Sei andata via [English translation]

You went away, you went away

Like the tiredness in the first days of a summer by the sea

Like improvisation when you don't know what to do

Like the darkness of the night at seven in the morning

Like the lucidity of those who drink too much wine

Oh oh...

You went away, you went away

Like fever after being healed by antibiotics

Like the sincerity of the politics

Like wind behind a wall built specifically to defend yourself

Like reality for those who only want to delude themselves

I immensely loved

Your kind of lunatic speeches

And then suddenly...

You went away, you went away

Like air for those who got locked in jail

Like bitterness for those who wait

Like sleep when there's a thought coming back1

Like a permanent doubt after a confirmation

Oh, oh...

You went away, you went away

Like my identity when I'm in front of you

Like democracy when a king comes

Like silence when there's an active child

Like the humbleness of those who want to be a star

I immensely loved

Your huge lies

And then suddenly...

You went away, you went away

Like unconsciousness feeling a small pain

Like words said in a hurry, with a low voice in the noise

Like those details which we no longer remembered

Like sadness when you come back...

1. Remember that times when you can't sleep because you think inadvertently about something that you weren't supposed to?
