Artist picture
Am an eclectic acoustic rocker with country roots and a southern floydish sound. Guitars speak in all languages.
I've written under RusTnale and now Wil Russoul... besides performing my songs under these names and Bleeding Society, I have also written for Annie Jo. Making music is a gift, I choose to use it to encourage others and myself.

Story behind the song
I worked with an 11 year old boy who molested and raped other children. The police had 110 counts on him. He seemed so young and innocent. Hence my reaction in this song.
Lyrics
Killing Butterflies Written 02-11-00 Copyright INVALID 2000 Russell W. Sonmore All Rights Reserved- 3:59 min Standing outside this gate Waiting for the motorcade All the hunters came to stare at you Dont know if I believe, all the things that Ive read Ill reserve my thoughts except for one Youre much younger than I thought you were Theres a wolf in your eyes In a moment you stole grace from her Like killing butterflies Before they can fly I read that youve appealed, your sentence is too high I bet you sleep at night no matter what Sure this child will heal from the scars youve left behind She prays all the wolves have starved and died Butterfly, let the warm wind take you high Butterfly, those fragile butterflies All the wolves, need to stop, killing butterflies How Do They All Survive?
