Broken (Rotto)
22 dic
Hard times flowing and my eyes couldn’t see stars shining
My heart couldn’t feel the beauty of the rising sun
And I’m lost like a bottle that floats in the sea for ever
Will somebody pick up my hope?
Will somebody try?
Will I realize?
’cause it’s broken broken
Something got broken like stolen
Stolen, like if it was stolen
And hurting, hurting
I have been hurting and now
Only time will tell
Time will heal
Just pieces of truth that I chose to keep
No matter if now they are gone
No matter if I am alone
Still I can get back on my feet and walk on
As I know there was something to learn
I know there will always be more worth moving on for
Though, it’s broken broken
Something got broken like stolen
Stolen, like if it was stolen
And hurting hurting
I have been hurting and now
Only time will tell
’cause it’s broken broken
Something got broken like stolen
Stolen, like if it was stolen
And hurting hurting
I have been hurting and now
Only time will tell
I’d love to be one of those colorful early summer days
When everybody is happy that you came
Everybody smiles back at you as soon as your eyes cross their eyes
But something has to happen first
I know winter has to come before it blossoms
So it’s broken broken
Something got broken like stolen
Stolen, like if it was stolen
And hurting hurting
I have been hurting and now
Only time will tell
‘cause it’s broken broken
Something got broken like stolen
Stolen, like if it was stolen
And hurting hurting
I have been hurting and now
Only time will tell
Time will heal

Fever (Febbre)
13 dic
Why do you wanna know everything
Why do you need a plan in your mind
Why do you smile if you don’t want to
Why do you act if this is all true
How can you keep your wish inside you
How can I just forget about you
When I could never lie to you
When I could never hide it from you
Even if I’d only give you silence
You would know
What’s taking place in my mind
But your world has got the fever
You’re killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and don’t see it
Why do we end up being so lonely?
Now where have your eyes gone if nothing scares you
Why is this all just never enough
To make you happy
To stop your thinking
’cause your world has got the fever
You’re killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and you don’t see it
Think I’m falling give me your hand
Think I’m falling give me your hand
Think I’m falling give me your hand
Think I’m falling give me your hand
I was walking when I saw a bird in the sky
And I followed its flight with my eyes
I felt like I could take myself up there
And it just made me smile inside
And it just made me fall in love
With everything
But your world has got the fever
You’re killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and don’t see it
But your world has got the fever
You’re killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
And you step on it and don’t see it
Your world has got the fever
It is shaking and you jump on it
But your world has got the fever
You’re killing it with your reasons
Your world has got the fever
Your world has got the fever

Electricity (Elettricità)
12 dic
Your daughter.. she’s a dancer
Living in Buenos Aires
Sleeping on a mattress on the floor
Yes, sleeping on a mattress on the floor
Did you ever ask her how she feels?
Did you ever ask her if she feels?
Electricity through her body
That one thing that can make one happy
Like electricity through a body
Your father he’s a rich man
And he’s got many questions
He always wakes up with you in his head
He always wakes up with you in his head
And did you ever ask him how he feels?
And did you ever ask him how he feels?
That electricity through his body
That one thing that can make one happy
Like electricity through a body
It’s that one thing that can make one happy, yeah
Your daughter is a woman living with her lover
And she’s trying to do the best that she can
Yeah she’s trying to do the best that she can
And did you ever ask her how she feels?
And did you ever ask her if she feels?
Electricity through her body
That one thing that can make one happy
Like electricity through your body
That one thing that can make you happy
And you don’t need to have more, oh no, oh no,
Oh no, you don’t need to have more
You don’t need to ask for more
You don’t need to ask for more
You don’t need to have more..

The Waves (Le Onde)
11 dic
I’ll get away, get in the car
I’ll reach the shore before sunrise
And I’ll watch the moon and stars
I’ll tell them everything never us
I left last night
I reached the shore
Trying to find everything I lost
In a thousand waves
A million waves
Oh still, somewhere I am sure
That I’ll see your face
I will see you there
Morning sun
Before you’ll rise
Before you’ll come and shine again on us
Let me find, let me find, let me find
Some comfort in the night
I don’t mind what I’ve lost
I’ve reached the shore
And nothing ever changed
In a thousand waves
A million waves
Oh still I look for love
And all I see is your face
All I see is your face
I bleed but I’m choosing you again
I’m done but I’m ready to begin
All I see is your face
All I see is your face
So I come back home to you

Rock your soul (Scuotere la tua anima)
10 dic
The more I think, the less I see
when I’m able to walk
I’m queen of my world
I let it rain on my skin
I don’t let myself down
I don’t let myself down
just wanna be one with you
wanna be one with you
The more I think, the less I do
when I’m able to talk
I’m queen of my world
I let it rain on my skin
I don’t ask myself why
I don’t ask myself why
I wanna be one with you
wanna be one with you
and all I want is to rock your soul
all I want is to rock your soul
all I want is to rock your soul
I feel closer to the clouds
I’m touching all the highest leaves
on topo of the trees
It’s my desire’s release
we let it rain on our skin
you’re holding my hand
I’m holding your life
‘n I feel like I’m one with you
and all I want is to rock your soul
all I want is to rock your soul
all I want is to rock your soul
I think I have to give you something
and more than words is that something
I show you my dreams
to make’ em our dreams
won’t you just be
I’m what you see
and all I want is to rock your soul
all I want is to rock your soul
all I want is to rock your soul
Together with the sun
we shine all the way
together with the rain
we fall through the air
Together with the sun
we shine all the way
together with the rain
with the sun
with the rain
the rain and the sun
with the rain
and the sun
and the sun

Heaven out of hell (Dell’inferno il padadiso)
3 dic
So are you turning around your mind
do you think the sun won’t shine this time
are you breathing only half of the air
are you giving only half of a chance
don’t you wanna shake because you love
cry because you care
feel ’cause you’re alive
sleep because you’re tired
make heaven, heaven out of hell now …
are you locked up in you counting the days
oh how long until you have your freedom
just shake because you love
cry because you care
feel ’cause you’re alive
sleep because you’re tired
shake because you love
bleed ’cause you got hurt
die because you lived
make heaven, heaven out of hell now …
are you still turning around the same things
are you still trying that way
are you still praying the same prayers
are you still waiting for that same day to come
climbing the same mountain
you’re not getting higher
you’re running after yourself
can’t let go
hiding in that place you don’t wanna be
you push happiness so far away
but it comes back
to give you all that you’ve given before
to love you the way that you do, like a mirror
look in the air ‘n catch that boomerang
can’t fall anywhere else but in your own
and make heaven
heaven out of hell now
make heaven
heaven out of hell now…
make heaven heaven out of hell now
make heaven
heaven out of hell now
are you still waiting
make heaven
heaven out of hell now
are you still praying
make heaven
heaven out of hell now
are you still losing
make heaven
heaven out of hell now
make heaven
heaven out of hell now
I wanna fly because
I dream
dream
dream

Gli ostacoli del cuore
23 nov
C’è un principio di magia
Fra gli ostacoli del cuore
Che si attacca volentieri
Fra una sera che non muore
E una notte da scartare
Come un pacco di natale
C’è un principio d’ironia
Nel tenere coccolati
I pensieri più segreti
E trovarli già svelati
E a parlare ero io
Sono io che li ho prestati
Quante cose che non sai di me
Quante cose che non puoi sapere
Quante cose da portare nel viaggio insieme
C’è un principio di allegria
Fra gli ostacoli del cuore
Che mi voglio meritare
Anche mentre guardo il mare
Mentre lascio naufragare
Un ridicolo pensiero
Quante cose che non sai di me
Quante cose che non puoi sapere
Quante cose da portare nel viaggio insieme
Quante cose che non sai di me
Quante cose devi meritare
Quante cose da buttare nel viaggio insieme
C’è un principio di energia
Che mi spinge a dondolare
Fra il mio dire ed il mio fare
E sentire fa rumore
Fa rumore camminare
Fra gli ostacoli del cuore
Quante cose che non sai di me
Quante cose che non puoi sapere
Quante cose da portare nel viaggio insieme
Quante cose che non sai di me
Quante cose che non vuoi sapere
Quante cose da buttare nel viaggio insieme

Qualcosa che non c’è
25 ott
Tutto questo tempo a chiedermi
Cos’è che non mi lascia in pace
Tutti questi anni a chiedermi
Se vado veramente bene
Così
Come sono
Così
Così un giorno
Ho scritto sul quaderno
Io farò sognare il mondo con la musica
Non molto tempo
Dopo quando mi bastava
Fare un salto per
Raggiungere la felicità
E la verità è che
Ho aspettato a lungo
Qualcosa che non c’è
Invece di guardare il sole sorgere
Questo è sempre stato un modo
Per fermare il tempo
E la velocità
I passi svelti della gente
La disattenzione
Le parole dette
Senza umiltà
Senza cuore così
Solo per far rumore
Ho aspettato a lungo
Qualcosa che non c’è
Invece di guardare
Il sole sorgere
E miracolosamente non
Ho smesso di sognare
E miracolosamente
Non riesco a non sperare
E se c’è un segreto
E’ fare tutto come
Se vedessi solo il sole
Un segreto è fare tutto
Come se
Fare tutto
Come se
Vedessi solo il sole
Vedessi solo il sole
Vedessi solo il sole
E non
Qualcosa che non c’è
