Put down the phone
It's such a normal evening
That one could almost feel good
On this bed that's like a raft
Let me look at you
I know your face by heart
But sometimes I discover a new line
I never want to lose them again
And I wonder if a black hole is bigger
Or my ability to perceive your pain
If the astronaut leaves to see the sky up close
Or just his home from afar

I saw you turn off one by one
Those lights you had in your eyes
And you told me there's nothing left
Nothing to illuminate
I wanted to tell you that's not true
It's not true, it's not true
And if you now plunge into darkness
I can't see anymore

And it seems nice here
Inside a small and imperfect life
That some days you can almost bear
And you feel like protecting it
And how much is this neglected gesture worth
Of turning off the same light to fall asleep
But it took exactly all the time it needed
To tell you the only possible I love you
I saw you kill one by one
All the dreams you had in your pockets
And you told me they are fantasies
We are not children anymore
I wanted to tell you that's not true
It's not true, it's not true
And if you now give up
I can't fight anymore

I wanted, I wanted to tell you that's not true
It's not true, it's not true
And if you now stop I can't anymore
To go, walk, move a meter
Run, run away to return

And you came back that time
When you knew it was really over
And you told me I'm disgusting it's all my fault
And it can't be fixed
I wanted to tell you that's not true
It's not true, it's not true
And that only with time
You learn the art of gluing
And if you now get lost
I can't find myself anymore
But I would dirty this silence
There's no need to talk anymore
Put down the phone
