“Honestly I'm lost in my ways. Constantly I push you away to save you”
— A deeply vulnerable track about self-awareness, toxic habits, and the painful choice of pushing someone away for their own good.
[Intro]
Yeah, girl, I'm bad for you
[Chorus]
Honestly I'm lost in my ways
Constantly I push you away to save you (To save)
Honestly I'm lost in my ways
Constantly I push you away to save you (To save you)
Ah (To save you)
Ah
Constantly I push you away to save you (To save)
[Verse 1]
You don't want no part of this
Nothing is harder than when you're laying in my bed
Yeah, you're in my head
Don't want no part of this
We shouldn't have started this
[Pre Chorus]
Didn't they tell you what I am?
Yeah, girl, I'm bad for ya, bad for ya, bad for ya
Didn't they tell you what I am? Yeah, girl, I'm bad for ya
[Chorus]
Honestly I'm lost in my ways
Constantly I push you away to save you (To save)
Honestly I'm lost in my ways
Constantly I push you away to save you (To save you)
Ah (To save you)
Ah
Constantly I push you away to save you (To save you)
[Verse 2]
This might come across the wrong way
But I'm not in that place and I can't pretend to love you
She knows she's easy to love
Couple leaves and I'm leaving the dust
Me time with the bees and I'm buzzed
[Pre-Chorus]
Ah
Ah
Didn't they tell you what I am?
Yeah, girl, I'm bad for you
[Chorus]
Honestly I'm lost in my ways
Constantly I push you away to save you (To save you)
Honestly I'm lost in my ways
Constantly I push you away to save you
[Bridge]
She's on fire
And I can't put the flame out tonight
She's on fire
And I can't put the flame out tonight
[Chorus]
Honestly I'm lost in my ways
Constantly I push you away to save you (t
To save you)
Honestly I'm lost in my ways (In my ways)
Constantly I push you away to save you
"Bad For You" by ZAYN is a raw, introspective track from his 'KONNAKOL (Deluxe)' album. The song deals with the heavy burden of emotional unavailability. Instead of leading someone on, the protagonist admits his flaws ("lost in my ways") and deliberately creates distance as an act of protection for the other person. The lyrics beautifully capture the internal conflict of wanting someone close but realizing your current mental space might only bring them down.
