Karma for the Day
Coldfinger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't say nothing
And don't need to try
So you're going away... away
Many landscapes in your eyes
Don't say nothing
And don't even try
So you're going away
Our karma for the day
You need to move
You're feeling blue
You need to move
You're feeling blue
Many landscapes in your eyes
Don't say nothing
And don't even try
So you're going away
It's our karma for the day
Our karma for the day
You need to move
You're feeling blue
You need to move
You need to move,
You're feeling blue
I'm so confused
And I don't know nothing anymore...
And I don't know nothing anymore...
And I don't know nothing anymore...
And I don't know nothing anymore...
You need to move,
You're feeling blue
I'm so confused
You go away,
I'm gonna stay
...it's our karma for the day
...for the day
Our karma for the day
For the day.
The lyrics to Coldfinger's song "Karma for the Day" seem to speak about the end of a relationship or a change that is coming. The "landscapes in your eyes" may symbolize memories or experiences that the person is carrying with them. The repetition of "don't say nothing" and "don't even try" may imply that there is a sense of resignation, that nothing can be done to salvage the situation. They are going away and it seems to be an inevitable karmic consequence of their actions or choices, "our karma for the day."
The chorus encourages the person to move, to take action and perhaps seek change or new experiences. The repetition of "you need to move" emphasizes the importance of taking action to alleviate the feeling of sadness or depression, "you're feeling blue." The song ends with the singer expressing confusion and a sense of being lost, unsure of what to do or say.
