Hey guys! So here is "Swap our places" A vid about Sam & Dean Winchester, featured with the song: "Running up that hill" by Placebo.
First of all, This vid is a gift to Verucasalt123 (here's the link of her lj: verucasalt123.livejournal.com/ ) who requested a Sam/Dean vid with this particular song.
It was a little hard to make because "Running up that hill" is a song that got some deep and emotional meaning. And the highest angst we had on SPN been during Season five, my favorite but also the one I watch the less.
The first part of the vid is Dean's POV. "This is our one shot Sammy, we gotta take it no matter what"
We're watching Dean sacrificed everything to save the world when the only thing he want to do is give everything to save Sam. We're watching him suffered because of Sam's actions, but somehow matching them in his own way, because they are both humans and at that time, during season four, they were both getting darker.
Finally we realized that the only reason, Dean is sinking is the weight of Sam's sufferance. Making a deal with god, or a demon isn't going to help them run up the hill. But Dean would gladly swap their places.
The second part is Sam's POV. "You'll never punish me as much as I punishing myself." This quote is from 5x05. Strangely it's this sentence that caught my attention during the whole dialogue. And it's here to illustrate how (During Season three and four, since Dean's deal) Sam was willing, not only to sacrificed but to destroy every damn thing that stand between him and saving Dean, then getting revenge for his death.
We're watching him losing himself with Ruby, with the demon's blood, with his powers. We're watching him losing control, getting angry and fighting his brother.
But we're also watching him doing all the wrong things for one good reason, his brother. We're watching him loving Dean and suffering for him, for his time in hell.
Here lies the difference though: where Dean is drowning under all the harshness of their life, Sam is bursting into angry flames. But the feeling is here, Sam would also (when he's not high on demon's blood) swap their places.
The final quote is Bobby's from 5x21: "What exactly are you afraid of? Losing? Or losing your brother?" The fact that Bobby asked that to Dean is as much important as the quote itself. It's at this moment that we realized what he took from Dean to let Sam jump in the cage. It wouldn't feel deader if they had lost the war against the angels.
After making this vid, I think that for Sam the answer would be losing because it meant losing his brother anyway. After everything he went through, detox and all, Sam jumped in the cage for Dean, because saving the world equaled saving Dean. This is where they are so different and yet so alike. Sam didn't understand that saving the world by jumping in the pit would gladly kill his brother. And Dean never understood how Sam could think that without him, they were a world to live for.
Lyrics:
It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You, it's you and me
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with god,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building
If I only could.
You don't want to hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder
There is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, it's you and me
It's you and me won't be unhappy
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with god,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
Say, if I only could, oh...
You,
It's you and me,
It's you and me won't be unhappy
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with god,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
Say, if I only could, oh...
