Badthings Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Salt inside the cut, keep it up
Rub it in and kiss me
Is it love?
Am I bound to you or just addicted?
Been on thin ice my whole life
Don’t make a difference
Is it wrong that I still believe you’re not the villain?
[Pre-Chorus]
And I wasn't gonna say it
But it’s getting too loud
Looking at me crazy
But I’m happy now
[Chorus]
Flames burn in my imagination
Hate, hurt, that’s where I feel the safest
Play, destroy, the bad things bring me joy
Play, destroy, the bad things bring me joy
[Verse 2]
Arms around my back
Didn’t ask for the right direction
I attract what the devil sees and shys away from
Leave me be
I don’t want your help, I don’t want your touch
I’m not getting freed, no
I’m completе, need the chaos
I don’t need protection
[Pre-Chorus]
And I wasn’t gonna say it
But it’s getting too loud
Looking at mе crazy
But I’m happy now
[Chorus]
Flames burn in my imagination
Hate, hurt, that’s where I feel the safest
Play, destroy, the bad things bring me joy
Play, destroy, the bad things bring me joy
[Bridge]
On a stainless steel table
With the fingers poking at me
They surround me, I’m the infant in the cradle
Suffocate me, baby, break me
I can take it, can I take it?
[Chorus]
Flames burn in my imagination
Hate, hurt, that’s where I feel the safest
Play, destroy, the bad things bring me joy
Play, destroy, the bad things bring me joy

What inspired the lyric “hate, hurt, that’s where I feel the safest?”
Honestly, when I wrote bathings I was in a pretty awful place mentally. My whole life I’ve felt like I create chaos out of thin air just to feel something. I’d rather feel terrible than feel nothing at all. At the time of writing bathings, my life was in complete shambles, but I was feeling so many...
What was it like to work with Bardo and Cole Hutzler on this track?
I love the Beauty School Dropout boys!! That was actually our first session together, and they’re just so talented and inspiring. We made the song within a few hours and we all loved it. Cole and Bardo are so kind and welcoming, I hope to make more songs with them in the future.
