts me every time, the emotion this brings is off the charts, it gives me hope. Thanks Sigrid and BMTH for giving me the strength.
@danielleschilling2133
Can’t even say how much I needed this song at this moment.
