346 - CCCXLVI

c'è qualcuno che parla, ha un accento americano, si meraviglia della possibilità di avere solo una persona che ti ami..e da amare. Gli errori possono essere fatti o non fatti, è tutta questione di clima. Voglio dire, dipende da quanto caldo fa nel cuore certe volte. Ed è allora, quando non puoi evitare di sbagliare, che ti chiedi..si, ti meravigli delle probabilità che c'erano, quel giorno in cui promettevi come se nessuno ti stesse guardando.

"sarò sempre quella sbagliata, un'ape da miele, buona a nulla, scapperò via e starò meglio solo quando tutte le mie cellule staranno sciogliendosi"

ma le uniche cellule che ti rimangono, che mi rimangono, sono quelle sensibili al dolore..potrebbe essere in qualche modo utile far finta che la mia gabbia toracica sia vuota?

vedi tutte le cose giuste della mia vita fanno rima in qualche modo, ed è bello da vedere..voglio dire, almeno i versi e le rime si baciano..come sempre, e sempre lo faranno.

american accent, somebody’s talking
marveling of the possibility
of having only one to love you
and for you to love

mistakes can be made and not made
it’s all about the weather
it’s all about how warm it gets
into your heart sometimes

and it’s then, it’s then you wonder
you marvel of the chances
there were, the day you promised
as if no one was looking at you

yes I’ll always be the wrong one
bee for honey, good for nothing,
I’ll escape and I’ll be better
when of all my cells are melting.

and the only cells still standing
are the ones who sense this sorrow
is it any good pretending
that my chest is simply hollow?

all the right things of my life
somehow rhyme, and it’s good to see
that at least these verses kiss
always have, always will.

Come le campane della chiesa madre..

..ritorno a pubblicare dopo un lasso di tempo vergognoso anche per me. Chiedo venia, e la chiederò finchè non sarà venia in persona a venirsi a scusare. Amen.
Niente italiano, si torna alle origini. English please.




BONES (OneDay)

and then I surfaced, wretched and yearning
I don't know how could you thus affect me
and my little secrets (wrecking hopes)
the strength in my bones, the heat of today
I'm doing it again, again

but still we walk on
looking for each other
yes still we walk on
cause we both know
somehow we'll find each other

at last I surfaced to a sky that's a dead end
I don't know how to protect you anymore
maybe I never have, never
the sentimental side has gone, it's one day
it's someone else's story

but still we walk on
looking for each other
yes still we walk on
cause we both know
somehow we'll find
each other

and then I surfaced as a take&toss hope
as any of my own favourite songs
as an exclusive truth
that everybody knew, long before I spoke
long before I knew myself

RADIO CITY DELPHI

I'm back to when I was a priestess
and you were my ritual
I still expect to see you soon
climbing the stairs of this altar
and I'm back to when you were
the last thing I could fall in love with
so what on earth happened to me?

this is radio city delphi
we bring you the best news
from all around the country
of Delusion
this last hallucination
I was not prepared for
blows in my mind
like the wind in a cave
end of the broadcast

I see the temples in my own memory
stories of immortal melodies
and I always dream of writing one for you
now it feels like you never existed
neither in this life or on Sybil's leaves
I'm back to when I was a priestess
a sacred nonentity.

this is radio city delphi
we bring you the best news
from all around the country
of Delusion
this last hallucination
I was not prepared for
blows in my mind
like the wind in a cave
end of the broadcast

BOOK O'LO

I love this place, I love its freezing wind
for all the times it brought your scent to me
it's been a while since something changed for real
the shades and shapes of anything concealed.
but if someone should send for me, I'm not here
I'm right around the corner, predestinated.
be quiet, your heart is waiting for the starter's sign
aren't we all? I'm sure I was.

faster, an unpredictable music's playing for me
did you lose my heart for a charm, on a dare?
among all monsters, I'm still the worst
a creature made of desire and remorse
I love this place, its funtains and its wonders
for all the times they made me look less obvious
sorrounded by the beauty of a soundtrack
come on, come dive with me into this madness.

**************

THE CHAMBER (lilacs)

you sit still into the last thought of yesterday
into the first of today, while everyone is running
towards another impossible sunset
I'm here instead trying to figure out what
is essential in the end and what is not

the moon's just let some light in through the window
across this chamber full of shadows
I picture myself tryina contemplate
your kind of perfection
incapable of speaking again, it feels like
it's been centuries since my heart last beat.

overcome by years of faith in their god
they taught me at least how to hope
for something eternal to come
though it won't be forgiveness, it won't be bliss
hope it'll be you

*************

OUTRAGEOUS

this is the tropic of unicorn
careful what you ask for
cos wishes here may turn into curses
run away, don't let your heart
sing along with the mermaids
it's you I want, love me your way
I won't say no anymore, at least for today
I ask for nothing, I pray no god
my heathen eyes have seen enough
and this is outrageous

there are worn out places
like this around the universe
where because of Beauty
our miseducated souls meet
I see no meaning for such meeting,
or maybe I'd do, if you were here
to change the rules of the skies
with me, at last, with me.
it's you I want, love me your way
I won't say no anymore, at least for today
I ask for nothing, I pray no god
my heathen eyes have seen enough
and this is outrageous
