Underneath the Sycamore

"We are the same, we are both safe underneath the sycamore. We were both broken in our own ways. Shifting through the rubble for the wrong things." -Death Cab for Cutie

OMIGOSH!! This has become my new fave Death Cab song!!! Everytime it comes through my headphones I get so excited because I love it! I think Ben Gibbard wrote this one for Zooey. But then again, aren't they all for Zooey?? (LOL)
This part of the song reminds me of trying to find true love. We all THINK we know what we want in our soulmate but we don't until we meet them. Then we realize that they are what we need in our lives. That's when you know you're the same and you'll be safe with them, forever, underneath the sycamore.

Set Fire to the Rain

"I let it fall, my heart, and as it fell, you rose to claim it. It was dark and I was over, until you kissed my lips and you saved me.[...]But I set fire to the rain, watched it pour as I touched your face, well, it burned while I cried 'cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name." -Adele

This song is truly amazing. My mom keeps on asking me how it's possible to set fire to rain. I must ask Adele this when I finally meet her.
Anyway, the song is brilliant. She has a knack for making me feel horrible for messing with her feelings. It's really something to be in a relationship with a guy you thought would save you from your miserable state of loneliness, and then suddenly he becomes this absolute monster that you never want to see again. You tell yourself that you're done with him but you keep on letting him back into your life. But one day you put your foot down and set fire to the rain, watching it burn him as you cry because you know it wasn't meant to be. Not with him, at least. I really love this song so I made a video of me singing it. Enjoy!
