Genius Annotation

“Coming Down” is the eleventh track from Halsey’s debut studio album, Badlands. Long before the album’s official release, the song was posted onto Twitter, linking a Soundcloud account under the name “Badlands Radio.”

This track draws many parallels to “Colors,” which appears right next to this song in the standard version of the LP, where Halsey also mentions particular characteristics about her lover, especially with the usage of drugs and the topic of religion.
