Disarray – An Illustrated Song for the Winchesters
Well, for Sam this time. It’s no secret: I miss my Sammy, I want to exclaim, and I have done so in my head countless times. Though I can understand how much Jared Padalecki must enjoy performing this development of Sam’s nature – and I am so proud of him watching him grow even more as an actor – I miss the loveable, sweet, compassionate younger Winchester.
But we won’t allow the pain of missing a beloved character overcome us, right? It’s a new twist to our beloved show and despite my difficulties of loving these new turns, I can’t leave it be. It’s a part of my life now, this site is a part of my life now and the sweet, lovely, funny people that come here to comment, sigh or support aloud are a part of it, too, as kitschy as it may sound. I like kitschy, by the way. In particular at this time of year.
So, this illustrated song reminded me of the lost Sam, the man without a soul …

Disarray
By Lifehouse
I faced my demons wrestling these angels to the ground
And all that I could find was a thin line between
All the saints and villains
it was crossed in my own mind
Someday I’m gonna find it
Wish I knew what I was looking for
Inside the disarray
I woke up this morning don’t know where I’m going
But it’s alright I wouldn’t have it any other way
Struggling between the facts and fiction I’m alone
But I’m alive
Everyone around me is trying to make a statement
Then there’s me I’m just trying to survive
Someday I’m gonna find it
Wish I knew what I was looking for
Inside the disarray
I woke up this morning don’t know where I’m going
But it’s alright I wouldn’t have it any other way
If this was any other day I’d pretend to know where I stand
I just don’t know
Jeez, this song could have been written for Sam! (Are Lifehouse fans of Supernatural, by any chance??)
Jasminka, I stand to applaud you and commend your work, once again.
Thanks, enchanting Tim, I thought the same when I listened to it. The Lifehouse guys prove good taste with their music. Therefore I wouldn’t be surprised if they were fans of this show, too. ha! 🙂 Just imagine which celebrities are enjoying this guilty pleasure…
Cheers, dear Celt, Jas
Jas,
This is an excellent song for Sam. Wow! This is a great find and thank you so much for finding it and putting it all together.
😀
Thank you for this article. I don’t know how the people who write articles in this website write so beautifully. Very happy that i found this website.
Hi Jasminka
Wonderful choice for Sam.
I dearly miss him too and the brothers relationship.
Thank you, I need something like this!
I never imagined show would go that route with Sam, never!When I read now articles like “Is Sam Winchester the big bad?” I would like to be able to rip my heart out and with it my passion for the show. I couldn`t take it, after his sacrifice he made ..for nothing when to be brought back and nonetheless being the big bad? I can`t take this! Its like he didn`t had a chance at any time to escape the evil which tried to taint him, before he was born! I would hate this with passion!
My expectations for a season 6 were high for the brothers reforming their bond, being family, getting Sam`s POV, insight in his feelings, and what he went through working on this with his brothers help (because this is a way to actually really form a new bond and even a stronger one), building trust, having each others back for real, don`t have to doubt one of the leads all the time, when he opens his mouth. So -for this I am disappointed.
I am really in awe of Jared`s acting, he is phenomenal and impressing, magnificent in his way of acting ….but I miss Sam so much that it hurts. I really miss him! A light is gone in Swan Song….
This song fits perfectly for Sam, and I enjoy what you do for us fans! Thanks again!!!
You were right to go with this one.
It is perfect.
Listening to some other Lifehouse tracks , they could well be fans as their music does lend itself very well to our boys.
Looking forward to many more of these love Ju
Elle2, anonymousN, Karen, Shadow, Julie and Dany – awwwh, so happy that you enjoy this. I couldn’t resist.
Elle2, it’s such a strange and yet wonderful thing – I hear a song and feel reminded of something,and quite often it is our show. I just love that. Inspiration all around.
AnonymousN, thank you. I think it’s just the love for the subject and the passion for writing and being creative that allows us to come up with ideas you like. This time, the beautiful words came from Lifehouse. I just used them. They are, to my mind, modern poets.
Karen, I do hope there is hope, yet…
Shadow, I understand your thoughts, and in part I have known that kind of disappointment, too. The unique relationship of the brothers has profoundly changed, and none of us seem to have any constructive idea where this is all heading. I am still clinging to hope that the show will save us all from being disappointed.
Inspired by your penname, I thought to give you a quote by Helen Keller, to perhaps ease your mind just a bit: ‘Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.’
Thank you. I think it’s just our love for the whole thing that makes it easy for everyone contributing to this site to give ideas, time, brain tissue (and I don’t mean it literally, hehe) for you readers. It’s always an honour.
Julie, thank you! I was hoping you’d like this. There is another song by LIfehouse I might use sometime. Their lyrics and music are just fabulous.
Dany, dear, yes, we are the Sam-Missers…. Sniff…And thank you for keeping your head in the clouds of hope, too.
Thank you, everyone. Have a great day! Jas
Hey Jas, Beautiful as always. It is a crazy work week this week, me being in retail and all, but if I get a chance would you like me to work on a video for it?
Oh, boobula, this is so moving, you know, thank you… Oh, God, I sound like a drama queen here… :o, I kinda feel like it today, have had an insane day… Well, how do they say, s*hit happens…
If you like and feel inspired – I would love to see what you make of it. But only, of course, if your time allows. No stress, please.
Love, Jas
Hey Jas, This is the one of the things I do to relieve my stress, it never causes me extra! I have lots of drama queen days, it’s all good. 🙂 Hang in there dear.
Love and hugs back at ya.
These lyrics are perfect for our Sam.
Thanks for putting this together!
Dawn
BEAUTIFUL!
Have read the TV Guide article on SPN. (I love it.) I really, really hope that the producers and writers of the show will make all our pain worthwhile; that, at the end of S6, we’ll be satisfied with the reasons why the show took this route.
Hey Boobula, Dawn and FMJemena,you are lovely, ladies!
boobula, I will most certainly look forward to it! Glad that you can relieve your stress by doing this. it’s hard enough to find something that will do that and when you come up with something so creative, it’s pure bliss, isn’t it?
Dawn, I am happy you liked this!
FMJemena, so, we’re all in this hope together – trustint the writers to give our troubled over-fan-ed minds some peace 😉
Cheers to you all, Jas
thank you, CalifornianLeslie – it’s the kind of work one just loves to do. And, well, it’s easy when you love doing what you do 😉
(and I hope you don’t mind me addressing you like that, it’s meant to be a term of endearment).
:-), Jas
*and here she exhaled and smiled happily* 🙂 Thank you, dear.
Hey Jas, I finally finished the video. I just hate when things like life and work and stuff get in the way of doing fun stuff. Hope you like it. I really did have a good time with it. I’m very glad you aren’t offended since I keep “swiping” your ideas!
