I came across this video today. And within an instant, I fell in love.
Just as I do with every other song I come in contact with, I found some kind of relation to the lyrics. This time in more way than one.
First thing that popped into my head when the song rang through my ears was what the obvious message of the song was. Obviously any girl who listens to this song is going to relate this to some guy she likes, loves, or maybe even now hates. And yes of course that was my first reaction as well. Right now confusion doesn't even begin to describe what I'm feeling at that subject for the moment. It's not only that, but everything in my life altogether. Everything happens so fast, life is short, and you never know what's going to come next..
That brings me to what I then related this ever so special song to.
A few weeks ago, my closest cousin, Victoria Wells, was killed in a car accident. I haven't really been able to talk about it, until now. She was with a friend of hers, neither of them were wearing seat belts, the car was said to be speeding, and had crashed off the road into a guardrail and ditch. The driver had survived but was severely injured; Torrie, died that night at the scene. Every day I go by thinking about how much I would love to just see her one last time, or hear her voice, or even simply say goodbye. But I know that that obviously cannot happen. Hearing this song made me really think about everything Torrie and I had been through over the past eighteen years. She was only a few months older than me, we spent our entire lives together. We grew up with each other, we were practically sisters--always fighting, arguing, laughing, playing, talking, crying, venting, and just being with one another. This song right here explains my exact thoughts about knowing that she's not here. Torrie loved music, as do I. We would always go to each others houses trading songs and artists for each others iPods. I feel as though this song would be at the top of her playlist right about now as it is mine. ♥
