“Don't grow up too fast And don't embrace the past. This life's too good to last, And I'm too young to care.”
Blackout written and sang by Muse
This song - I’m going to be very frank - reminds me of a time when I truthfully didn’t need to worry about a thing. It was the first song that I listen to symphonic rock and I began it to send it to my friend. More importantly, it was this friend who became so close to me within a matter of months. Secrets were shared, life’s stores became a daily routine, and were told on the floor. Walks outside at night, in a starlit neighbourhood, discussions about simple life’s interests such as music, or girls... so many memories. To be honest, this person knows more about me than everyone else I know. This person was/still is the person I trust the most outside of my family. Communication is sparse, hanging out is impossible, and even a simply text is to our disadvantage. None of that matters, though, because I know the secrets she knows about me will always stay hidden between us. There’s so much of me that no one else could even dream about knowing, whereas she has the simple ability to be able to tell any soul she wanted. Even when this person was/gets pissed off at me, angry, upset, anything at all, I trust her enough that my secrets are safe with her.
I couldn’t ask anything more from a friend, to be honest. Except for this person, she’s not just a friend. She’s pretty much as best of a friend I could ever have. We can’t talk, we can’t see each other, we can’t communicate, but the level of trust isn’t gone. I don’t have the kind of relationship I do with her with anyone else in my life. The memories of her will never fade, and I have this song to remind of me of all of those times we shared. ;)
