What Goes Around Comes Around
Lost Gravity Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can you remember
All the things they used to say?
Can you remember
All the games they made you play?

On your own to save your soul
Believe their lies and they'll crush your faith
Just about to lose control
Don't give it back, you'll see them pay

What goes around comes around

Hey you,
You're heading into disaster
I'll make
Your walls cave in so much faster

Can you remember
All the games they made you play?
Can you remember
All your dreams they tried to cage?

On your own to save your soul
Believe their lies and they'll crush your faith
Just about to lose control
Don't give it back, you'll see them pay

What goes around comes around

Hey you,
You're heading into disaster
I'll make
Your walls cave in so much faster

What goes around comes around
What goes around comes around
What goes around comes around

solo

Hey you,
You're heading into disaster
I'll make
Your walls cave in so much faster

Hey you - what goes around comes around




Hey you - what goes around comes around
Hey you - what goes around comes around

Overall Meaning

The song "What Goes Around Comes Around" by Lost Gravity is a warning against trusting and following the wrong people. The lyrics ask if the listener can recall the lies they were told and the games they were forced to play in the past. Despite pressure to conform to these falsehoods, the song advises not to return control to these manipulators, as the cycle of harm they perpetrate will come back around to them in the end. The warning culminates in the chorus, with the refrain "What goes around comes around," suggesting that those who mistreat others can expect to receive similar treatment later on.


The verses of "What Goes Around Comes Around" offer a specifically personal perspective, reminding the listener of their own experiences with those who tried to undermine their sense of self. Lines like "On your own to save your soul / Believe their lies and they'll crush your faith" suggest that the singer is imparting lessons learned from equally painful experiences. Just as the verses provide individual anecdotes, the chorus broadens the scope of the message, extending the idea to everyone who may have experienced the same pain, and offering a sense of justice through the repetition of "What goes around comes around."
