Karma
Karma's Lesson: Love's Gamble and Life's Consequence
Lyrics
Another morning and I'm not alone
Expressing waking up in the morning and not feeling alone.
So I wake up and then I grab my phone
Getting up and checking the phone after waking up.
I shut the door and then I'm on my way
Leaving and starting the day with a positive outlook.
Can't help but smile on this sunny day
Feeling happy on a sunny day.
Again I wake up and it's not just me
Realizing that there is someone else in the morning routine.
Although, it's weird, I'm feeling differently
Experiencing a different emotion and feeling unusual.
A stirring sense in me I've never felt
Feeling a new and unfamiliar emotion.
She played this hand that I had dealt
Referring to someone playing a role in the speaker's life choices.
I didn't think it meant much
Initially downplaying the significance of the situation.
I guess it hurt just a touch
Acknowledging a slight emotional impact.
I thought it through, I think I'm just lazy
Considering the possibility of laziness in decision-making.
But maybe I'm crazy
Contemplating the idea of being crazy.
This feeling's scratching away
Describing a persistent and bothersome feeling.
It's lasting too many days
Feeling the emotional impact for an extended period.
I guess I fell for you
Expressing falling in love with someone.
Well maybe that's karma
Suggesting that the emotional turmoil might be karma.
Now here's the problem that I have composed
Addressing a problem of maintaining emotional distance.
I taught myself to never get too close
Teaching oneself not to get too emotionally involved.
But turning tides don't ever feel so good
Acknowledging that facing challenges can be rewarding.
I'll take the hit with pride, as I should
Accepting consequences with pride.
My conscious knew that this is how it'd be
Being aware of the expected outcome.
But twenty-twenty isn't how I see
Reflecting on a different perspective in hindsight.
I'm hoping maybe I can learn from this
Expressing hope for learning from the experience.
And finally forget this mess
Desiring to move on from a messy situation.
I didn't think it meant much
Reiterating the initial underestimation of the situation.
I guess it hurt just a touch
Recognizing a slight emotional impact.
I thought it through, I think I'm just lazy
Revisiting the possibility of laziness in decision-making.
But maybe I'm crazy
Reconsidering the idea of being crazy.
This feeling's scratching away
Repeating the description of a persistent and bothersome feeling.
It's lasting too many days
Reiterating the prolonged emotional impact.
I guess I fell for you
Reaffirming the experience of falling in love.
Well maybe that's karma
Repeating the suggestion that the emotional turmoil might be karma.
I tell myself it was worth it, I cannot deny
Asserting that the experience was worth it despite consequences.
But consequences can hurt, it's an eye for an eye
Acknowledging that consequences can be reciprocal.
A bittersweet taste had lingered but now it's long gone
Describing the fading of bittersweet memories.
Those feelings I had forgotten
Indicating the successful forgetting of past feelings.
Yeah now those feelings are gone
Confirming the absence of those forgotten feelings.
I didn't think it meant much
Reiterating the initial underestimation of the situation.
I guess it hurt just a touch
Recognizing a slight emotional impact.
I thought it through, I think I'm just lazy
Revisiting the possibility of laziness in decision-making.
But maybe I'm crazy
Reconsidering the idea of being crazy.
This feeling's scratching away
Repeating the description of a persistent and bothersome feeling.
It's lasting too many days
Reiterating the prolonged emotional impact.
I guess I fell for you
Reaffirming the experience of falling in love.
Well maybe that's karma
Repeating the suggestion that the emotional turmoil might be karma.
