Taide [English translation]

She looks at herself in the mirror every night, inside a glass

She laughs with her friends while she grabs a drink

Then she looks at herself in the mirror again and she can’t love herself

She, who makes love, maybe a bit for pleasure, a bit for passion or a bit to enjoy it

She ran so fast over disappointment

Among the sound of the thunder and she learned how to fall

Like tears that pour on a distracted life

Of who didn’t make it,

Of who lost their face

She wakes up early to escape from the bed

She, who doesn’t give you affection, she, who doesn’t even hug you

She closes the door without making noise

And she’s coming down the stairs holding her coat

Because the punches of the winter tear you apart on the ring

Like in a dream, like on a movie

Thais is now tired of feeling like this

Thais doesn’t have the strength to escape from here anymore

Because modern men are sons of nothing

They’re pieces of meat that walk alone

I, who looked for you among all the people

You, who fly far away, you that don’t comfort me

You that come back home late when it’s already dark outside

Then you cook your lunch as if it were a dinner

You watch your favorite tv series if you smoke

Then you imagine you’re another girl inside flowing clouds

Like the hate you smell, when you reject yourself a bit

You look for peace in the void and the pills in the beauty

Now that the past knocks hard on the wood

Even if you don’t open he comes back to visit you

Thais killed the prince and is alone in the kingdom

Where you control your heart, Thais doesn’t know how to love anymore

Sorry, I’ve been far away, if I didn’t tell you “I love you” it was just a lie

You were holding my hand, I was thinking that it was all my fault after all

A shadow echoes

It has the shape of a woman

The wave of the shame

Then you told me “you know, I have to go” and you ran away

Sorry, I’ve been far away, if I didn’t tell you “I love you” it was just a lie

You were holding my hand, I was thinking that it was all my fault after all

A shadow echoes

It has the shape of a woman

The wave of the shame

Then you told me “you know, I have to go” and you ran away

It’s pouring rain in her empty eyes

This night is passing by slow

This rain over here doesn’t extinguish the fires

It wets the wrinkles on the sides of her dull smile

Meanwhile Thais enchants with her eyes

She looks at how much longer, how much time is left

She looks, tired, while the warm dawn sings

She switches leg while she comforts herself

She’s out every night, alone in every night, in every purple night

When she finishes she goes back home by taxi

When she takes off her heels and brushes her hair

In the mirror her heart’s an open hole

And it’s pitch dark inside, she sinks every hour

She throws everything inside an inner sea

She cries down quietly if a bubble emerges

Certain streets, they feel unknown to her

How’s it going? She says “Not bad”

Thais lies badly while she goes down the stairs

She rings the door in a floor downtown

It’s the second bolgia of the eighth circle and

Today Thais saw a man

That was running along the street

He was reaching a lonely girl and a sound

Thais watches closely while she calls him

Everything around them becomes a background

Her trotting heart floods and renders their kisses

She, who asks for double to kiss

What she would give for a free kiss

Sorry, I’ve been far away, if I didn’t tell you “I love you” it was just a lie

You were holding my hand, I was thinking that it was all my fault after all

A shadow echoes

It has the shape of a woman

The wave of the shame

Then you told me “you know, I have to go” and you ran away

Sorry, I’ve been far away, if I didn’t tell you “I love you” it was just a lie

You were holding my hand, I was thinking that it was all my fault after all

A shadow echoes

It has the shape of a woman

The wave of the shame

Then you told me “you know, I have to go” and you ran away
