Laura looks at the sea as only certain children of the Northeast know how to look at it
But Venice is not the sea, it's just an ideal
That you can never embrace
And then never
She moves her hair to the right shoulder and reveals that design secretly made to her father
But now even the priest has a tattoo with my soul written on it
It's of God
Time does not stop, it has never stopped and who knows where what has passed has gone
Maybe in that drawer where I used to hide the tin foil or in Mauro's Bar
Cursed be the day I trusted this country
Filthy, lost, embarrassed, cold, gray, lonely, devastated
Where I thought I was close to you, but the troubles were the only close ones
And yours
The ambulance screams
And takes away my father, the blood is now dried
At least I introduced you to him
Then I ran away
Florence, Rimini, Ferrara
The plain and the highway
But the sun rises every day and every day the boys in the park get high
Down from this cliff, down into the sea vertically
Down and then swim, there's nothing else to do, without swearing
Quiet and don't say a word so much the soul doesn't count
You go free and happy, you find me where you know

Now I will look for, a friend, a job
Then I don't know
A house, the decor
And then I only saw sea, sea, sea
So much sea only so much water in the lungs that it hurts and you can't breathe
That you ask the fish how they do it
But they will never tell you, you know
Friends without end
It seems to go crazy
They tell you well done, well done, you're special, but how good you are, you're a prodigy, you're brilliant
But until he tells you, or she tells you, it doesn't count

Let's go downtown, let's go downtown
Let's go see the strollers roll
People buy what they can't have
Or more simply we will stay here
But the sun rises every day and every day that passes becomes a memory
Down from this cliff, down into the sea vertically
Down and then swim
There's nothing else to do
Without swearing
Quiet and don't say a word so much
The soul doesn't count
You go free and happy
You find me where you know
