When You Find yourself...

I know some might say that animated movies are for kids ! but hey I dont care . I love all types of movies. Infact ... animated movies have a different flair all together. I mean the whole concept of putting life into something non-living and how !! ,,, its just fascinates me. ..this whole animation thing! ...And disney's Pixar Animation Studios absolutely rock in this effort. Saw two animated movie recently. CARS and WALL-E. Both were amazing, the latter being the slightly better one of the two, in terms of story perhaps. But when it came to animation , both rocked.

There was a song composed for this movie, sung by Brad Paisley. When you find yourself. The lyrics depicting the journey of this race car who finds himself stuck in the most unlikey town at the unlikely time. The song is a melodius number but what was more attractive were the lyrics....which I feel many of us "living" beings can easily relate to. You can find the vdo/movie anywhere on the net. Below are the lyrics.

---------------------

When you find yourself in some far off place
and it causes you to rethink some things
You start to sense that slowly you're becoming someone else
And then you find yourself...

When you make new friends in a brand new town
and you start to think about settling down
The things that would have been lost on you
are now clear as a bell
And you find yourself,
yeah that's when you find yourself



Well you go through life
so sure of where you're heading
And you wind up lost
and its the best thing that could have happened
Cause sometimes when you lose your way, its really just as well
because you find yourself,
yeah that's when you find yourself.

When you meet the one, that you've been waiting for
and she's everything, that you want and more
You look at her and you finally start to live for someone else
And then you find yourself,
yeah that's when you find yourself

Cause sometimes when you lose your way, its really just as well
Because you find yourself,
Yeah thats when you find yourself.

....Nothing makes sense....

He looks at her picture one last time,
As if having loved her was such a crime.
She is smiling, while he cries in pain.
This cant happen, this is insane.

He tears it apart, then joins the pieces.
Burns them up and then eats the ashes.
His strengths all gone yet again, oh no.
His bags are packed, he's ready to go.

To travel far and to travel wide
To some far off place where one does not reside
To make way for all the memories to clear
the ones that were ugly and the ones that were dear.

But he does not succeed in his mission
The past haunts him and puts him in submission.
The harder he tries, for her thoughts to erase
The stronger they come back, he's stuck in a maze.

He sees her everywhere, with every other blink.
In the air he breathes, in the wine he drinks.
He longs for someone to help him now
Someone to end his life, or to show him how.



But alas for him, there is no one around
A pin drop silence, not a word nor a sound.
For the better or worse, he is all by himself
But he has to do, do what he intends for self

He shatters the glass hard on the ground.
Picks up a piece, the first one he found.
He takes a deep breath and then thinks no more
He cuts his wrist, the hand goes sore.

He closes his eyes, and sees a vision
He relives his life, till this decision.
The tears dont stop rolling, the world seems dull
The time has gone silent, the moment seems lull

Mixed emotions are running through his veins
Life seems to fizzle out, nothing makes sense
Life seems to fizzle out, nothing makes sense
Life seems to fizzle out, nothing .........
