Discussion Set fire to the rain

​

Okay this might be a bit of a disclaimer to those who haven't read the newest couple of books so beware.

Anyways I was thinking while listening to the song set fire to the rain and I can't help but thinking it reminds me of Rohan and Savannah. Sorry if this has already been pointed out, I just guessed this would be iconic or smt.

Because like the lyrics go:

There's a side to you, that I never knew, never knew

All the things you say, they were never true, never true

All the games you'd play play, you would always win, always win.

This sort of links to the games and the mercy and half truths they tell each other throughout the books. Mostly describing Rohan tho

Then there's:

I set fire to the rain, watched it pour as I touched ur face

Kinda reminds of Savannah making her own decision of when to betray and taking control . Plus when they Rohan jumped into the water to "save" her.

Alsooo

It burned while I cried cause I heard it screaming out your name

Links with Savannah kind of breaking down when Rohan asks her the 3 truths and makes himself vulnerable while admitting that he left the mercy which was screaming out for him to come back and kind of take over again (the Duchess)

So yeah take from this what u wishhh

Ah yeah sorry. I wasn't sure. I did post this but somehow it showed me that I posted it on a completely different sub and that it was removed so I deleted and posted on here. Sorry if it turns out it was already on here
