Acqua [English translation]

Water, I drink water and swallow it down.

Water, I drink water and swallow it down.

Water, I drink water and swallow it down.

Water, I drink water and swallow it down.

While I eat, as usual, paying my bill,

I drink this water and swallow it down.

It cleans me when I feel dirty inside.

It also washes my doubts and takes them away.

I'm thirsty and this company doesn't quench me anymore.

I drink this water and swallow it down.

Wine, I drink wine and swallow it down.

Wine, I drink wine and swallow it down.

Thus I forget, I forget you and forget myself.

I drink this wine and swallow it down.

I feel hotter, my mood changes too.

My sorrows swim too well and do not drown.

But they are red and I like them more like that.

I drink this wine and swallow it down.

Poison, I drink poison and swallow it down.

Poison, I drink poison and swallow it down.

My denial that I can no longer accept.

I drink my poison and swallow it down.

In this glass that I bring to my lips,

a gesture of love, the taste of the sea.

Because I can no longer look you in the eye.

I drink my poison and swallow it down.
