Runaway
There’s a shiver in my heart
Meant to never fade away
Like a beacon built to thwart
Life’s plans day after day
From the moment I awake
To the second I close
My eyes, I raise the stakes
Of this existence I once chose
I’m a runaway
Roaming to find my way
There’s a shimmer in my veins
Every time I hit the streets
Pursuing love in vain
‘til I’m feeling all complete
Some may think I’m a fool
Chasing things that don’t exist
I’d say ‘roving is my fuel
And I’m enjoying every twist’
I’m a runaway
Roaming to find my way
I’m a runaway
Roaming to find my way

Flowers
Kneel down, close to me
Hear me whisper, in your ear
Everything’s fine, you can move on and let it be
Bend over, look at me
Try to make it nice and easy
I need to feel you, once again, next to me
I’m bringing you flowers, dead flowers from a grave
I’ll keep bringing you flowers, dead flowers from a grave
Will you remember me?
When the time has passed, cold and lonely
Would you cherish this flame that’s our story?
The wind blows on your face
Carrying my last breath
Don’t cry, you had to lie, anyway
Just bring me flowers, dead flowers from a grave
Please, keep bringing me flowers, dead flowers from a grave
I won’t go anywhere; I’ll never let you down
You’ll always know where I am, right under this ground
And you will bring me flowers, dead flowers from a grave
Please, keep bringing me flowers, dead flowers for my grave

Dead Of Night
Daylight’s coming to an end
Making room for the
Night to slide in me
Bedtime as a date with the Sandman
Waiting for dusk to dust
My eyes and grab me
What’s that sound?
It creeps the hell out of
Me, every night
I can’t sleep, too scared to die
Inside the shelter that’s my bed
I shiver at the noises
That are all around me
Lifelike nightmares
What’s that sound?
It creeps the hell out of
Me, every night
I can’t sleep, too scared to die
There’s no-one but me in the end
I’m all alone, waiting for the
Light and the dead of night

Unity
Long gone the days
When you were away
Not even knowing I existed
How incomplete
I would have been
May I not have found you
You filled up my heart with songs from the past
You filled up my life with love
You just have to smile
Or stare at my eyes
To prove life is worth fighting for
With you I’ll be
The one and only
The second half of our unity
You filled up my heart with songs from the past
You filled up my life with love
You fill up my heart with songs from the past
You fill up my life with love

Blackmail
I’d sue my soul if that could help me be myself, even less than a day
My teeth grind before this last meal you ordered me on the way
Blackmail my heart
Take him everything he’s got
Empty eyes for empty times only the abyss sees clearly
Numb and cold, the old man falls down only to kill his feelings
Blackmail my heart
Take him everything he’s got
You blackmailed my heart
You took him everything he’s got

The Last Laugh
What’s the use in getting sober now,
As I’m still intoxicated with you somehow?
Stop ruling my life and ruining my hopes
I’m a grown man now, I can cope
Where’s the truth? Can you tell me now?
I don’t trust you but I’ll have to somehow
Spit it out, get out there, show me what you got
‘cause I won’t forgive what I never forgot
You’ve been playing with my heart
And tearing my soul apart
Infiltrating
My blood and mind and life
Why do you always get away
With murder, day after day?
Every man you trap with your embrace
Is to soon disappear anyway
You’ve been playing with my heart
And tearing my soul apart
Infiltrating
My blood and mind and life
You’ve been laughing at my life
Laughing at my lies
Laughing at my scars
Who’ll get the last laugh?
You’ve been playing with my heart
And tearing my soul apart
Infiltrating
My blood and mind and
You’ve been torturing my heart
And scorching my soul to ashes
I won’t give up as
My blood and mind life are mine
Who will get the last laugh?

Soul & Bones
The floor’s been swept, the walls still stand
And carry the ceilings above our
Heads filled with dreams that hurt
The very core of our
Soul and bones, we are but to pass
We won’t grow old again
Every twilight is the last one, for we
Won’t go home again
‘til we rest in peace
The stairs that led to the house
We all knew disappeared
In a flash of light
Taking the best years of our
Lives with them,
No Place left for any past
We won’t grow old again
Every twilight is the last one, for we
Won’t go home again
‘til we rest in peace ‘cause
We won’t grow old again
For the last time ‘cause we
Won’t go home again
‘til we rest in peace

Long Way From Home
It all started with a crash
The stars waving in the dark above
Calling me from ashore
I hit the road and followed the light
Through the cities and the lands that life
Had abandoned for sure
No other soul to meet out there but mine
I’m all but
A long way from home
Was it me, is it the end?
All those questions fill my head as I
Am longing for more
Through the mess there is a chance
A way of getting out of this, tall
Proud and pure
No other choice but to make it worth the fight
I’m all but
A long way from home
Now everything’s been said and done
A long way from home
The liar’s truth may be
A long way from home
Now everything’s been said and done
The liar’s truth may be the only one
Thing to account for
No other goal but to seize the day ‘cause life
Is all but
A long way from home
Take me on a journey where I can finally find a place to call my own
Take me on a journey where I can finally find a place I can call home

Above The Moon
Where do dreams go when we’re awake?
What part of us lies inside a breath?
I want to follow the rhythm of your thoughts
But will you just leave me alone, again
Your eyes closed on mine
We share the world
Could I join you on your journey above the moon?
What is still real and what is not?
Maybe we’re strangers to the plot
Designing our very fate, our destiny, our inner self
Shouldn’t life be something else, again?
My eyes closed on these rhymes
I wonder the world
Could we all go on a journey above the moon?
Let’s bring our dreams to life

The Wave
Nobody cares
Nothing remains
The same, day after day
Life’s a wave, impossible to tame
Drifting, spinning, around you
Evolving, changing for you, and only…
You see chains
In my grains of sand
We used to know the rules of the game
But refused to go down that road again
I’m trying, reaching for you
Howling, fighting for you, and only you
Waiting, craving for you
Bleeding, dying for you, and only you

Be Blues/ The Devil Is Dead (EP)
by Portobello Express
supported by 4 fans who also own “Woodn Bones [Deluxe Edition]”
This EP is just as awesome as the artwork and logo. The music is in the spirit of Janis Joplin, A Band Called Smith and Jefferson Airplane to give you a hint. The band backing up the fantastic lead vocalist Happy Betty is tight and very competent. Like the best of the 60s with updated sound quality!
