I am not tumbling much am I? I’m still blogging every now and then on www.commonterry.com. Not sure if I will be tumbling much at all, so if you’re looking for my words they will likely be there….

Darkening of the Light Screenplay

I posted a link on my main blog, www.commonterry.com, where you can download and/or view a copy of the screenplay I wrote for a never to be completed Star Wars fanfilm called “Darkening of the Light”. We did shoot some footage, though, so at some point in the future I may post footage. For now, though, I hope that anyone who reads the screenplay enjoys it.

By the way - it is 60 pages long so prepare yourself for a read if you actually are interested….

Hello
Just wanted to say hello again
I miss you
I miss you, I thought you were my friend
Goodbye
Goodbye for there is always an end
It hurts
It hurts and it will until we meet again

commonterry:

Woo Hoo I just installed the tumblr app on my iPhone! This is a test!

just beware of drunk Tumblr posts and the repercussions in the morning when you see what you’ve posted the night before…and how its barely readable in the english language.

LOL! Will do as I’m sure there will be many….

You’re on my mind
Exactly every day
Magnify singularity
Exactly every day
Seek faith and hope
Exactly every day
It breaks my heart
Exactly…

…every time I breathe
Every time I breathe
Breathe

You ring my ear
Exactly every day
There’s no inverse
Exactly every day
Am I ringing you
Exactly every day?
I feel so lost
Exactly…

…every time I breathe
Every time I breathe….

I’m writing in a notebook where you signed your name
I didn’t know it was there
I picked it up to write this song about you
And there’s your name
Life is so strange

Could be this empty
Exactly every day
Could be that perfect
Exactly every day
Could be reflected
Exactly every day
Could be less than three
Exactly…

…every time we breathe
Every time we breathe
Could be less than three
Every time we breathe
It could be.
-- “Could Be”

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me you’ll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances but they’re worth taking
Loving might be a mistake but it’s worth making
Don’t let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out - reconsider
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small when you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me you’ll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance….

…Dance!

I hope you dance
I hope you dance

(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)

I don’t wanna live my life in chains
Feel these voices swimming in my brain
All they do is dig a deeper hole
Deep enough to hold my tortured soul
—-
Here come the demons, as far as I can see
Runnin’ and screaming, chasing after me
Maybe I’m dreaming, but I know I won’t be free ‘til
Rider and horse drown in the sea
Rider and horse drown in the sea

There ain’t nothing for me down these tracks
But an ugly monkey on my back
I need an angel like I need a fix
Something to hit me like a ton of bricks
—-
Here come the demons, as far as I can see
Runnin’ and screaming, chasing after me
Maybe I’m dreaming, but I know I won’t be free ‘til
Rider and horse drown in the sea
Rider and horse drown in the sea
