Lyrics are by Sugarland...This is Disney's and Lucasfilm's sandbox, I'm just playing in the
sand...
Ain't no rhyme or reason.
Kylo Ren was on the Finalizer and was having a bad day.
No complicated meaning
A song was running through his head and he couldn't place the song or the artist. He had
never heard the song before..it was a genre of music that his parents sometimes listened
to but he never did, and when they did and he would be there he would inwardly wince when
he listened to it.
Ain't no need to overthink it,
Every time the shit seemed to hit the fan, the chorus of the song would spring into his
mind and it would actually kill the urge to lay waste to whatever was irking him at the
moment.
Let go laughing.
He felt lighter when he just let go of it. He actually felt physically tired if he
happened to think of who or what was driving him temporarily insane.
Life don't go quite like you planned it
He thought of the scavenger. How his bond with her changed him
We try so hard to understand it
He doesn't understand how this nobody from a backwater planet happened to kick his ass
twice in one day and take his heart and be about 75 percent of his impulse control
The irrefutable, indisputable fact is
All he knew was at the end of this day, despite it being one of the worst since Starkiller
base, even with Hux being an ass as usual, Phasma getting under his skin and lots of
mechanical failures and running out of muffins in the mess hall, today wasn't quite as
bad.
It happens.
Damn. He thought. What was the name of this song?
On a resistance base, Rey was doing her chores for the day.
Ain't no rhyme or reason,
sometimes things go wrong...she thinks as she drops a dish and breaks it...
No complicated meaning
Wonders what Master Luke would think about the song repeating in her head like this
No need to overthink it
As she's cleaning up the broken dish she just says Nah and throws the pieces away
Let go laughing...she stopped doing the dishes that she was doing in her kitchen when she
sees a little bubble floating up from the soapy dishwater
Life don't go quite like you planned it
She thought of Ren, How she bond with him changed her
We try so hard to understand to understand it
She doesn't get how Ren had the chance to kill her and didn't
The irrefutable, indisputable fact is
All she knew at the end of the day, she felt tugs on the bond that Ren and Rey share.
Sometimes they were stronger than others and for some strange reason she wants muffins at
eleven o'clock in the morning
It happens.
And she hums the song over again. and she sings the chorus
And Kylo Ren hears it.
