Look how wrinkled that skin is
he feels cold in his soul and you see
not even the tears he holds in can fall today
another day must pass
you'll see other's joys
and this irreconcilable time that's already playing against you
in the end, we finish on our feet at a window to see
melancholic spectators
of unlikely happiness
so many trips you wanted to take
and now you know it can't be
a pain you don't know well
he alone, will never abandon you, now, ever
you take refuge in your loneliness
while you grow more fragile
you no longer expect miracles, not anymore
you no longer talk to dolls
and don't touch those pills
that nun is so friendly
she has practice with souls
I would give my sight
to let you see what you want
the energy, the joy, to gift you with smiles
say yes, always yes
and you could fly with my wings
where you already know in your heart and without shame
make the sun shine again
so that winter goes away
cure your wounds and
give you teeth so you eat
and later see you smile
then watch you run again
now forget
there are those that'll forget to bring a flower
spend a Saturday
then silences
then silences...silences
in the gardens where nobody goes
uselessness is inhaled
there is respect and pure cleanliness
it's almost pure madness
it's so beautiful to embrace you here
defend you and fight for you
and dress you, and comb you like this, and whisper to you: don't give up, no
in the gardens where nobody goes
how much life? how much loneliness?
the ailments grow every day
we are nothing without fantasies
be merciful and embrace them
I beg you not to let them fall
fragile exiles, never deny them your affection
stars that can't be seen now
but give meaning to the heavens.
men cannot shine
if they don't shine for them too.
hands that now tremble
because the wind blows harder.
don't leave them now, no don't let death sneak up on them
we are selfish when instead
of helping we refuse.
forget now
there are those that'll forget to bring a flower
spend a Saturday
then silences
then silences...silences
