Bad Idea Lyrics

I've been outta sight
I've been worried 'bout you lately

Wishin' you would come and save me

Tryna get control of it (Yeah, yeah)

    i think this song means that a guy broke up with her and she needs someone/something to numb the pain so it doesn't hurt as much. she can't let go of him so she needs it, even though she's trying her best to forget about it, him, and her mind. she knows it's gonna be a bad idea to bring something to numb the pain

    I think that its about feeling uncomfortable with a new person that is good for you, so you feel that you want to go back to someone who is familiar but toxic. you want them to numb the pain and make you forget about everything, but you know it's a bad idea.

    I think this song is about needing some one to escape the shi she’s going through and she needs to be saved “wishin u would come and save me”

    I think the song could be possibly about a ex boyfriend who broke her heart and is looking for something or someone to numb the pain cause she’s losing herself and her mind trying to forget about it, forget about him, forget about herself.

    Bad idea is simply about finding someone else. She’s talking about having a bad idea ( obviously) and it’s like she’s asking someone to help her escape the pain from losing someone.

    I got a bad idea, lets take a little time away represents her possibly looking back at her "bad idea" of splitting with Mac Miller. Maybe she feels like if she stayed with him she could have prevented the overdose. And then finding someone quick to numb the pain would be her quick engagement to Pete.
