Bad Like Me
Embracing Love's Complexity: Bad Like Me by Abbey Danna
Lyrics
We barely know which way is up and down
We are disoriented and uncertain about our direction in life.
And as we spin around
We are in constant motion, spinning around.
The music stops
The music stops, suggesting a pause or change in the rhythm of life.
We've hardly held each others hand together yet
We haven't experienced much together, but there's a sense of familiarity.
But I know
Despite the limited time, a strong connection is felt.
That we can never hold
It's acknowledged that the future is unpredictable.
What the future may know for us
Encouragement for the other person not to follow a negative path.
But you don't have to be bad like me
Expressing a desire for the other person not to emulate negative behavior.
When I ask how are you
Asking about the well-being of the other person.
You don't have to care what I think
Emphasizing that the individual's opinion doesn't have to matter.
When I ask what you do
Questioning the other person's occupation or activities.
No, but it's true
Acknowledging the truth in the previous statement.
I can't get enough of you
Expressing a strong attraction and desire for more time together.
We barely know which way is up and down
Reiterating the disorientation and lack of clear direction.
Or left or right
Highlighting the confusion in various aspects of life.
But we're here and oh I admit
Acknowledging the beauty of the current situation despite the confusion.
It's a gorgeous sight
Appreciating the present as a wonderful sight.
But you don't have to be bad like me
Repeating the desire for the other person to avoid negative behavior.
When I ask how are you
Checking in on the other person's well-being.
You don't have to care what I think
Reiterating that the individual's opinion is not crucial.
When I ask what you do
Asking about the other person's actions or choices.
But it's true
Confirming the truth in the previous statement.
I can't get enough of you
Expressing an insatiable desire for the other person.
You don't have to be sad like me
Advising against being sad like the speaker.
When I ask how are you
Inquiring about the other person's well-being again.
You don't have to do like I do
Suggesting the other person not to follow the speaker's actions.
When I'm falling in love with you
Admitting to falling in love with the other person.
'Cause it's true, I can't get enough of you
Reaffirming the intense attraction and desire for more.
Can't get enough of you
Expressing a repeated inability to get enough of the other person.
You don't have to be bad like me
Reiterating the advice against negative behavior.
When I ask how are you
Checking in on the other person's well-being once again.
You don't have to care what I think
Emphasizing that the individual's opinion doesn't have to matter.
When I ask what you do
Asking about the other person's actions or choices once more.
'Cause it's true, I can't get enough of you
Reaffirming the intense attraction and desire for more.
You don't have to be sad like me
Advising against being sad like the speaker.
When I ask how are you
Inquiring about the other person's well-being yet again.
You don't have to do like I do
Suggesting the other person not to follow the speaker's actions.
When I'm falling in love with you
Admitting to falling in love with the other person again.
But it's true, I can't get enough of you
Reaffirming the intense attraction and desire for more.
