Bad in a Good Way
Embracing the Depths: Unveiling Life's Contradictions with Brian Bulger
Lyrics
Feels like I'm on the last bend
Expressing a feeling of nearing the end or a challenging situation.
Of the deep end
Suggesting being at a critical point, possibly emotionally intense.
But the drowning has
Despite difficulties, the experience of drowning has been oddly satisfying.
Been just fine
Reflecting on the paradox that drowning has been enjoyable or acceptable.
And when my ears pop
Describing a sensation, possibly related to pressure changes, like during a deep dive.
And the shell shock
Mentioning a state of shock, perhaps from a sudden stop or change.
Of this pit stop
Referring to a pause or break in the journey that allows for mental liberation.
Frees my mind
Suggesting that the pause or break has a positive impact on the mind.
I'll be alright
Expressing confidence in overcoming challenges and being okay.
I can go there now that I've stared death in the face
Claiming the ability to face difficult situations after confronting death.
Doesn't it always seem like the parts that made us laugh now make us cry
Observing a common life experience where joyous memories turn sorrowful.
Doesn't it always seem like the villain pulling the strings is a regular guy
Pointing out the unexpected nature of villains in life being ordinary individuals.
You and me have gone bad in a good way
Describing a shared experience of deviating from societal norms in a positive way.
I promise
Reassuring a commitment to the unconventional path taken.
The kerosene wipes clean what we couldn't bear to tarnish
Symbolizing a cleansing, using kerosene, of things considered too precious to tarnish.
I'll be alright
Reiterating confidence in overcoming challenges and being okay.
I can go there now that I've stared death in the face
Reaffirming the ability to confront difficult situations after facing death.
There's a conundrum in the wisdom of my spirit
Highlighting a dilemma in the wisdom gained from life experiences.
Whitewashed hymns and the deadliest sins pushed me to my limit
Referring to conflicting influences such as religious hymns and sinful behaviors.
But when you deconstruct you're shit out of luck for a minute
Commenting on the challenges of breaking down one's beliefs or values.
But after the last bend you can break it all down to rebuild it
Suggesting the potential for rebuilding and growth after reaching a breaking point.
You and me have gone bad in a good way, I promise
Reiterating the shared experience of deviating from societal norms in a positive way.
