Bad Things

(album: Cults - 2011)

Bad things happen to the people you love
And you'll find yourself praying up to heaven above
But honestly I never had much sympathy
Cause those bad things, I always saw them coming for me

I'm gonna run run away, run, run away, run away
Run away and never come back
Run run away, run, run away, run away
Show em that your color is black

Bad things happen to the people you love
And you'll find yourself praying up to heaven above
But honestly I never had much sympathy
Cause those bad things, I always saw them coming for me

It would take some time just to see me shine
For the whole world to see me here in all of my light
But honestly I've given up on all the fight
Till one day I'll have you here wrapped up in my light

I'm gonna run run away, run, run away, run away
Run away and never come back
Run run away, run, run away, run away
Show em that your color is black

I'm gonna run run away, run, run away, run away
Run away and never come back
Run run away, run, run away, run away
Show em that your color is black

[Semi-unintelligible speaking]

Bad things happen to the people you love
And you'll find yourself praying up to heaven above
But honestly I never had much sympathy
Cause those bad things, I always saw them coming for me

Bad things happen to the people you love
And you'll find yourself calling up to heaven above
But honestly I never had much sympathy
Cause next time you're praying, you'll be praying for me
