landslide

Just watched the newest episode of South Park, which gaVe me a good laugh and a hell of a cry. It basically satired the modern society and citizens' mentality. When you reach a certain phase of your lfe, you begin to see everything and everyone around as shitty and crappy. And they even gave it an official term, it’s called cynical asshole syndrome, lol. Especially when people grow old and bitter and alone, but it’s not exclusively linked to aging. It is rather a matter of mental and spiritual thing, a state of mind, not phisycal or functional .
People come and go and grow old. Each and every one of us drift further and further apart.
Just like a landslide, an avalanche. Everything is helplessly and holelessly falling down and falling apart and fading away. The song landslide says it the best and totally got me all teared up.
I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well, the landslide brought me down
Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life
Uh uh... uh uh, uh uh
Well, I've been afraid of changin
Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
And I'm getting older too
Well
(Instrumental)
Well, I've been afraid of changin
Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
And I'm getting older too
Well, I'm getting older too
So take this love and take it down
Yeah, and if you climb a mountain and you turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well, the landslide brought it down
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well maybe...
Well maybe...
Well maybe...
The landslide'll bring you down

- samscri: South Park?...Thought I've watched several episodes before...really funny cartoon...Some of do have educational meaning, but I'm not sure the words thyeah, it's very penetrating and sarcastic actually, making fun of everything. haha. of course it's not rated pg-13, it's an adult cartoon actually, so I guess it's for cable Tv and people above 18 only.
