“Bad Kind of Butterflies” sees Camila confess that despite being in a happy relationship, there’s someone else stuck in her head. The bass-heavy track appears to narrate the moment when Camila and Matthew Hussey ended their relationship, after dating for over a year. The break-up was spurred by Camila’s feelings for collaborator Shawn Mendes, with the pair becoming a couple not long after. At her Los Angeles pop-up on December 6, 2019, Camila confessed that she hasn’t listened to the track...

Bad Kind of Butterflies lyrics

Come here and sit next to me
Don't look at me while I'm breakin'
After what I'm gonna say
I understand if you hate me
What do I do when I love you and want somebody else?
What do I lose if I don't choose and keep it to myself?
I got bad, bad, bad kind of butterflies
Like when you got something to hide
Lies, telling you that I'm alright
Tonight, tonight
Bad, bad, butterflies in my chest
There's something I gotta confess
Yes, somebody's stuck in my head
And I, and I
I know I said we were friends
And when I said that, I meant it (swear I meant it)
Somewhere between 'not again'
It became more than just a friendship
What do I do when I love you and want somebody else?
What do I lose if I don't choose and keep it to myself?
I got bad, bad, bad kind of butterflies
Like when you got something to hide
Lies, telling you that I'm alright
Tonight, tonight
Bad, bad, butterflies in my chest
There's something I gotta confess
Yes, somebody's stuck in my head
And I, and I
Come here and sit next to me
You tell me, "Baby, just say it" (say it, say it)
Warnin' me, "It's a mistake"
I just know I gotta make it
And I got bad, bad, bad kind of butterflies
Like when you got something to hide
Lies, telling you that I'm alright
Tonight, tonight (alright)
Bad, bad, butterflies in my chest
There's something I gotta confess
Yes, somebody's stuck in my head
And I, and I (in my head, yeah)
