Slow, Fast, Bad

Intro

Slow. Fast. Bad. (oh)

Slow. Fast. Bad. (yeah, yeah)

Verse

Slow like a secret, slow like a matchbook glow

Fingers chart the map of the places I don't go

You breathe me in, low and dangerous, soft as a blade

Counting every small surrender, every coin I've paid

Uh-huh, you lean in, close enough to claim

Silk and scuff, a crooked grin, you say my name

Slow like syrup, pull me down, slow like a tide

You push, I pull — we dance on the edge, alive, alive

Pre-chorus

But then you speed up, engine hum, switch to a sprint

A glance becomes a chase, a kiss becomes a hint

Faster, faster, break the silence, break the rules

I should run — but I don't, I'm a map with no compass, fool

Chorus

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) oh-oh

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) yeah

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) na-na

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) hey, hey

Verse

Fast like a rumor, fast like a midnight car

Your hands write a warning on my skin — love, scar, star

We move in quickfire, sparks thrown like dice in a bar

Laughing at the law of staying safe, we go too far

Uh, skrrt, breathless, pockets full of dare

You bite the rim of trouble, grin and pull me there

Fast like a secret half-told, fast like a plan

We burn the slow instructions, just improvise the dance

Pre-chorus

And when you slow again the world tilts, soft and wide

A hush that presses gold across the loud inside

Slow then fast, slow then fast — I'm learning to keep time

You're the only clock that spins me out and makes me mine

Chorus

Slow, fast, bad (oh) slow, fast, bad (yeah)

Slow, fast, bad (ooh) slow, fast, bad (uh-huh)

Slow, fast, bad (na-na-na) slow, fast, bad (come on)

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) slow, fast, bad

Bridge

We are a crooked rhythm, kiss that bites and heals

A gamble with a lucky coin that always feels surreal

Say you're my danger, say you're my plan gone mad

Call me what you want — slow, fast, bad (call me)

Chorus

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) oh-oh

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) yeah

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) na-na

Slow, fast, bad (slow, fast, bad) hey
