Bianco, nero e grigio [English translation]

[Verse 1]

White, black and grey

There's no midpoint nor an extremity

We're another room for rent

Straight back, closed lips

[Prechorus]

I know, I had to tell you a few things 1

but now they're one thousand

A complicated conversation

Winter for the leaves

It's not a sum nor a subtraction

of words and lights

We're not alike

We're not friends

[Chorus]

I feel the steps of my heart in motion

Supreme, eternal and insatiable

yet I wasn't looking for you

Try to keep in touch inside

the sea between the ceiling and the floor

the voice that breaks me like wind

yet I wasn't looking for you

[Verse 2]

White, black and grey

The truth is shy

Like cold snow, like glass,

synthetic, plastic

[Prechorus]

I know, I had to tell you a few things

but now they're one thousand

A complicated conversation

Winter for the leaves

It's not a sum nor a subtraction

of words and lights

We're not alike

We're not friends

[Chorus]

I feel the steps of my heart in motion

Supreme, eternal and insatiable

yet I wasn't looking for you

Try to keep in touch inside

the sea between the ceiling and the floor

the voice that breaks me like wind

yet I wasn't looking for you

[Bridge]

We're a sum and a subtraction

of words and lights

We're not alike

We're not friends

[Chorus]

I feel the steps of my heart in motion

Supreme, eternal and insatiable

yet I wasn't looking for you

Try to keep in touch inside

the sea between the ceiling and the floor

the voice that breaks me like wind

yet I wasn't looking for you
