Acrobati [English translation]

From the window of this plane

The world looks like it's well-organized

You can glimpse the serious work of man

The clear, hard and tidy tract

Grids of chiseled fields

Of which you never perceive the dryness

And then reflecting waters, like diamonds

Which man gave nature as presents

Maybe to give it a structure

To give it a structure

The roads that impossibly chase each other

Tell the path of the peoples

They circumvent the most extraordinary obstacles

Or it's enough not to look at them closely

And we're in the midst of these fearless wings

We're nothing or we're everything

Letting ourselves be carried has been easy

But now going back down wouldn't seem right

We should resist

We should insist

And stay up here longer

If it were possible

Touching the clouds

Or living up high

Like two suspended

Acrobats

Don't look down, I don't know if the net is there

From up here the world seems distant, and yet

Yet it takes a moment, you know

To end up back in there

And I have to pay attention

Not to make a mistake again

Not to make a mistake

Not to make a mistake

And there's a very narrow road

I can't see anymore

If you keep holding on we'll risk falling

Falling or pretending we're making another acrobatics trick

A matter of balance

Balance is a philosophy

We should resist

We should insist

And stay up here longer

If it were possible

Touching the clouds

Or living up high

Like two suspended

Acrobats

Time

Doesn't go by

It slows down

It stops

The wind is

What counts

What sings

Disobeying gravity

I don't think it's a grave mistake

I don't think it's a grave mistake

You can't call it freedom

Until you risk falling

You risk falling

From above

There's always someone watching

Watching
