It is what it is
Okay so
I wanted to wait till after Valentine’s Day to write, that and I really had 3
songs in mind. Well this little gem of a song “It is what it is” is from
Lifehouse and on the album Smoke & Mirrors. I heard this on Pandora cause I
enjoy my mash-up stations and I screenshot the song so I could download it
later and, I clearly hit repeat and downloaded the lyrics so here we are.
The song
for me is GREAT and not in a wow sad way but in a “Hey listen we tried let’s
call it what it is” very grown and mature realization that “this isn’t going to
work out so let’s stop while we still like each other”. I will put some of the
lyrics down and go from there.
*“Somewhere
in this city is a road I know where we could make it, but maybe there’s no
Making it Now. *Chorus- Too we’ve been Denying now we’re both tired of Trying.
We hit a wall and we can’t get over it. Nothing to relive its water under a
bridge, You said it I get it I guess IT IS WHAT IT IS...”*
That’s dedication I
listened to this song and reread the lyrics and I commend who ever the song is
about. Because in my head I see 2 people who tried and when it got bad it was
what it was and they could get pass that I respect that. Its like in so many
relationships you both make escuses or reasons why you still together “we been
together too long to just leave, or he will love me one day, or she isn’t that
crazy” LOL. But in all that I think for me its hard to say damn we done it is
what it is because I wanna know I did all I could to make it work and the road
I saw us going down together is no longer there and accept that and move
forward. The problem in that is every time your heart is broken it cant be
healed that person takes that piece of you forever there is no “I just wanna be
who I was before” you can’t that person is history you can only improve on
what’s left and hope for the best.
I love that he says
nothing to relive its water under a bridge, because so many times I find myself
going damn I wish I could go back and redo that argument or that relationship
choice or that time when… it’s hard to live in the present without looking in
the past for validation or in the future for clarity. Like a great woman I love
told me “I need someone who thinks like me and not afraid of getting hurt,
someone at least willing to take a chance, someone to hold my hand in the scary
parts of the movie/life.” I love that and I in the end it is not just you in
the situation but only you can control what you say and how you act and no one
can read minds so you have to communicate. I know now that sometimes we fight
for thing that even the Powers that be try to keep apart we must learn when to
let go and move on and move forward. I will give you the lt set of lyrics then
it is what it is LOL.
*Here
it comes ready or not we both found out its not how we thought that it would
be. If the time could turn us around, what once was lost may be found for you
and me.*
I get it I See it and it
moves me, and I see that a lot in my life and in my friends and I love cause
its so true we do that a lot “lets start over and get back to how were”. And
that’s deadly cause you aren’t those people anymore and to try to go back is
not healthy and too much WORK. But I will sum it up and finish it off with this
I watched –The Perks of Being a Wallflower- and the movie seriously changed my
life, I see so much in different eyes then I thought I wouldn’t have. So many
parts were Epic but I will say on my right Rib coming this spring *We Accept
the Love we think we Deserve* that movie moved me and I know who I am so much
more going into 2013 and I control that spirit and this body I am Perfectly
Flawed and Perfectly Beautiful. And when you start to realize that about
yourselves you humans will finally begin to evolve… I know I have and the light
feels good on my skin!!!!
-I See You…-
*Life is the Sum of
Choices you Make*
+Infinite Love
Starts in the Heart+
^We Accept the Love
we Think we Deserve^
<3 Ty 2013
