You ever love somebody so much,
you can barely breathe when you’re with ‘em
You meet, and neither one of you, even know what hit ‘em
Got that warm fuzzy feelin’, yeah them chills used to get ‘em
Now you’re gettin’, fuckin’ sick of lookin’ at ‘em
You’d swore you’d never hit ‘em, never do nothing to hurt ‘em
Now you’re in each others’ face,
spewing venom in your words when you spit ‘em
You push pull each others’ hair, scratch claw bit ‘em
Throw ‘em down pin ‘em, so lost in them moments when you’re in ‘em
It’s the rage that took over, it controls ya both
So they say you’re best to go your separate ways…
For me, even today, this represents the spirit of Spn - the way I saw it at the very beginning, my very first impression, the one that never left me. Sam and Dean, caught in this tortured, pained, punch-you-in-the-guts and shove-a-knife-in-your-stomach and twist-your-lungs-with-my-bare-hands desperate relationship - and at the same time, the only thing that keeps them breathing, the only way they can be alive, the only thing that makes them fly high and touch Heaven.
The brilliant montage of the video, the lyrics - it still makes my stomach heavy because it’s just perfect. The visceral love, the burning hatred, the violence, the shoving each other away, sinking at the lowest, drowning in the deepest darkness, and at the same time the only moments of true happiness, the smiles that say we’re on top of the fucking world, the loyalty and the blood and the need and the despair and the sheer exhilaration and the love. Tangled, painful, crushing, suffocating, love. Bright, burning, blinding, supernova-scalding love. Liberating, light, breathing freely, wind and sunshine on top of the fucking mountain love.
Sam and Dean.
