"Such feelings are dangerous"

00:00 / 04:24
As with the previous song on the album, simplicity is absolutely key here. That and synths. I really wanted to play around with what a lot of pop and hip hop music does, using the same notes/chord progression repeating throughout the entire song, but adding layers to differentiate between verses/choruses etc. It works to great effect in my opinion, with the lyrics echoing said simplicity. Speaking of which:
​
Coming to the realisation that someone you once held on a pedestal is in actual fact very bad for you is an extremely tough life lesson. A character building lesson to be sure, but a tough one none the less.
Such feelings are dangerous
Such feelings, they hold some truth
Such feelings ingrained in us
Such feelings in the bloom of youth
You’re bad for me
C.
You’re bad for me
Such feelings, they ebb and flow
Such feelings intensify
Such feelings, they’ll never show
Such feelings from a time gone by
You’re bad for me
