21. A favorite song with a person's name in the title
Within Temptation - Sinéad
(lyrics)
It's a surprisingly cheerful song about letting go and "taking the leap" of living one's best life. The singer has found that after a life of "drowning in sorrow" there's freedom on the other side of the chasm and wants Sinéad to join her there. There's a lot of talk about breaking away and setting things free. It's obviously (probably) about some sort of leap beyond society's norms; my personal interpretation is that it's about coming out/rejecting the shackles of compulsory heterosexuality and going to the queer side. Do not care for the thoughts of others, be yourself.
