Bad Lyrics by Ben Eales

A Matter Of Love And Death

2022

As I hear the click of the lighter
And the wind bums out the smoke
As the flame finally catches
And I hear that happy choke
Part of me knows
People don't think I should like you
All my best friends are mistrusting
And I see how your friends look at me
I don't care if they're judging
Maybe that shows

They tell me love is blind, and you can't see it
A storm is coming and you can't be it
Everyone who sees us wants to convince me, ooh, they're trying
But baby, if this is bad

If this is bad then I like it
And I think that bad might just be my new favourite thing
If this is bad, what is lying
Cuz honesty's a virtuе but not loving you's dishonesty
If this is truly the worst I can do, the worst that can happеn to me
Then bad's what I'll be

Things are getting pretty rocky
Like how a push comes to a shove
Not a single thing can stop us
Not even fate in the stars above
Nothing could go wrong
Who cares if my family hates you
That might make me like you more
Who cares if this love's forbidden
Why hide away behind closed doors
Oh, it's been so long

They tell me love is blind, and you can't see it
A storm is here and you might just be it
Everyone who sees us wants to convince me, ooh, they're trying
But baby, if this is bad

If this is bad then I like it
And I think that bad might just be my new favourite thing
If this is bad, what is lying
Cuz honesty's a virtue but not loving you's dishonesty
If this is truly the worst I can do, the worst that can happen to me

Baby, you might be my type
I'm looking at exactly what I like
Lucky for me the only one I'll ever see wants to be mine
And through reflections of glass and of pools
Oh, how love can turn one to a fool
Oh, how the gods can be so cruel
Let my old life be sacrific'd
Call me but love and I'll be new baptised
As the fates would have it, passing in the storm's eye
Star crossed lovers, you and I

If this is bad then I like it
And I think that bad might just be my new favourite thing
If this is bad, what is lying
Cuz honesty's a virtue but not loving you's dishonesty
If this is truly the worst I can do, the worst that can happen to me

If this is bad then I like it
And I think that bad might just be my new favourite thing
If this is bad, what is lying
Cuz honesty's a virtue but not loving you's dishonesty
If this is truly the worst I can do, the worst that can happen to me
Then bad's what I'll be
