Never Better
Navigating Love's Turmoil: Never Better by Bad Blood Orchestra
Lyrics
Let's start this over again
Expressing a desire to reset or restart a relationship or situation.
So far it felt like a bad trip
Describing past experiences as negative, akin to a distressing journey.
Or like a noose around my neck
Comparing the situation to a constricting force, possibly symbolizing emotional burden.
I kept pretending I'm not myself
Conveying a sense of disconnection or pretending to be someone else.
I wish you weren't so perfect
Expressing discomfort with someone's perfection and its impact on the speaker.
It makes me coming on and on
Alluding to repeated and intense attraction despite reservations.
You said I wasn't so worth it
Recalling a statement about the speaker not being worthy.
But you are coming, on and on
Highlighting the persistence of the other person's attraction despite negative remarks.
I tried to shake this image off my head
Attempting to overcome a persistent mental image or thought.
It never felt so wrong to share my bed with you
Expressing discomfort or regret about sharing intimacy with the other person.
Love never meant to look or feel so bad
Reflecting on the unexpected negativity associated with love.
It must've been a thing or two I said to you
Suggesting that past words may have contributed to the negative feelings.
Somehow you made a weekend
Noting the brevity of a positive experience, possibly a weekend, turning sour quickly.
Last for less than one hour
Highlighting the disappointment of a short-lived positive moment.
I can't believe you could be so sour
Expressing disbelief at the sudden negativity or bitterness.
Let's start this over again
Reiterating the desire to restart the situation or relationship.
It comes back in the dark
Describing a recurrence of negative feelings, possibly in challenging times.
I'm addicted to the thought
Expressing addiction or attachment to self-destructive thoughts.
Of tearing myself apart
Symbolizing a desire for self-harm or internal conflict.
It comes back in the dark
Reiterating the recurrence of negative emotions in the dark or difficult times.
Real beauty lies cold in the riverbank
Suggesting that true beauty is found in cold and harsh realities.
I tried to shake this image off my head
Repetition of the attempt to overcome persistent thoughts or images.
It never felt so wrong to share my bed with you
Reiterating discomfort with sharing intimacy with the other person.
Love never meant to look or feel so bad
Reflecting on the unexpected negativity associated with love.
It must've been a thing or two I said to you
Suggesting that past words may have contributed to the negative feelings.
I tried to shake this image off my head
Repetition of the attempt to overcome persistent thoughts or images.
It never felt so wrong to share my bed with you
Reiterating discomfort with sharing intimacy with the other person.
Love never meant to look or feel so bad
Reflecting on the unexpected negativity associated with love.
It must've been a thing or two I said to you

I tried to shake this image off my head

It never felt so wrong to share my bed with you
