She Said
Sundara Karma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I kinda wanna go out dancing
Forget about the guys
'Cause it doesn't feel right so he left
Drinking with the boys in convoy
Flirting with the girls who play it coy
Doubt he even knows that it doesn't feel right
'Cause every night has gotta start somewhere
Another badly combed frown
'Cause mirrors always seem to bring her down
Going through the motions of
Strange ways here we come and teenage love
Can see there's something inside
Her voice is telling her to stay behind
So as friends approached her
She looked over her shoulder and
She said I don't wanna go out chasing
I kinda wanna go out dancing
Forget about the guys
'Cause it doesn't feel right so he left
Drinking with the boys in convoy
Flirting with the girls who play it coy
Doubt he even knows that it doesn't feel right
Acting like he doesn't care
But he's really the most self-aware
He taught his heart how to be cool
Be'Cause everyone loves a criminal
Nothing like a drink or two
She's on his mind at least he thinks its true
But ain't it funny how we're never certain 'bout the way we are
Another youth is wasted and eternity tainted
She said I don't wanna go out chasing
I kinda wanna go out dancing
Forget about the guys
'Cause it doesn't feel right so he left
Drinking with the boys in convoy
Flirting with the girls who play it coy
Doubt he even knows that it doesn't feel right
She said I don't wanna go out chasing
I kinda wanna go out dancing
Forget about the guys
'Cause it doesn't feel right do he left
Drinking with the boys in convoy
Flirting with the girls who play it coy
Doubt he even knows that it doesn't feel right
She said I don't wanna go out chasing
I kinda wanna go out dancing
Forget about the guys
'Cause it doesn't feel right so he left
Drinking with the boys in convoy
Flirting with the girls who play it coy
Doubt he even knows that it doesn't feel right
The lyrics of Sundara Karma's song She Said highlight the confusion and uncertainty felt by the main character. The beginning of the song sets the scene of a group of boys and girls going out together. However, the main character does not want to "go out chasing" as it does not feel right. Instead, she wants to forget about guys and just dance. Her sense of doubt and unease is reiterated in the line "Her voice is telling her to stay behind" as she struggles with the idea of going out.
As the song progresses, it becomes clear that the main character is not the only one struggling with their emotions. The male protagonist is described as acting like he doesn't care when really, he's self-aware and is aware of what he wants. Subsequently, the song becomes an exploration of teenage love and how it is often confused and contradictory. The line "Another youth is wasted and eternity tainted" shows how the stakes are high in the world of teenage love.
Overall, She Said is a relatable song that captures the emotions and experiences of many young people.
