Song 14 + 15/30

See the 30/30 Challenge here!

Song 14: A song nobody would expect me to like.

All of my friends know I don't like rap. However, most of them don't realise that there are 4 songs by Eminem I really like, my favourite of which is Without Me.

Song 15: A song that describes you.

Holy fuck. This is hard. Not because I can't think of any, but because the song that describes me has already been chosen (Song 10). So I'll have to think of a new one...

Only one thing comes to mind. When I was still with my ex, she got me to listen to this song and said it was about us. I wish I didn't believe her, because I expected her to keep me from falling apart. She took too much responsibility for my happiness, and I wish I didn't let her do that. No one can stop someone else falling apart, and it's too much to expect someone to try. She also mentioned the fact that I laugh and don't believe someone when they complement me. I don't see much inside of myself to like. There is a part of me that thinks that this song is still very much about us, because she was where I am, or was at the time, and really tried to help me. Some of it stuck, a lot didn't. The Fragile, by Nine Inch Nails, is about me, about who I was, and what I'm trying to get away from, in myself and her.
