The Butterfly
This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
The Beginning
After three years I finally know how it all fits together.
“Unfortunately throughout life we continually remind ourselves of the past with guilt and regret about our failures when we should really focus on what we can do so as not to repeat the same mistakes again. If you let the past dominate your future, you have no future.”
Prologue
I stand motionless in a bedroom. My mind is driven by the stillness and darkness of the night. My friends lie sleeping all around me. One lies on the bed the in front of me, and a few others on the floor with blankets pulled up over their eyes. Light shines in weakly and piercingly through a crack in the bathroom door. My shadow falls onto the bed and over my friend. What is this impulse? This crushing weight to end life is nothing but a strain on my body. It pulls on my limbs for action. It takes me for a moment. A flash in my mind I see myself holding my friend’s head under a pillow. It hungers for blood. Blood on my hands.

::: Every Other Way :::
Well friends and loved ones, here is the moment you’ve been waiting for.
After 7,222 views in around 48 hours, you have earned about 3 min of music based on our Twitter contest rules (500 views=12 seconds).
I am in a generous mood, and well, since the chorus happens almost 5 minutes into the song, here is 6 minutes of Every Other Way.
I must say, there are some huge surprises in this track in the second half. You’ll just have to wait for the album to hear them. Thank you all for the kind words and tweets. What a fun 2 days.
Consider this Tumblr my official location for album countdown. More to come…soon. Lots more :)
