    Lyrics:
    V1
    Lets get the story straight
    You were a poison
    You flooded through my veins
    You left me broken
    You tried to make me think
    That the blame was all on me
    With the pain you put me through
    And now I know that its not me its you
    Chorus
    Its not me its you
    Always has been you
    All the lies and stupid things you say and do
    Its you
    Its not me its you
    All the lies and pain you put me through
    I know that its not me its you
    You
    You
    Its not me its you, you
    V2
    So here we go again
    The same fight were always in
    I dont care so why pretend
    Wake me when your lecture ends
    You tried to make me small
    Make me fall and its all your fault
    With the pain you put me through
    And now I know that its not me its you
    Bridge
    Lets get the story straight
    You were a poison
    Flooding through my veins
    Driving me insane
    And now youre gone away
    Im no longer choking
    From the pain you put me through
    And now I know that its not me its you

    What I like about Skillet is that, their songs have both meanings.
    If you're not much of a Christian, you can look at the song as a bad relationship/anger song(all the lies and the stupid things you say and do)
    If you are a big Christian, you can look at the song as knowing that the topic is the Devil (Poison in my veins, flooding through my veins)
    It's a win/win situation!

    I know that skillet is a Christian band, but even if they are, you don't have to be Christian to listen to it, they make songs so you can interpret it the way you want to, I am not a Christian but interpret the lyrics in many different ways like abuse, relationships, and other things

    Skillet said that this song is not just about either a harmful evil influence to Christians or getting out of a bad relationship, it can also be about a boss you had that was awful, a parent, anyone basically. About you basically cutting some person out of your life that was causing you harm

She got into my head and made me believe that I couldn't do better than someone like her. I was in that cycle for several years. It took me, what felt like forever, to understand that it wasn't me, but her.

You are incredibly strong for keeping yourself together after all that. Never forget how special you are.. people will try to tear you down and make you feel like less than nothing but never listen to them. They could never be more wrong.. if anything, they’re the ones who amount to trash because they can treat other human beings in such a cruel way. It’s so inhumane.

      Many do that stuff to their mate, male & female alike both do it. BUT, next time anyone tries that stuff ask them WHY, if you are so bad do they stay with you so long? Or better still just leave them. Really it is something like a red flag for you~ the mouth speaks what is in the heart. That stuff came from her heart & her intention I'm sure was to make you feel about yourself as she feels about her self OR to make you think you MUST stay with HER because you can do not better. All people can con, & be cruel & mean spirited, but women seem to have sharpened their skills in this area to a razor edge & use it too cut the throats of men. Live & learned right? God bless you my friend with a woman that is worth of you. Your sound like a together guy that is better off for ending a relationship like that.

    Some people put this song as a break up song or otherwise stated meaning.
    Me? I see every bad event in my otherwise peaceful life.
    My cousin who is four years behind me, lets call them Kay, was a big toxic friend. They always wanted to do things their way where I was raised to meet half way and compromise. I did everything they wanted me to and whenever I asked for something I wanted to do, Kay would guilt me into doing their thing. It eventually got to a point where I was being the emotions of the relationship-yeah, its that bad-so I cut Kay out of my life via blocking them on Facebook and other medias. They still then tried to make me feel like dirt but haven't been able to since, thankfully.
    The next event is a short one, this next person, who we'll call Sage, backstabbed me to get my then best friend. Sage was added to my little friend clique, that only consisted of me and my best friend at the time, to see how it would go. She was a chatter box and I didn't mind that much but when she kept complaining that she couldn't draw, I was willing to teach her. My best friend even got in on this but Sage hardly paid any attention to what I was teaching and eventually just left me and my bestie to ourselves. Sage kept sneaking my bestie away from me and I was never included so one day I wanted to have my bestie come with me but Sage started dragging her off, so I pulled back until we just had a tug-o-war with my besties arms. Sage won after my bestie informed me that she wanted to be with her more so I just let her go. It got to a point where Sage started spreading false rumors about me-this was in 7th/8th grade, so I didn't have it all together then. She would say I'm demanding or controlling to my bestie, which I wasn't, and that I beat up one of my few other friends. That was the boiling point for me and I cut her outta my life in 9th grade.
    This last one is my first and worst relationship. Lets call him Richard. So I had a crush on Richard since junior high as he moved to my little village in 6th grade. At first, he found me odd since I follow my friends everywhere but we eventually became best friends. One day I confessed my love for him and he accepted my confession. What followed was a good 6 months of love and happiness until the fourth of July, where Richard broke up with me over text...It was crushing to me since I've never had a real relationship until then. Then, a few months later, he wanted me to take him back. I was dumb enough to give him another chance and it would cycle back to this way in 5-3 months. I gave Richard over 6 chances until I finally denied him. He never asked again after that.

    HA! To my father, a big 'screw you'! He needs to accept the consequences and realise how he has completely and utterly destroyed my life. It's his fault, not mine, and I know that now.
    Thank you, Skillet.

      Me too, i sabotaged myself with a lot of beautiful girls when i was 12... a couple of them were incredible beautiful, caring, smart and all, didnt think i was good enough for them or anyone, aww man, i really regret it every day, it sounds weird, but nothing really made me feel as bad as that, i didnt feel anybody loved me back then (thanks to my psyco mother who never really cared that much about me, abandoned me and did a lot of crap to me and my dad) i have to live my life today(15), and its way more harder than it should be thanks to the position my mother put me in... but man.. if i could only return back in time... I really regret back then not getting out of my self-hurt, self-hate shield and... love. its incredible how healty and happy is the life of some 12 y/o,s always thatsomething like that comes in my mind... i cant help but feel like crying....my dad was severely sick, still working and could die any day, my mother became a D type person some years ago, didnt care if i was a winner or not, and my a type dad, always treated me like an adult, my mother was conditioning me to hate him and believe all the bs she said about him... and one day, it hit me hard, right where it hurt and, well, my dad didnt think it affected me that much, my mother careless, i used to cry every day, frustration, regret, confusion, uncertainity, clueless, man, i cant believe i was 12 years old and feeling all that, so many bad emotions..... i wasnt over it at all when my mother then abandoned me, It took me so many effort and time to get over it, tbh my father wasnt that helpful with me until some months ago, but thanks to God, here I am, close to being complete again.

    I was once the "bad guy" in this song. It took someone saying that it isn't others that lie to blame it is myself. Though my case isn't the rule I still understand that sometimes these things need to be said and I thank my Friend that called me on it. I encourage everyone to take a stand for themselves and others.

  • @arieldayan3103
    @arieldayan3103 7 років тому +27

    everyone says that his song is about a break up, but I see it otherwise, i see it as a song about betrayal, in my example a person who claims to be a friend and does anything at any opportunity to hurt you and turn all of your friends against you. That friend makes you feel like it is your fault, but it's not true, they did this to you, they hurt you and they poison your life. guys, I'm 15 years old and this happened to me twice and I won't let it happen again, and guys watch your back and if this this happens to you fight back!
