Spostato di un secondo [English translation]

I found myself falling at five years old

And I discovered that it hurts to fall

In the first slap I understood crying

And that if it isn't strictly vital, you shouldn't steal

I discovered that love is an art to understand

And I discovered it like this, simply loving

That everything changes while you're living it

And that some things align themselves with effort

Align themselves with effort

Another time back and finding myself naked

And again finding the desire to fill every void

And to do everything again, to do everything again

Again

A moment later

And now I would like to know

How the world would be

If everything were

Moved by a second

Now I would see you

Choosing to stay

And instead you leave

And I, I let you go

I who have not made peace with nicotine

I would like to go back there to not even try it

To see from on high how a voice becomes

If you don't taint it with thirty years of poison

I who have always taken consideration

And if you are changed it's from your actions and from the waves of the sea

Then a stranger plays a song

And leaves again from his name to restart

And now I would like to know

How the world would be

If everything were

Moved by a second

Now I would see you

Choosing to stay

And instead you leave

And I, I let you go

And I would go back to the top

In the same room

To do everything again

A meter away

To fall down again

In the same moments

In the same places

Maybe a bit more ahead

As if it were another wind

A second occasion

A far-off glance

The other side of the same emotion

To do everything again

A moment later

And now I would like to know

How the world would be

If everything were

Moved by a second

Now I would see you

Choosing to stay

And instead you leave

And I, I let you go

(I found myself falling this morning

And it still shocks me that it hurts to fall)

I let you go

(Another slap and I understood crying

Another slap and I understood crying)

I let you go

(I found myself falling this morning

And it still shocks me that it hurts to fall)

I let you go

(Another slap and I understood crying

And if it's not strictly vital, we won't give up on loving)
