Dobbiamo fare luce [English translation]

The airplane is running late—

it lands when it lands.

I will phone you as soon as possible.

I so know how that ends—

you do not answer—

and you do not answer—

you do not answer.

Then I take a taxi—

and I don't even know where I'm going.

I think about it

and here I phone you—

I do not answer—

and I do not answer—

I do not answer.

It is a bit like kindergarten.

At one point, they told us,

outside of kindergarten,

we must set an example.

What are we on?

Maybe we are still on trial—

we must set an example—

just in case ever.

Meanwhile, look at how it rains

I end up at a hotel—

I don't even unpack my suitcase.

I pick up your message—

you accuse me of something—

and I do not answer—

I do not answer—

I do not answer.

Since I remember

our promises to make progress

and to foster trust,

you should do the math—

and you do not answer—

you do not answer—

you do not answer.

It's worse than kindergarten—

but maybe there is nothing

that it is better than kindergarten.

We must set an example.

What are we on?

Maybe we are still on trial—

we must set an example—

just in case ever.

Meanwhile, look at how it rains

It is too tiring

and what I am thinking, I write to you—

and then I still find myself playing with you in the basement

and you just ask me

what is tiring?

And I do not answer.

We must set an example.

What are we on?

Maybe we are still on trial—

we must set an example—

just in case ever.
