Qui n'date pas d'hier, j'essaye de lire entre tes lignes
J'interprète tes soupirs, tes sourires me font peur
C'est pas ta faute si c'est la tempête, la marée haute dans ta tête
Ça tangue et tu t'en veux, amarrée comme tu peux
Côte à côte à contre-courant, j'ai envie d'aller vers
L'air de rien tu m'éclaires alors je rame pour te plaire
C'est pas ta faute si c'est la tempête, la marée haute dans ta tête
Ça tangue et tu t'en veux, amarrée comme tu peux
Ça monte, ça monte en toi, ça monte, ça monte en toi
Ça monte, ça monte en toi, ça monte, ça monte en toi
Ça monte, ça monte en toi, ça monte, ça monte en toi
C'est pas ta faute si c'est la tempête, la marée haute dans ta tête
Ça tangue et tu t'en veux, amarrée comme tu peux
C'est pas ta faute si c'est la tempête, la marée haute dans ta tête
Ça tangue et tu t'en veux, amarrée comme tu peux.
In "C'est pas ta faute," M sings of trying to read between the lines of someone's troubled thoughts and moods, comparing it to a poison in the water and a message in a bottle that has been floating for some time. The singer is trying to understand and interpret the person's sighs and smiles, but it's all uncertain and fearful. The chorus asserts that the person is not to blame for the internal storm and high tide in their mind, and that they are doing their best to hold on amidst the waves. The singer expresses a desire to be close to the other person, even as they feel overwhelmed by their unique light and energy, and goes so far as to say they are rowing to please them. The song ends with repeated verses emphasizing that it's not the person's fault for struggling with the storm and currents within.
On one level, "C'est pas ta faute" can be seen as a message of empathy and support to someone who is going through a difficult time, with the singer acknowledging that the other person's struggles are not their fault and trying to be there for them. At the same time, the song also touches on the challenges of trying to parse someone else's moods and thoughts, and the fear and uncertainty that can come with trying to connect with someone who seems to be going through something difficult.
One interesting aspect of the song is the use of water imagery throughout, with references to the ocean, the tide, and a message in a bottle. This reinforces the sense of being adrift and overwhelmed by the forces within. Another notable choice is the repetition of the chorus, with the phrase "C'est pas ta faute" serving as a reassuring refrain throughout the song.
Overall, "C'est pas ta faute" is a moving and compassionate song about trying to connect with someone who is struggling, and recognizing that their difficulties are not their fault.
