– when I see you

noja ma tanta ce me dae noja

quantu cuntanu tuttu sapenu quiddhu ca dicenu vulìa sacciu

ci è ca sente ci tutti parlanu ma quante parole

me pare a mie ca moi nu te serve chiui nde capisci de quiddhu ca parli

ce bulìa cu la spiccianu a quai su tutti professori moi sine

de poesia de fotografia musica puru de politica e religione

l’importante è cu ne dici tante e poi nu c’è mai fine

ca mai sia de pedagogia cinema puru de botanica e medicina

io nu sacciu comu aggiu fare me sta dole la capu

nu nci la fazzu chiui

ma quannu te visciu ncignu a respirare

tuttu lucisce a quai de paru a tie

quannu te visciu ncignu a respirare

ogghiu me perdu d’intra all’occhi toi

tie ca giudichi pretechi cunti quiddhu ca facenu tutti quanti

nu la chianti sta me tormenti dicu ma t’hai uardata

nu tegnu pace ca nu su capace cu fazzu la parte cu ci nu me piace

mo chiudi la porta stuta la luce me sta dole la capu

nu nu nci la fazzu chiui

ma quannu te visciu ncignu a respirare

tuttu lucisce a quai de paru a tie

quannu te visciu ncignu a respirare

ogghiu me perdu d’intra all’occhi toi

it pisses me off so much

they talk so much they know about everything

I’d like to know who’s listening if everyone talks, so many words

It seems to me that today you don’t need anymore to understand what you are talking about

I wish they stopped here they are all professors now, yes…

of poetry, photography, music also politics and religion

the important thing is to say a lot, and there is no end to it

pedagogy, cinema, also botany and medicine

I don’t know what can I do my head is exploding

I can’t take it anymore

but when I see you I start breathing

everything lights up here along with you

when I see you I start breathing

I wanna get lost in your eyes

you who judge, preach, talk about what everyone does

stop it, you’re tormenting me, I mean, have you looked at yourself?

I’ve got no peace cause I can’t pretend with somebody I don’t like

now shut the door, turn off the lights my head is exploding

I can’t take it anymore

but when I see you I start breathing

everything lights up here along with you

when I see you I start breathing

I wanna get lost in your eyes
