Bastille, MNEK - ​bad_news lyrics

Bad news like a sucker punch
What do you say?
Air knocked out of my lungs, your cue to stay
When you hear something difficult
Don't back away
Some people say nothing, good ones engage

Don't turn your back on me
Don't bury your head deep
Just cause you don't know what to say

It's true that it kicks you in the teeth
When you are least expecting bad news
Oh, it beats you black and blue
Before you see it coming

Bad news like a sucker punch blew me away
People fill the streets like
Nothing has changed
Clock hands tick along they
Don't look the same
Planes fly overhead like any old day

Don't turn your back on me
Don't bury your head deep
Just cause you don't know what to say

It's true that it kicks you in the teeth
When you are least expecting bad news
Oh, it beats you black and blue
Before you see it coming

Maybe I just want some words of distraction
I feel like I'm being consumed
Maybe I'm expecting the perfect reaction
To pull me back
(back, back, back, back, back, back, back)

It's true that it kicks you in the teeth
When you are least expecting bad news
Oh, it beats you black and blue
Before you see it co- it's true (So true)
That it kicks you in the teeth
When you are least expecting bad news (True)
Oh, it beats you black and blue
Before you see it coming

Before, before you see it coming
Before, before you see it coming
Before, before you see you see it coming
Bad news before, before you see it coming
Before, before you see it coming
Before, before you see it you see it coming
Bad news before, before you see it coming
Before, before you see it coming
Before, before you see it you see it coming
Bad news
