Blame
Cosmic Gate Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Always says "You′re doin' fine"
But it′s never what it seems
Don't blame it on me
Reckless runnin' thoughts
Always show you what you′d want
But it′s never what you need
Don′t blame it on me, on me
Don't blame it on me, on me
We crave the light
Escape the darkness
But twilights grip you in its hold
I saw the truth was dancing blindfold
Tiptoeing on a tight rope
Don′t blame it on me, on me
Don't blame it on me, on me
Don′t blame it on me, on me
Don't blame it on me, on me
Don't blame it on me, on me
Don′t blame it on me, on me
Don′t blame it on me, on me
Don't blame it on me, on me
In Cosmic Gate's song "Blame," the lyrics convey the struggle of finding inner peace amidst the chaos of life. The opening line, "That fragile peace of mind, always says 'You're doin' fine,' but it's never what it seems", suggests that despite the reassurance of one's own mind, there is a deeper feeling of uncertainty and turmoil that remains unaddressed. The phrase "Don't blame it on me" is repeated throughout the song, as a reminder to avoid placing blame on oneself for the challenges that are faced.
The next set of lyrics, "Reckless runnin' thoughts, always show you what you'd want, but it's never what you need," speaks to the constant inner dialogue we have with ourselves, where our thoughts and desires are not always aligned with our needs. This struggle is further emphasized in the line, "We crave the light, escape the darkness, but twilight's grip you in its hold," which may imply that despite our attempts to control our thoughts and emotions, we can get caught in a cycle that is hard to break free from.
The final lines of the song, "I saw the truth was dancing blindfold, tiptoeing on a tight rope," suggest that despite the difficulties faced in finding inner peace, there is still hope for clarity and balance. Overall, the song encourages listeners to persevere through life's struggles without placing blame on themselves for things that are beyond their control.
