L'essenziale [English translation]

the heroes state

if the game gets hard, you have to play it

lucky them

if they confuse the offences with the good thing.

It also happens to us

to fight and then strive for peace

and in my silence

I take all your sorrow away

to appreciate everything that I couldn't choose

While the world breaks into pieces

I compose new places and desires which

also belongs to you

from the beginning you are for me

the essential thing

I won't accept

another error in valuation

love is capable of

hiding itself behind friendly words

which I have spoken before

they became empty and stupid

While the world breaks into pieces

I compose new places and desires which

also belongs to you

from the beginning you are for me

while the world breaks into pieces

I take distance from the excesses

and from the bad habits

I will return to the origins

I return to you, who is for me

the essential thing

love doesn't follow the logic

it takes away your breath and your thirst

while the world breaks into pieces

I compose new places and desires which

also belongs to you

while the world breaks into pieces

I take distance of the excesses

and from the bad habits

I will return to the origins

I return to you, who is for me

the essential thing
