What Goes Around
Domenica Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You did it to yourself

You're trapped inside your anger
You're trapped inside your mind
You hurt the ones around you
Now you're alone at night
Noone is going to save you
Noone is going to try
Tell yourself what you have to
And keep on living lies

What goes around, it comes around
You've fallen down--it's not my problem

You wanted, you needed
You took it by yourself
You're cold and blackhearted
You did it to yourself
You've broken your promise
You shut your own self out
You wanted, you needed
You did it to yourself

What goes around...

You did it to yourself (No one can save you)




It's all your fault
Now your world crashes down

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Domenica's song "What Goes Around" are essentially a damning indictment of someone who has made bad choices and is now facing the consequences of those decisions. The singer addresses this person directly, telling them that they are trapped inside their own anger and mind, and that they have hurt the people around them. The person is now alone at night, with no one to save or help them. The singer makes it clear that this individual has brought about their own downfall, pointing out that they took what they wanted and needed without concern for others, and that they have broken promises and shut themselves out. The chorus reinforces the idea that karma will eventually catch up with this person: what goes around comes around. They have fallen down, but it's not the singer's problem.


The song contains a sense of frustration, anger, and disappointment, as the singer seems to be someone who has been close to this person and has watched them make mistake after mistake. There is a feeling of finality in the lyrics, as if the singer has given up on trying to help this person. The tone is harsh but honest, conveying a sense of tough love. The song can be interpreted as a warning to others who may be on the path to self-destruction.
