Songwriter Dan Smith has revealed in a comment on his Instagram the inspiration for “No Bad Days”:
This song is about my amazing aunt who died in 2019.
[Verse 1]
When you got the call that no one wants to have
Sick of hospitals to paper over cracks
You weren't scared at all, but never turned away
Well, fuck 'em, fuck 'em, fuck 'em, fuck 'em all
'Stop!'
Stop signs, run 'em, bills, don't pay 'em, who would care at all?
Burn your money, ain't worth nothing on your curtain call
[Chorus]
There'll be no bad days, there'll be no bad days
There'll be no bad days, you'll have no more bad days
When you're gone, gone, there'll be no bad days
You'll have no more bad days
[Verse 2]
So, your future's lost, but they can't take your past
And you said, "No tears 'round here anymore"
But I ain't crying, that's you crying
Well, fuck 'em, fuck 'em, fuck 'em, fuck 'em all
[Chorus]
'Cause there'll be no bad days, there'll be no bad days
There'll be no bad days, you'll have no more bad days
When you're gone, gone, there'll be no bad days
You'll have no more bad days
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Stop!
There'll be no bad days, there'll be no bad days
There'll be no bad days, you'll have no more bad days
When you're gone, gone, there'll be no bad days
You'll have no more bad days
[Outro]
No more bad days, no bad days (Bad days)
(Gone, gone)
There'll be no bad days, you'll have no more bad days

I wrote this with some friends after somebody in my family had passed away. I wasn’t intending to write a song about that, but we were in the studio, and this just fell out as I was sitting at the vocoder and singing through the vocoder. We wanted to keep it really simple. It’s certainly the saddest...
