Due galassie [English translation]

I have fifteen galaxies into a drawer

Neatly folded between the socks and a mirror

Between all the crumpled dreams and the follies

Of luggages, in memories and lies

Of milk tears in a cup

With some perfect strangers from a square

of the desire of leaving for coming back

and your smell of sunscreen

I saw you in a movie of which I do not know the name anymore

I lost you in an ocean of ambition

I read you in a book from primary school

That now I wouldn't even know how to learn anymore

I wish I had the courage to surrender

And to disarm myself to protect you

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry

I don't want roses for my birthday

I don't want to overthink

All the same days

Sorry, sorry, I'm so sorry

You talk to me and you tell me that I can't hear you

I put your heart in the recorder

I have sixteen galaxies inside my chest

that I stare at the ceiling when I'm in bed

that I found in a concert ticket

and that I lost right in the airport

In the one where you didn't come and pick me up

Where I thought it'd been better to not even believe in it

I realised I don't know what indigo is

And I thought that I love you

Without even telling you

Without even telling you

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry

I don't want roses for my birthday

I don't want to overthink

All the same days

Sorry, sorry, I'm so sorry

You talk to me and you tell me that I can't hear you

I put your heart in the recorder

I have this heart especially in one place

and yours that's a playing speaker when it hugs me

and my pulse is irregular, undefined BPM

From the other rhythm and backbeat that I've never heard

Right in this mess it's where stars come from

Freckles like costellations on the skin

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry

I don't want roses for my birthday

I don't want to overthink

All the same days

Sorry, sorry, I'm so sorry

You talk to me and you tell me that I can't hear you

I put your heart in the recorder

I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry

I don't want roses for my birthday

I don't want to overthink

All the same days

Sorry, sorry, I'm so sorry

You talk to me and you tell me that I can't hear you

I put your heart in the recorder
