Something a little different. Hope you like it! More explanation at the end of the video.

This sounds infinitely better when listening through headphones, so if you've got a pair, bust 'em out! :)

for you the silver lining rules the sky
like a reigning buddha in your eye
the glass is never on its way to empty
and I'm frightened dear that someday soon it will be

now you can't take me with you
'cause I can't get that high
but I will surely miss you
goodbye, butterfly

for you the flowers grow but never die
and comets are just friendly passers-by
it's easy to be brave among the darkness
for one who doesn't notice when the sun sets

now you can't take me with you
'cause I can't get that high
but I will surely miss you
goodbye, butterfly

if tragedy should fall upon the masses
you'll just mark the map
and head to greener grasses
you're rarely down to earth enough to probe it
but you look so damn beautiful in orbit

now you can't take me with you
'cause I can't get that high
but I will surely miss you
goodbye, butterfly

you can't take me with you
'cause I can't get that high
but I will surely miss you
goodbye, butterfly

yeah, I will surely miss you
goodbye, butterfly

goodbye, butterfly

goodbye, butterfly

  • Although I enjoy your guitar, I don't believe this song would fare as well with it as it does with this type of accompaniment. It seems you wrote this melody with garageband in mind. I've found myself liking this song and its lyrics. Apparently…you can do no wrong...

  • I love your creativity! Please keep up the good work. This is a great format for you. YOu should include more of it. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful talents.

  • i love the lyrics to this song alot. i also like that u do the blues in a cash way and that in a kinda new wave or new fangeld way,,,,,.... but i can sense the grunge in your heart!!!!!!!!! idk if thats all true but i like nirvana cash and for some reason lady gaga and it seems that u are a perfect inbetween>.

  • Auto tune?...

  • I wonder if if would not do well by setting up a private party tour, where you invite about a dozen or so fans to a small musical performance in someone's house, and sell tickets at a premium. There is a movement of this sort of thing going on is some areas of the country, where bands that are popular locally are invited to play for a small group of people who pay as much as $100 a person to attend. It is a more intimate setting, where one gets to interact with the band/musicians between sets

  • @DarkSedna I like that selection, especially if you used your youtube versions, sans the comments you often make at the end of a video. I think a DVD of some or all of your videos would be a great alternative to a CD. I would buy it.

  • Yu have such an A M A Z I N G voice<3

  • @DarkSedna If not "Nightsong" for track 5, a live accoustic version of "Chance" would also be really cool.

  • This is and Library Girl are my favorite songs of yours. If I could pick the songs for your next EP album, they would Be:

    1. Library Girl

    2. Sister Don't Cry

    3.  Wonder

    4. Good Bye Butterfly

    5. Nightsong

  • Sounds pretty great through the surround sound too. I hope my neighbors like it too.
