  ## Background
  
  In an interview with Popjustice, Halsey confirmed that she submitted Badlands twelve days after expected, being the song written and produced the day the album was initially planned to be out. She described the track as self-aware, considering it a synopsis for the album and as she said, "what I thought the record was missing". She also expressed her interest in people buying the deluxe version of the record on purpose for them to get the track.
  
  ## Composition
  
  The song is described as a "brooding electropop track." The track is written about Halsey's experience with mental health, her bipolar disorder and her feeling out of step with the rest of society.
