Gente distratta [English translation]

What remains of the past

that can you not swallow?

The sea today

it is a blue oil

but here no one has forgiven you

when you've gone from home

then you have finished watching the sky

loving

dreaming

growing up

loving

dreaming

growing up

running

I catch you

Distracted people who come and go ...
