Ed Sheeran - Bad Habits Meaning

Song Released: 2021

Bad Habits Lyrics

(One, two, three, four)
Ooh, ooh

Every time you come around, you know I can't say no
Every time the sun goes down, I let you take control
I can feel the paradise before my world implodes
And tonight had something wonderful

My bad habits...

   Despite what many may think, it is about putting his daughter, Lyra, to bed. "Every time you come around, you know I cant say no. Every time the sun comes down, I let you take control." When his daughter asks for him to put her to sleep, he sometimes stays in there for hours, and it is a bad habit. Check the documentary if you don't believe me.

   This song doesn't really have a meaning because it is pop rubbish mass produced for teenage girls to get excited about. This could have been written by a group of chimps throwing bananas at a dartboard and no one would know the difference. His bad habit is making noise and calling it music. Real music with deep meaning can be found from the 1981 classic hit hold on loosely by 38 special. This song has meaning, and that meaning is how to properly give a handjob. While some idiots disagree with this and say otherwise, they are in fact wrong. Especially the one stupid idiot who commented in 2011.

   I think Sheeran is reciting all the bad things he used to do in the past - drugs, most definitely that would lead him to do all the crazy things.

   We all have bad habits. Nobody on this planet is perfect. In this song he’s expressing his bad habits. Maybe it’s drugs as stated by the post above or maybe something else. Either way until he/or she figures out what triggers these bad habits and understands the trigger they will never heal and become free of the habit. Get down on your knees and pray. Ask God to help you overcome your addictions. He will.

   I think he is talking about drugs, because using drugs is a bad habit. And in the lyrics, there are a lot of parts that reference that.
