Man & Madame Mystery Copyright Rolf G Riley all rights reserved One day you look at me Next day you turn from me Can’t be no smoke Without fire Sometimes you’re loving me Mostly you’re killing me Break through this agony Liar Go eat your heart Man of mystery  What did you take from me Man of mystery What did you learn from me Don’t talk to me that way You can’t hide from what you say This road is taking me Higher Take what you want from me Spit out what you don’t need Each little part of me The Carcass on which you feed Go eat your heart Oh Man of mystery What did you want from me  Man of mystery  You will remember me  Man of mystery What will you ever be Man of mystery Take back your memory Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Go eat your heart You better run for cover You’ll never find another Eat out your heart Oh Madame mystery  What did you take from me Man of mystery What did you learn from me Madame mystery What did you want from me  Oh Man of mystery  You will remember me  Take what you want from me Spit out what you don’t need Each little part of me The Carcass on which you feed

Who's there? Copyright Rolf G Riley all rights reserved (Dark night pre morning) It's time to turn from their night And dance in your light (Starlight no warning) The timing is so right Just talk to me tonight (Night time dark shadow) 'Cos you are more than just one life You've been such a lonely child (Eyes closed time frozen) It's no surprise that you cried (Mother Mother Mother) Who's there Come out if you dare Who's there I'm here watching over you I'm here whatever you do I'm here watching over you I'm here whatever you do (Dark night pre morning) In time you'll open all these doors And take back what's yours (Starlight no warning) You will not lose this fight It's just the dark of night (Night time dark shadow) I am morning I am light as I touch your broken mind (Eyes closed time frozen) As you seek you will find (Mother Mother Mother) who's there come out if you dare who's there I'm here watching over you I'm here whatever you do I'm here watching over you I'm here whatever you do Can you hear me I can't see you Can you feel me As you haunt me tonight Can you hear me I can't see you Can you feel me As you haunt me tonight I'm here watching over you I'm here whatever you do I'm here watching over you I'm here whatever you do It's time to turn from their night And dance in your light The timing is so right Just talk to me tonight 'Cos you are more than just one life You've been such a lonely child It's no surprise that you cried Tonight

I've seen God and God's seen me Now you've seen my fall from grace Can you help me leave this place Tonight I've seen the light in front of me The life I miss returned in one kiss Lie tonight forever Outside the storm of life Fall from grace Now I've seen your fall from Grace Fall from grace Now it's time to leave this place I hide behind my mask of lace As darkness falls across your face A passion burned into this ground Where life and love no more can be found Lie tonight forever Outside the storm of life Fall from grace Now I've seen your fall from grace Fall from grace Now it's time to leave this place I've seen God and Gods seen me I've known love and destiny One last dance you never know On your own you've got to go Lie tonight forever Outside the storm of life Fall from grace Passion burned into this ground Fall from grace Life and love no more can be found Fall from grace I'm safe behind this mask of lace Fall from grace Now I've eased you from this place Fall from grace

I heard nothing I saw nothing Just the writing on the wall I felt nothing I had nothing Only hope as I recall those words washed over me while I knew nothing I loved nothing Just the writing on the wall Starlight Moons so bright Golden leaves On a cold autumn breeze Shatter like ice As rivers turn to streams And children's dreams Whatever they mean Are just writing on the wall I wrote nothing I read nothing Just the writing on the wall I said nothing It meant nothing Only hope as I recall those words washed over me while I chose nothing I changed nothing Just the writing on my wall Starlight Moons so bright Golden leaves On a cold autumn breeze Shattered like ice As rivers turned to streams And children's dreams Whatever they mean Are just Starlight Moons so bright Golden leaves On a cold autumn breeze Shattered like ice As rivers turned to streams And our children's screams Whatever they mean Are just writing on their walls

Take what you want Steel what you need Everything's legal When there's mouths to feed So tear me all apart And break my heart I'm not a thief I'm not a priest I'm just a man who feeds the beast Just holding out for hope so I can cope Still I fight Still I cry alone at night Still I fight Still I cry alone alone at night Still I fight I still fight Take what you want Steel what you need There ain't much faith in a heart that bleeds Just holding out for hope so I can cope I'm not a prince I'm not a king I'm just a man who lost everything So tear me all apart and break my heart Still I fight Still I cry alone at night Still I fight Still I cry alone alone at night Still I fight I still fight I'm not a thief I'm not a priest I'm not a prince And I am not a king I'm just a man who lost everything But I'm not a creep And I'm not a freak Still I fight Still I cry alone at night Still I fight Still I cry alone alone at night Still I fight Still I cry alone at night Still I fight Still I cry alone at night Still I fight I still fight

Tell me what you know and I will let it go It's dark tonight And cold inside A living hell where once was light Inside this mind I lived a lie So much time got left behind So I just wonder What I had to do When I still hungered For every part of you Just tell me what you know so I can let it go Tell me what you know and I will let it go It's time to leave These memories Their darkness haunts me constantly As I perceive What's next for me My eyes they bleed incessantly And I still wonder What I had to do When I still hungered For every part of you Just tell me what you know so I can let it go Tell me what you know and I will let it go Just tell me what you know so I can let it go Tell me what you know and I will let it go Just tell me what you know so I can let it go Tell me what you know and I will let it go Just tell me what you know so I can let it go Tell me what you know and I will let it go And I still wonder What I have to do So I don't wonder Just tell me

about

Featuring the haunting vocals of Dawne Pickersgill & the song writing & melodic fast lead guitar of Rolf G Riley, Man & Madame Mystery delivers.

Each song is born out of personal experience, dreams, or just plain old imagination & presented in Bonny R's unique style.

From the heavy rock with a difference title track, to the bewitching acoustic tale of Dear Lady, the road smash inspired WTF, to the Day they came for Me & You a moving tribute to a 9/11 fire fighter, Bonny R's thirteen song self produced Heavy Rock album is not to be missed.
