for the things that we don't say
and people we're not able to keep by our side
finding relief in the absence
feeling safe in the distances
after all these months
will we find a solution?
you said it again
and nobody heard it

"shut up. i can't smell the chestnuts anymore"
he said sobbing
then he was taking the bus
and she was going to work
they would never see each other again

"Where do I get my ideas from? You might as well have asked that of Beethoven.
He was goofing around in Germany like everybody else, and all of a sudden this stuff came gushing out of him.
It was music.
I was goofing around like everybody else in Indiana, and all of a sudden stuff came gushing out.
It was disgust with civilization."
-K. Vonnegut

i am not complaining
we’re all fine, right?
future is bright, the job is ok
i am expecting another good day
opening the windows, the fresh air of milan
it’s months we’re planning the holidays
for our favourite week
and we’re happy
but i bite the pillow in the morning
i’ve never said this was enough for me
i hope i never will

it seems to me that black and white is to photography
what oxymorons are to writing lyrics
reading nietzsche is the new wearing vans
we're taking ourselves too seriously, and that's fucking bad

cominciare credendo che crollerai,
con cautela,
crea comode certezze.
centelliniamo così cataclismi
che comprometterebbero ciò che crediamo conoscere.
confondiamo continuamente ciò che conforta
con ciò che conta, che codardi.
cerchiamoci, conosciamoci, confrontiamoci cavolo.
compromettersi clamorosamente
credo costituisca ciò che chiamiamo crescere

the only thing worse than nostalgia
is nostalgia for a time you didn't really like
i ran six kilometres a day all last week
and i finally got it
formidables are the years that have passed

Silences
01:16
|

sometimes they're harder to break than promises
sometimes they're all i've got
huge and oppressing
silences
carrying a sense of guilt
of feeling inadequate
keeping me from being
who i sometimes like to think i am
if i only could not just sit and smile
i don't like those silences
i don't like oysters, either.

the last time we met
we went to the park
but i couldn't focus on anything else
last time we met
i was too concerned
about the implications
of not giving a fuck
worrying about worrying too much
i'm worryied that won't do any good
waking up it's been hard enough these days
waving goodbye would just be too much

avessi avuto altre amicizie
avrei amato abbastanza averti accanto?
accumulavo aspettative, aneliti, attimi. avido.
assaporo apprensione, asprezza, accuse. amaro.
abbracciami adesso.
abbiamo aspettato abbastanza
