Texten som mår dåligt
Would appreciate some help with this:
The main character has just been scammed by a mafia boss and this is the moment he realizes it. He is hyperventilating while listening to some hard rock band:
Texten som mår dåligt träffar honom hårt. Text när
den mår som sämst.
Thanks for your help

El desquiciante texto (recibido) le pegó duro. Textar (justamente) al sentirse peor. (en el momento en que peor se siente).

Those nauseating lyrics (that left him feeling queasy)
I think the phrase is used figuratively as the lyrics don't feel bad, rather the listener is 'sent reeling' upon realising the scam.
Note that I had to search a while for a Spanish song with the lyrics of 'se sienta mal', but without a string of swear-words

The poorly lyrics
I think we need to accept that the author is actually ascribing the feelings to the text itself, as if it were a sentient being.
Something went wrong...
