Bad Suns - Life Was Easier When I Only Cared About Me Lyrics






Strolling the streets in this ghost of a town
And my future looking bleak, my head filled with sound, yeah
As I lost signal on the train underground
And my thoughts came flooding in, I started to drown, yeah

You caught me by surprise, changed my destination, oh yeah
Kaleidoscopic eyes forming constellations, yeah

I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me

I was spinning around and around in an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Your love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me
When I only cared about me
When I only cared about me

Missing the nights when my friends were around
We start going unsteady, cruel merry-go-round, yeah
Lit my own fuse, I could not blow it out
I was strapped to a rocket aimed right at the ground, yeah

You caught me by surprise, changed my destination, oh yeah
Kaleidoscopic eyes forming constellations, yeah

I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me

I was spinning around and around in an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Your love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me
When I only cared about me
When I only cared about me
Life was easier when I only cared about me

(No reason to breathe, no light I could see)
(No reason to breathe, no light I could see)
(No reason to breathe, I had no light I could see)

I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me

I was spinning around and around in an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Your love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me
When I only cared about me
When I only cared about me
Life was easier when I only cared about me
When I only cared about me, oh, oh
I hope the pain never ends
Your love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me

    Bad suns is one of the few bands that preserves its originality, many bands during transition lose their originality. This song needs more views and recognition due to its indie nature. Congrats

    I want them to be famous but I also want them to stay as my little treasure

  47. M.... ....

    excited for this album!! :D

  48. O.... ....

    I've listened to the entire album just a few days ago and it goes without saying that i was left absolutely surprised at the entire thing. I kept re-listening to the different songs because i couldn't decide on a favourite; all were so good. But i think i looped this one the most since it sounds fresh to the ear. I esp liked the part when it goes "i was spinning around and around in an ocean of grief, your ladder came down to the sea"; absolutely satisfying.

  49. J.... ....

    I LOVE THIS

  50. P.... ....

    wow this song is a banger it goes right to the playlist

  51. A.... ....

    got an ad for this song and absolutely love it

  52. M.... P....

    The last album wasn’t my favorite but this song has me so hyped!! I missed blasting you guys ♥️

  53. P.... S....

    Insane!

  54. L.... C....

    Calidad de contenido🤌🏽

  55. Y.... E....

    Best song !

  56. J.... H....

    Obsessed ❤️❤️❤️

  57. J.... H....

    I love you bad suns

  58. O.... F....

    FLIP. Whhhyyy are these guys so amazing.

  59. C.... R....

    I hate to be this guy, but there’s an inflection to his voice that reminds me of something I’ve heard before, but I can’t place it. Not in a plagiaristic way, it just feels familiar, but now it’s killing me because I wanna figure it out. Either way, I love this song and I’ll keep listening to it until I figure it out…and then keep listening to it 😝

    EDIT: I figured it out, it reminds me of the vocalist from The Temper Trap

  60. M.... P....

    Suggestion: do this with each member of Bad Suns. Like just Gav solo walking with the same background and all

  61. R.... ....

    How is that each single is better than the last??

  62. T.... ....

    Am I the only one that can't play most of their other songs on Spotify?

  63. A.... M....

    🔥

  64. B.... T....

    Me thinking "how long is this greenscreen room?!" loll

  65. L.... B....

  66. N.... D....

  67. V.... X....

    hmmm... yeah maybe ocean of grief makes more sense than oceanic reef lmao

  68. L.... ....

    I love you guys

  70. T.... ....

  71. b.... ....

  72. G.... ....
