Nothing Else Matters.

My interpretation of the only song that I can't live without,
:-)
"Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica.

"So close no matter how far, couldn't be much more from the heart"
Two people loving each other, no matter the distance apart. And speaking with that person in which you love, always comes from your heart. Speaking without thought of what your saying comes from the heart.
"Forever trusting who we are, and nothing else matters."
Forever relying on our hearts, where the most powerful feelings come from. And how the world, when viewed from this place, could crumble, and would not make one difference.
"Never opened myself this way"
This person is the first one to make him feel like opening up, the first one to show him enough understanding and concern to make him feel inclined to show her so much of himself.
"Life is ours we live it our way"
You go by what you trust and when you trust who each are, you don't follow anyone, you live your lives your way.
"All these words I don't just say"
The man who's writing is a rather silent one. For some silent ones, the only way to express what they don't find words for is to take a pen… and a guitar if they can. He doesn't "just say" them, because at the time of use, this could not escape his lips.
"And nothing else matters"
Despite the things that aren't said, he is talking to someone who understands him like never anyone before, the things he does, the way he acts and lives is life is enough to show what he means, the way he feels. Then, the words don't really matter anymore.
"Trust I seek and I find in you"
He's been searching for trust in himself and this leads him to search for what he can trust in the outside world too. Well, he found trust in himself as well as in someone else.
"Every day for us something new"
Every day is Christmas.Life is that way when you live it your own way: each day bringing you new challenges, new gifts, surprises… It doesn't keep you from disappointment unless you welcome each event as a present, whatever it might be, however tough or sweet it may feel.
"Open mind for a different view and nothing else matters"
What doesn't look like a present from a certain point of view, may look like one from another. What you may need sometimes is not to change things but to change the way you see them: to keep your mind opened.
"Never cared for what they do, never cared for what they know, but I know"
...&....
"Never cared for what they say, never cared for games they play"
The independent mind, the one who trusts his heart, who doesn't "give a shit"… about pieces of advice given by people who don't really know him, about criticism coming from people who don't really care for him, about teachings from people who haven't been where he's been. He doesn't listen to them but he knows: he's not learning from others, he's learning from his heart, from what he can trust,… what he found of him in her. And there even seems to be much more in this.
"Ya knooooooooooooowoooooooo"
it sounds as a gaze given at a painful past and then turned towards the days to come, a future expected with trust in oneself, trust in one's ability to face it all again if it should come back.
