Someday
Münechild Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I told you I could walk on water
To be honest it was only a dream
Shifted street beside the martyr
Lemon skies are turning pink
I'll catch you on the other side
Baby it's a pretty long strip
Purchased shades I won't go blind
Snatch the tag on happiness, where we live

Do I have to move to LA, someday?
To find just what we're looking for, there's no wait

I see you found the CD
The stereo has company
If I can't find the hotel
I'll take it as a good thing
Neon cutting into the night
There's pressure now on what I should buy
Every time I turn my head
The sun and moon are handing me light





Do I have to move to LA, someday?
To find just what we're looking for, there's no wait.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Münechild's "Someday" describe a journey towards a destination that may hold the key to happiness and fulfillment, but the means of getting there are uncertain. The first verse begins with a declaration of faith, "I told you I could walk on water," but quickly reveals this to be just a dream. The singer is in a city, situated near a martyr, and watching the sky fade from lemon to pink. He promises to meet his beloved on the other side of a long road, and has come prepared with sunglasses to protect his eyes from the bright future ahead. The idea of finding happiness is symbolized by a tag, which he will snatch from wherever he finds it.


In the chorus, the singer wonders if he must relocate to Los Angeles in order to find what they are both seeking. He does not want to wait any longer, but also acknowledges that the journey itself is part of the search. The second verse mentions music, indicating that the journey has a soundtrack, and a CD has been found. The singer is optimistic about becoming lost and taking it as a good omen. The neon lights of the city add to the pressure to succeed, but also offer guidance. Every turn of the head reveals new sources of inspiration, and the sun and moon seem to be directing his path towards enlightenment.


Overall, "Someday" can be seen as a meditation on the nature of journeys and destinations. While there may be an ultimate goal in mind, the path there is often indirect and unpredictable. The singer shows a willingness to improvise, finding comfort in small signs that point in the right direction. The idea of relocating is also significant, as physical movement can represent a change in perspective and a reminder that the journey towards self-discovery does not have to occur in one place.
