Not The Reason

in lyrics •  7 years ago 

0BDB389E-1A9F-4E07-BAA8-C13D6B533EE3.pngYou are not the reason for my struggles
You are not the shadows on the wall
you are not the cause for all the breaking
You are not the winter after fall

You are not to blame
For anyone else’s shame
Don’t let any other angry face shake you

Don’t allow them any room when they try to break you

You are more than
Just a habit
You don’t have to
Follow the white rabbit

You are not me
I am not you
It’s so twisted
And we argue

Until we can’t breathe
So we can believe
The love is drowned out
By loveless self doubt.

She can cry.
He can swear.
She can burst into the air

He can catch her if she is falling
Who is that calling
It starts again

Poetic Lori. Do you think it is only shes that cry? He does cry too like I did yesterday. The death of my lovely in-law crushed by a truck. Mcheeew!
Pains, tears, sorrow. God is loving and above all

Poor thing, are you saying you just lost a family member? I am so sorry for your loss, honey. Oh my gosh. 😥😥

Thank you. Appreciate your sympaty. Bro Sony has gone to be with the Lord. Did about 80 miles to go console my sister.

Here's Morning in my country and you made my day by posting this best tale with superb lyrics. It's quite romantic as well. ;)

oh wow that's awesome lyrics u just write amazing thank u for sharing this stuff

Awesome lyrics keep it up I am following you

I must say this is really really quite impressive lyrics you made in this post. This is so deep. I'm loving to read it again and again ❤️

He can catch her if she is falling
Who is that calling
It starts again

Those three lines really resonated with me. Made me think back to a couple of friends I had who had mental challenges which turned their life into roller coasters of emotions. I'd try and help them, only to find ourselves right back where we started a few months later in an endless cycle.

All familiar. True.

Makes me think. I'm not sure what this is about, but to me it speaks of personal responsibility. And also resilience.

You are not the shadows on the wall
you are not the cause for all the breaking

Whatever happened, the person is going to move on. They're not going to get stuck there. Their actions in the fall aren't going to continue into the winter. That's a new season.

Makes me think about moving on to new and better things! :)
That makes me smile.

@themanwithnoname Which person is moving on? The one speaking or the one who is “not the shadows on the wall”?

I took it as the speaker moving on. If it was a bad situation, they're (hopefully) physically no longer in it, but they've stopped letting what was done to them affect them. The person they're talking about no longer "lives rent-free in [the speaker's] head" as they say.

I don't know though. The latter part of the poem makes me think that the person (I would say the "she" in the poem) is in a bad situation and can't get out.

Maybe she's becoming the shadow on that person's wall after what they did.

Now I'm confused again. At least it makes me think. Apparently not clearly though. Ha ha ha

Thanks for indulging me, it’s cool to see someone trying to decode my crazy words. Is it mean if I never reveal the meaning? I always thought bands who withheld facts about lyrics like that were cruel in a way, but oh so cool. ❤️

Ha ha, I love it! I'm like a little hamster on my wheel. If you're entertained by my confusion, I'm good with that. I understand not revealing the meaning. Sometimes it can be very personal, so no worries.

i like the post nice one. Thank you for sharing ♥

this is sOooOo rOmantiC Lyrics, I reading this beautiful cOntent. Make me feel sOoOo gOod and relax !!!
Loved it !

Once again nice poem, Once again amazing lines @lorilikes.
Lines from one of my poem -

As human minds grasp
With the reason for their reality
As in their obliviousness
They comprehend their value as human bombs
With a belief the heavens will open the gates
With a display and a guaranteed favoring
For their celestial demonstration of unchallenged conviction

And how does this end? It sounds like a scary situation.

Nobody
Nothing in the universe
Proposes
Uncovered
Indeed, even an insight
Indeed, even an impression
Not a piece of information

That would lead
Reveal
An answer.

Life in its logical inconsistency
Like the notorious apple
Offers both
The supernatural occurrence
The curse.
