Nulla
Gli angeli vennero a cercarla
La trovarono al mio fianco,
lì dove le sue ali l'avevano guidata.
Gli angeli vennero per portarla via.
Aveva lasciato la loro casa,
il loro giorno più chiaro
ed era venuta ad abitare presso di me.
Mi amava perché l'amore
ama solo le cose imperfette.
Gli angeli vennero dall'alto
e la portarono via da me.
Se la portarono via per sempre
tra le ali luminose.
É vero che era la loro sorella
e così vicina a Dio come loro.
Ma mi amava perché
il mio cuore non aveva una sorella.
Se la portarono via,
ed è tutto quel che accadde.
[Fernando Pessoa - Quattro lamenti]
Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There’s always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it’s hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I’ll find some peace tonight
In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There’s vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don’t make no difference
Escaping one last time
It’s easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
