| Mumford & Sons – Little Lion Man Lyrics | 8 years ago |
|
This song has actually inspire me to make a screenplay because of how close I feel it is to me and how much I feel it relates to me. The "Little Lion Man" is the singer (whether that be Marcus Mumford or you/me). A man might think he is as brave as a lion and think he's all big and tough, but when the situation comes, he is only a little man. That situation being talking to the woman he loves and braving the fact that he might fail to impress her enough for her to love him. Anyway, let's get into it: Weep for yourself, my man, You'll never be what is in your heart Weep little lion man, You're not as brave as you were at the start (Self-explanatory, but like I said, the man is not as brave as once thought he was. He is just a puny, cowardly man, which is the exact opposite of a lion.) Rate yourself and rake yourself, Take all the courage you have left Wasted on fixing all the problems that you made in your own head (Beat yourself up. Tell yourself after every chance you get how you blew it. How you might have blown it for both of your future. You know you can provide a better future but you are hurting both of your future's. Waste that courage that have you left on imagining what you can do next time without following through. You can't follow through because of the unfound and unbased paranoia you have created). But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really fucked it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my dear? (It wasn't your fault I didn't talk to you, remember? I made up those problems in my head and used that as excuses to not talk to you. It was your heart and your future on the line and I blew it. We could have a future, but not if I don't gather up courage to ignore those around me, their opinions and judgement, just so I can talk to you.) Tremble for yourself, my man, You know that you have seen this all before (Be afraid, you know you had these exact types of chances to talk to her and convince her to love you before.) Tremble little lion man, You'll never settle any of your scores (Alas, of course you won't do it) Your grace is wasted in your face, (you look better than you can perform) Your boldness stands alone among the wreck Now learn from your mother or else spend your days biting your own neck (the type of boldness you have is unheard of. Everyone else can do the things you can't do. Learn from your mother, ask her for advice, or kill yourself and your future.) The more I wrote, the more I realized I am probably write, but the best thing about music is that even though your interpretation could be on the dot, another could be the dot. So I will still count it as an interpretation. |

| Sorry for this long essay, i have to let my emotions out to where people can read, see, and reply to them. For me, this song sings PEEEERRRRFFFFEEECCCCCTTTLLLYYY this past year of my life. I fell in love with the most amazing girl imaginable three years ago. Last year I learned that my childhood best friend was going out with her when he knew I had liked her for a while ("that's not the way that friends behave") (yes I know 3 years isn't too long but it feels like a lifetime). I learned that I was just a third wheel that foolishly thought events that me and the girl shared with (my friend in the background) were actually events my BESTfriend and the girl shared (with ME in the background) ("two falling sparks one willing fool"). I always try to convince myself that I still have a chance, but deep down I know that they appear to be a perfect couple ("I always knew that I would love you from afar"). I've become closer to the girl over the years so I can be prepared if they ever do split up. I'm a Christian, so regardless if YOU are or not, prayer for me would be AMAZING! As a Christian I can't pray that they would split up, I can only trust God's best plan for me and ask for prayer. Please pray for me. (make fun of me if u want, this whole situation is sort of comical) | |
