BAD
Tablo Feat. Park Bom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

뭔가 달라졌대, 모두 내가 변했대
참 정이 많았던 애가 언젠가 좀 차가워졌대

뭔가 달라졌대, 모두 내가 변했대
참 정이 많았던 애가 언젠가 좀 차가워졌대
이젠 알 수가 없겠대, 항상 웃었던 넌데
눈빛, 표정, 말투가 어두워졌고 무서워졌대
죽이고픈 기억 때문인지 내 마음에서 날 지워가면서
부질없는 착한 마음은 이 세상에선 결함이니까, 어서
점점 나빠지고 싶나봐
사랑하면 닮아간다는 말처럼 이렇게 해서라도
너와 조금만 닮아지고 싶나봐

나쁘다, 사랑은 참 나쁘다
숨 쉬는 이유가 되어버린 네가 내 숨을 막는다
Love is so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
사랑은 알수록 나빠질 수밖에 없나봐
Love is so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
사랑을 알게 되면 가슴이 아프게 돼
아는 만큼 나쁘게 돼

안내던 화가 나는 말, 나답지가 않다는 말
"나다운 게 뭔데?" 라고 말하면서 잘만 아는 말
내가 나를 못 봐, 어둠속에 안겨 봐도
눈 감아 봐도 마음 편히 못 자, 밤새도록 헤매
한 모금조차 조금도 못 마시던 술이 고파
조바심에 취해서 새벽비가 쏟아지는 길에서 비틀거리며
시비를 걸며 좋은 말만 속삭이던 입에서 숨 쉬면 욕이 나와
불씨가 화가 되기 전엔 못 지나가
버릇처럼 거짓말하게 되고 사랑을
사랑이라는 이름으로 괴롭히잖아

나쁘다, 사람은 참 나쁘다
눈뜨는 이유가 되어버린 네가 내 눈을 가린다
Love is so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
사랑은 알수록 나빠질 수밖에 없나봐
Love is so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
사랑을 알게 되면 가슴이 아프게 돼

나쁜 너 보다 나쁜 건
그런 너를 잊지 못해 망가지고 나빠지는 나
다른 사람에게 나빠지는 나
나쁜 너 보다 나쁜 건
그런 너를 잊지 못해 망가지고 나빠지는 나
다른 사람에게 나쁜 나

나쁘다, 참 나쁘다, 아프다, 참 아프다
What we call love
Love is a sickness, can I get a witness?
Love is a sickness, can I get a witness?
나쁘다, 참 나쁘다, 아프다, 참 아프다
What we call love
Love is a sickness, can I get a witness?
Love is a sickness, love

Love is so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
사랑은 알수록 나빠질 수밖에 없나봐




Love is so bad, bad, bad
사랑을 알게 되면 가슴이 아프게 돼

Overall Meaning

"Bad" by Tablo feat. Park Bom is a song about the pain and toxicity of love. The first verse talks about how the singer's partner has changed, becoming colder and more distant. The singer knows that their love is not good for them, but they still find themselves wanting to be like their partner. The second verse deals with the singer's own flaws and how they have become a worse person due to their love. The chorus repeats that love is bad and only gets worse the more you know about it.


The song's lyrics paint a raw and honest picture of the darker side of love, detailing the pain and limitations that come with it. The chorus emphasizes this idea, repeating that love is a sickness that only gets worse as you understand it more. The use of repetition throughout the song adds to the sense of hopelessness and despair.


One interesting fact about the song is that it features Park Bom, a former member of the group 2NE1. This collaboration marks a reunion between Tablo and Park Bom since they last collaborated in the 2009 song "낙서" (Scars Deeper Than Love).


Another interesting fact is that the music video features cameos from fellow artists, including Epik High's Mithra Jin and Henry Lau. The video depicts the struggles of a couple in a toxic relationship, adding a visual layer to the song's powerful lyrics.


Line by Line Meaning

뭔가 달라졌대, 모두 내가 변했대
They say something has changed, that I'm the one who's different now


참 정이 많았던 애가 언젠가 좀 차가워졌대
The affectionate child has become cold at some point


이젠 알 수가 없겠대, 항상 웃었던 넌데
Now I just don't understand, you were always smiling


눈빛, 표정, 말투가 어두워졌고 무서워졌대
Your gaze, expression, and tone have become dark and scary


죽이고픈 기억 때문인지 내 마음에서 날 지워가면서
As if I want to erase you from my heart because of painful memories


부질없는 착한 마음은 이 세상에선 결함이니까, 어서
A kind heart is useless, because in this world it's a flaw, so hurry


점점 나빠지고 싶나봐
Maybe I want to become worse and worse


사랑하면 닮아간다는 말처럼 이렇게 해서라도
Like the saying 'When you love, you become alike,' even if it means doing this


너와 조금만 닮아지고 싶나봐
I think I want to become a little more like you


나쁘다, 사랑은 참 나쁘다
Love is bad, really bad


숨 쉬는 이유가 되어버린 네가 내 숨을 막는다
You, who have become the reason I breathe, are suffocating me


Love is so bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
Love is really bad


사랑은 알수록 나빠질 수밖에 없나봐
Maybe the more you know about love, the worse it gets


사랑을 알게 되면 가슴이 아프게 돼
When you learn about love, your heart hurts


아는 만큼 나쁘게 돼
It gets worse the more you know


안내던 화가 나는 말, 나답지가 않다는 말
Hurtful words like 'You're not like yourself' or 'That's not like you'


"나다운 게 뭔데?" 라고 말하면서 잘만 아는 말
Asking 'What is being like myself?' as if they know


내가 나를 못 봐, 어둠속에 안겨 봐도
I can't see myself, even as I embrace the darkness


눈 감아 봐도 마음 편히 못 자, 밤새도록 헤매
I can't sleep peacefully even when I close my eyes, wandering all night long


한 모금조차 조금도 못 마시던 술이 고파
I crave even a drop of alcohol that I couldn't even drink before


조바심에 취해서 새벽비가 쏟아지는 길에서 비틀거리며
Impatiently stumbling down a street drenched in dawn rain


시비를 걸며 좋은 말만 속삭이던 입에서 숨 쉬면 욕이 나와
Swearing emerges from my mouth that was only whispering nice words and picking fights


불씨가 화가 되기 전엔 못 지나가
Before love becomes anger, I can't leave


버릇처럼 거짓말하게 되고 사랑을
I habitually tell lies in the name of love


사랑이라는 이름으로 괴롭히잖아
I'm tormenting in the name of love


나쁘다, 사람은 참 나쁘다
People are really bad


눈뜨는 이유가 되어버린 네가 내 눈을 가린다
You, who have become the reason I open my eyes, are blinding me


나쁜 너 보다 나쁜 건
Worse than you being bad


그런 너를 잊지 못해 망가지고 나빠지는 나
I can't forget you, so I'm falling apart and becoming worse


다른 사람에게 나빠지는 나
I'm becoming worse for other people


다른 사람에게 나쁜 나
I'm being bad to other people


나쁘다, 참 나쁘다, 아프다, 참 아프다
It's bad, really bad, hurts, really hurts


What we call love
What we call love


Love is a sickness, can I get a witness?
Love is a sickness, can I get a witness?


Love is so bad, bad, bad
Love is really bad

@alicerodriguez6294

I miss old YG

@milktea4421

I love both versions. Jinsil is like the sad one and Park Bom is like the angry one

@skylareed1702

When Jinsil sang this song, it was so sad and devastating meanwhile when Bommie sang it, it sounds so desperate and longing for love. love both versions!

@milktea4421

Park Bom has a pretty voice and so does Tablo <33

@gaji-wc5ej

i see her struggling low notes she got that power, high and unique voice but lack of control and dont let her sing rnb, it will be addicting🙂 she's effortlessly emotional when she sing ballad💗 and the way she sing pop😂 her voice has too much vibrato like a beatjng drum that will make u dance HAHHAHAH so much color in her voice

@veronicabb8050

Beautiful song of Tablo and Park Bom.
