This is the official release of Rihanna‘s “Disturbia video,” the sixth single from her third album, “Good Girls Gone Bad.”
Explaining the meaning of the album title, Rihanna said, “Bad is not sleazy. Bad has its own term to every individual and in my case it just means I’ve gotten a little rebellious on the album, broken out of my shell and I’m taking risks… Michael Jackson ‘Bad’ kind of way.”
Indeed!
Written by Chris Brown, Andre Merritt and Robert Allen, ‘Disturbia’ is a fast and upbeat pop/dance rhythmic song, following in the footsteps of ‘Please Don’t Stop the Music.’ However, the song takes on a dark tone with lyrics of mental anguish and confusion.

What’s wrong with me?
Why do I feel like this?
I’m going crazy now.
No more guessin’ ….
can’t even get started
Nothing heard nothing said
Can’t even speak about it.
I’ma light on my head
Don’t wanna think about it.
Feels like I’m going insane
yeaaa.
It’s a theif in the night to come and grab you.
It can creep on inside you and Consume you.
A disease of the mind it can control you.
It’s too close for comfort.
And in the bright lights.
you’re in the city of wonder.
In compared nights.
Watch it can make you go under.
You better think twice.
Portray to follow the ups.
So if you must falter be wise.
Your minds in disturbia.
It’s like a dark decision light.
in disturbia
Am I scarin’ you now.
Disturbia
Gettin used to what you like.
Disturbia Disturbia
Faded pictures on the wall.
It’s like they’re talkin to me
Disconnected on call.
The phone tell me to ring.
I gotta get up or figure this sh** out.
it’s too close for comfort ohhhh.
It’s a theif in the night to come and grab you.
It can creep on inside you and Consume you.
A disease of the mind it can control you.
I feel like a monster.
I’m going crazy now.

Nothing heard nothing said
Can’t even speak about it.
