Bad

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm stuck inside my head and I can't fight it

These walls are caving in and I can't hide it

I try to trick myself

and think that this is who I am
but deep inside I know that

I just keep on lying

Oh

I don't wanna be the one who's

stuck inside this chase

This gravity is pulling me down

I want it bad bad bad bad

I'm stuck in all the sad sad sad sad feeling

and now you know that

that the feeling won't go away

can't kill the demons that try and stay

but I'll fight it my way

I'm bad

Never good enough is all I'm thinking

I feel the water rise and I keep sinking

I wonder if what's left

is just an empty broken mess

but I pick myself back up and keep fighting

Oh

I don't wanna be the one who's

stuck inside this chase

This gravity is pulling me down

I want it bad bad bad bad

I'm stuck in all the sad sad sad sad feeling

and now you know that

that the feeling won't go away

can't kill the demons that try and stay

but I'll fight it my way

I'm bad

Don't wanna hear what you have to say to me

Don't give a damn

what you see is wrong in me

Don't wanna hear what you have to say to me

Don't wanna hear I already know

Don't give a damn

what you see is wrong in me

wrong in me, wrong in me

I want it bad bad bad bad

I'm stuck in all the sad sad sad sad feeling

and now you know that

that the feeling won't go away

can't kill the demons that try and stay

but I'll fight it my way

I want it bad bad bad bad

I'm stuck in all the sad sad sad sad feeling

and now you know that

that the feeling won't go away

can't kill the demons that try and stay

but I'll fight it my way

I'm bad!





I'm bad!

The lyrics explain how the singer is stuck in all these sad feelings and wants to break away from them. She feels bad a lot of the time and never seems to be good enough. The water keeps rising, and she keeps sinking, but she chooses to pick herself back up and keep fighting. She doesn't want anyone to tell her what's wrong with her because she already knows.
