I became a father a few hours ago. It’s a girl and her name is Vendela Marina Karolina. Got to catch up on the sleep now…

Don’t worry, I didn’t kill anyone…yet. This song is called “The Man I Killed” (hence the title) and was recorded live at Telephone Road.

When they tightly strap me in, give me lethal injection,
Just a few more minutes to live, no remorse for what I did,
It was for the betterment of man, I gave the utmost sacrifice,
Before more damage could be done I took his life.
There was a split second of silence when the dart punctured the skin,
Beady eyes rolled back in head, the body dropped from the poison,
They could incapacitate me, but could not erase my sneer,
I heard a thousand people screaming, while three billion others cheered,
He was gone, and I would soon be…
Executed by the state, all appeals would be in vain,
I was not criminally insane, in fact, I was found to be,
An otherwise caring and respectable member of society,
A minor threat except for that one that I killed.
As the sedatives take effect, I just smile and close my eyes,
There’s a priest kneeling next to me, he asked me if I realized,
I was going straight to hell, and he thought that I should know,
That the man I killed’s replacement planned this whole scenario,
And what I did had no significance at all.

I’m not surprised. My ambition far exceeded my talent. The album has been postponed and will probably not be released until the end of this year, or maybe in the beginning of next year. Too many things have come in between right now which I didn’t expect. I did expect having a child though and the closer it gets (only a matter of weeks or days) the more nervous I get, making it difficult to concentrate on the music. Also, not only do I have a new post at my job, I’m studying too, trying to catch up on school as a result of being a high school drop out. I have been writing some new songs though. The tracklist has increased from 14 to 16 tracks. Stay tuned. I’ll report after the baby has decided to pop out.
