Damien Echols you are a gift from the gods and i am spending the morning crying and rejoicing your new found freedom.... you were always free and will be forever. Sending you and graves lots of love.
they're free so free, you rock damien and michale graves,u know that they had nothing on you all, thats why they let u go on a 1st degree murder admition without any chance to sue,they have absolutely nothing on the wm3 thats why they let them go free,nothing at all,fucking laws cant ever prove shit,so lets just make them pretend they did it,they didn't,and the law had nothing on them,they just knew that they'd be let free eventually,our fucking judicial system sucks, so corrupted
i was lucky enough to talk to graves about it one time. poetry is by echols and he is also the backing vocals that you hear. echols recorded it in prsion and sent it to graves. graves and echols still keep in touch. my prayers go out to the wm3 and their family's
People who are interested in the WM3 case, watch Paradise Lost on Netflix. There is gruesome footage of the poor boys that were murdered in the beginning though, so if you're upset easily then I'd pass on it.
I love this song, it totally goes to show how talented michale graves is, and damian echoes, the song has to ways of it being played, live michale plays it in c, the album is b. :)
Beautiful song. I can't express my love for it. Damien majorly needs to pursue a writing career when he is released (Which will hopefully be soon, on the account a new judge has FINALLY been appointed to Jessi, Jason, and Damien's case)..his poetry is lovely. Michale Graves did a excellent job on the musical addition to the song as well.
@murdaman702 August 19th they all were. That's an old comment up there and I'm thankful for their release, they can live their own life, though I believe they still got screwed over by the kind of plea bargain they had to take. That wasn't justice, but, they are out.
@BlackDahliaNix sorry i didn't see the date on the comment lol.....but I totally agree they basically has to admit they did something they did do just to have freedom, but i'm glad they are out .....2 bad the real kiier is still out there
@murdaman702 That's fine lol. But yeah, they had to admit they did it to be released. Though the upside is they are out. If police had done their job correctly, the real killer wouldn't be out there. I believe it's Terry Hobbs who murdered the little boys, too much evidence points to him. Neighbors saying he had the boys, hair belonging to him and a friend found at the scene, and he didn't even alert the mother until AFTER work, so he wouldn't disturb her. Sketchy, full fledged.
@BlackDahliaNix I agree they just wanted to blame them poor kids because of the way they dressed and the music they were into,,,,Terry Hobbs will get his in the end
The mother of one child (Terry Hobbs ex wife) and the step father (Mark Byers) of another believe that he is innocent. It is Terry Hobbs DNA that was found in a ligature of where one of the children were tied up. Terry Hobbs denies ever seeing the children that day, now there are NEW witnesses that heard him yelling for the children around 6-6:30pm. Another thing, if your step son was missing, wouldn't you call your wife and tell her??? He waited for her to get off of work. HMMM???
@greenjellybean978 thank you for having common sense!!!! the WM3 are innocent. HELL AWAITS terry hobbs and all others responsible for imprisoning Damien Jesse and Jason.
@WinchesterMonster Yeah, but you said only he could make a song that good, and it's full of emotion and a strong message. So it seemed as if you were crediting Graves for the message. Sorry for the misunderstanding on my part. Great song though.
my fav singer in whole world i love him he has a great voice and hes a cool guy i cant explain his music 2 any1 i mean its weird i cant explain his music people have 2 hear themselvs
one to death, and the only "evidence" was a heavy metal shirt that led the plaintiff's lawyer to believe that they were satanic. The WM3 is the worse case instance of labelling. I think Michale graves and a bunch of ppl wqho believe they are innocent should march up to the gates of the prison and sing this song. and other songs Damien Echols wrote with Michale graves. And then keep singing until they free the West Mepmhis three. .
@mattikickass yeah its fucked up listening to this song could u imagine being locked up in freezing prison for 15 years of a crime u didnt commit and could u imagine being on death row at age 18 the thought still blows my mind fuck the law
this was written by young man who is on death row michale is trying to get him a new trail because the usa a knows the west memphis three did not kill those kids what a sad world were three peolpe are in prison for nothing
i think they did it and if u can give me evidence from both sides then i can change my mind but ppl dont just get arrested for that kinda thing just for the hell of it
Wikipedia the West Memphis 3. Within a few minutes of reading into it, it should be pretty obvious why there is a strong chance they are innocent. Even the father of one of the boys that was murdered says there is no doubt in his mind that the WM3 are innocent. Please research before you post an ignorant comment.
they're innocent, pretty much the only evidence police had was they listened to metal, the police questioned one of the boys with a lie detector test, and when it came up that he wasn't lying, they told him it said he was.
Micheal Graves is one of the nicest people i have ever met. i talked to him for half an hour, and by the end of that he already felt like a brother to me.
If you have been in teh same room as Graves and STILL havent met him and talked to him you must be a total fuckin weirdo, He's the most chill guy ever just say "HEY MIKE!' and he will sit and talk to you hearts content
I'M SO HAPPY THAT THEY FREED THE WM3!! <l:P
