ENGLISH LYRICS
The girl and the crow
I sat the other day and read my newspaper
A day like so many others before
And I thought about all those dreams
You dream that one after another have come to an end
 
Then I saw a picture of a girl
With a wounded crow on her arms
She runs through the forest
As fast as she possibly can
 
And her curly hair flutters when she runs
She runs on her thin legs
And she prays and begs and hopes and believes
That it's not too late
 
The girl is little and her hair is so bright
And her cheek is flickering red
The crow is clumsy and croaks black
In a moment it's completely dead
 
But the girl runs for her life
With a wounded crow in her arms
She runs towards safety and warmth
For what is real and true
 
And she runs with sparkling eyes
She runs with think legs
Because she thinks it's true, what dad has said:
If there's life it's never too late
 
And I run with my heart beating
I run with thin legs
And I pray and beg, but I actually know
That it is already too late

Flickan & Kråkan ( The Girl and the Crow )

The Twist of the Tale

When I first heard this I instantly picked up a  blusey mid eastern flavour to it and decided to pick up on that theme. I used Pauls track "Remember" in it's entirety with no edits to do some post production work around it, picking up on that eastern vibe I was getting !! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did making it.  
A BIG thank you to Paul for this opportunity and for all your great support!!

The Long Journey

The Long Journey // PAPLOVIANTE // CAMBERELLI

"Take aim at his heart now!" he yelled. "And shoot for the head!" shouted back his armed colleague. But with tears in the formers' eyes, he knew he had already lost the fight. The longer he wore on in the battle with his foe, the greater his uncertainty. 
This song is about a mercenary remembering an encounter with a fellow mercenary. They were both after the same target and the first, unarmed mercenary was forced to kill his armed colleague with a car.
Listening to the story of the song, one may get the sense that betrayal and regret are central themes; however, they are only one of the many threads unfurled in the song. Violence and mercy are more central, especially within the mind's eye of the protagonist re-living what had occurred on one fateful day.
A violent mind may not breed mercy, but mercy will never hold a place (or a candle, if you will) in the minds of those whose idea of violence is not honourable and just -- in a moral sense, of course. Moral compasses change direction from person to person, from time to time, and from situation to situation. They can even, sometimes, point to one's own fate -- mercifully or not.

LYRICS:
Somebody once told me
In a ripped-up rage
Had eyes like a monster, and it came
Like the wind against my head.
So Drive Like You Stole It
With nothing to say
Eyes runnin' like water, to this day
I could not relate.

Hearing slowed-down sounds
Of an engine roaring,
Wheels rollin' to a cliff's end
And shot out in escape.
So it seemed
Was a blow to my youth.

Somebody once told me
In a ripped-up rage
Had eyes like a monster, and it came
Like the wind against my head.
So Drive Like You Stole It
With nothing to say
Eyes runnin' like water, to this day
I could not relate.

Seeing moving parts
As it comes upon him,
Devoted locomotion
To bring about elimination.
What I've seen
I have created.

Somebody once told me
In a ripped-up rage
Had eyes like a monster, and it came
Like the wind against my head.
So Drive Like You Stole It
With nothing to say
Eyes runnin' like water, to this day
I could not relate.

Take aim at his heart now
And shoot for the head
A backstabber grieving his existence,
So tortured.
Hold up a candle
In a darkened cave
Canot fix what cannot be seen:
I refuse to replay.

Like You Stole It

Similar to R I.P.  A bit of fun with a Dylanesque type blues.
