Şarkı sözleri : U2. Bad.

Bono: "This is...this is a song about the city we grew up in. A song about Dublin city. And a song about a drug called heroin that's tearing our city in two...that's tearing the...the heart out of the city of Dublin...tearing the heart out of the city of Chicago. Rich people stuff dollars in the back of their pocket while poor men lie in gutters with needles stuck in their arms. Screw them, I say. This is a song about a friend of mine who was given on his 21st birthday enough heroin into his bloodstream to kill him. This is a song called Bad."

If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender
Dislocate


If I could throw this
Lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
Through the rain


If I could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the night
To the day
Into the half-light
Through the flame


Let it go
And so to fade away
To let it go
And so fade away


I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
I'm not sleeping


(Shhhhh)


If they should ask, well maybe they'd
Tell me what I should say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes


If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go...


This desperation
Separation
Condemnation
In temptation
Revelation
Isolation
Desolation
Isolation
Let it go


And so fade away
To let it go
And so fade....fade...
Fade away...


Not fade away, no, no
Not fade away


I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
I'm not sleeping


Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who's gonna hang a name on you
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who's gonna hang a name on you
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who's gonna hang a name on you


Ohh I'm pleased to meet you
I hope you guess my name
Oh yeah, I'm pleased ot meet you
I hope you guess my name
Oh yeah (sleep on it)


Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who's gonna hang a name on you
Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
Who's gonna hang a name on you


Let it go
And so (fade away)
Let it go
(And so fade away)


Bono: "Thank you."
