Boy this took me back. Sweet pipes, lady..

"BAD" is the aftermath of a breakup through the eyes of the person who ended the relationship. It expresses all the feelings you go through when you leave someone who loves you because you believed that you were "bad" for them, even if it might not be true. It was your own struggles and internal conflict that led you to sabotage the relationship.

Lyrics

You said that I gave up
I don’t think that’s true
It’s just that I don’t feel
The same way that you do
You’re stuck on a feeling
I wish I were too
Wherever my heart went
It broke yours right in two

And when the time heals all your wounds
You will see that I wasn’t meant to be with you

‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
I can’t run from the lies
Got me torn up inside
Once again, to no end
You beg me not to leave
Waiting so patiently
Then I go my own way
Leaving you in the dark
When you thought we’d go up
‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
What you had

I wish it were different
I know you do too
Caught up in the moment
I realized we’re through
Guilt and regret
Sadness and shame
All of these feelings
Are driving me insane

And when the time heals all your wounds
You will see that I wasn’t meant to be with you

‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
I can’t run from the lies
Got me torn up inside 
Once again, to no end
You beg me not to leave
Waiting so patiently
Then I go my own way
Leaving you in the dark 
When you thought we’d go up
‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
What you had

I had time to think about it
I’ve lost you just like I’ve been losing mind

‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
I can’t run from the lies
Got me torn up inside
Once again, to no end
You beg me not to leave
Waiting so patiently
Then I go my own way
Leaving you in the dark
When you thought we’d go up
‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
What you had

‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
I can’t run from the lies
Got me torn up inside
Once again, to no end
You beg me not to leave
Waiting so patiently
Then I go my own way
Leaving you in the dark
When you thought we’d go up
‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
What you had

‘Cause I’m bad, so bad
What you had

Have you ever had someone take up all the thoughts inside your head? "haunted" is about consuming the mind of an ex-lover until you're haunting them in their dreams.


LYRICS

You say you’ll move on from me
I say you won’t
They say you talk about me
You say you don’t

When you walk out there and you’re not aware
That I’m watching every move
Think you’ll get on by leaving me behind
Do you take me for a fool

I’ll follow you wherever
You go till we’re together
I’ll haunt you in your wildest dreams
You said we’d be forever
And now you say it’s never
I’ll haunt you till you start to scream
Haunted in your dreams

Now don’t you worry ‘bout it
You’ll figure out
That I’m the only one
You’ll never be without

When you walk out there and you’re not aware
That I’m watching every move
Think you’ll get on by leaving me behind
Do you take me for a fool

I’ll follow you wherever
You go till we’re together
I’ll haunt you in your wildest dreams
You said we’d be forever
And now you say it’s never
I’ll haunt you till you start to scream
Haunted in your dreams

When you turn around
Do you see me
Haunted in your dreams
When you sleep at night
Do you feel me
Haunted in your dreams
When you close your eyes
Do you see me
Haunted in your dreams
When you dream at night
Do you feel me
Haunted in your dreams
Dreams

I’ll follow you wherever
You go till we’re together
I’ll haunt you in your wildest dreams
You said we’d be forever
And now you say it’s never
I’ll haunt you till you start to scream
Haunted in your dreams

LYRICS

I don't like you, but I love you
Seems that I'm always thinkin' of you
Though you treat me badly
I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)

Baby, I don't want you, but I need you
Don't wanna kiss you, but I need to
Though you do me wrong now
My love is strong now
You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)

Baby, I love you, and all I want you to do is just
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
(Ooh darlin', yeah)Tighter
(Tighter) Tighter

I wanna leave you, don't wanna stay here
Don't wanna spend another day here
Though I wanna split now
I can't quit now
You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)

Baby, I love you, and all I want you to do is just
Hold me, (please), hold me, (squeeze), hold me, hold me

You've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
I said, you've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
I said, you've really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)
You know, you really got a hold on me
(You really got a hold on me)

DISCOVER

"Confusion" is about a bewildering relationship that leaves you feeling uncertain about the feelings of the person you're involved with. It's the "gray area" of a relationship where you're not sure if you're both on the same page. Communication is key to avoid confusion.

Lyrics

Distractions, extractions
Parts of growing up they never told you about
Fact or fiction
Work to get away, work to make you stay

Confusion is strong and you're stringing along
Can't make decisions moving to your rhythm
Passion, false reaction
Don't make no appeal when you know it's real

Confusion, confusion
Or is it an illusion
Confusion
What is this you're doing
Doing to me
My head and heart don't agree
Waiting so patiently
Can't shake these feelings
You got me all up in confusion

Chemistry don't mess with me
Your vibe is strong like this alcohol
Mastery, are you feeling me
I'm falling deep in this hole and I lose all control

Confusion is strong and you're stringing along
Can't make decisions moving to your rhythm
Passion, false reaction
Don't make no appeal when you know it's real

Confusion, confusion
Or is it an illusion
Confusion
What is this you're doing
Doing to me
My head and heart don't agree
Waiting so patiently
Can't shake these feelings
You got me all up in confusion

Why can't you stay
This feeling in my brain
You've got me wired
But my fragile heart is tired
I don't know what I'd do
When you give me your attention
I just want your connection
But all I get is

Confusion, confusion
Or is it an illusion
Confusion
What is this you're doing
Doing to me
My head and heart don't agree
Waiting so patiently
Can't shake these feelings
You got me all up in confusion
