Il mio beneficio [English translation]

With the wisdom of hindsight I do not know whether I could regain

The enthusiam

I had for us and which was never returned

Because in brief, you are not so innocent

Neither sincere as I imagined you to be

I have wasted my time

My time, however

If it was worth it

Now I do not know

I am tending to say "no"

To you, who show nothing,

Nothing more than your silhouette

And you give nothing more

Tell me, in this story

What will be my benefit

If in every victory of yours

The sacrifice is single

It is nothing

It is nothing but mine for you

I have raised cathedrals to the sky

For you

Without ever

Not even once

That you would open a door for me

I pursued a future that is not yet

In my hands

And neither for you

At the end, where is the meaning?

Tell me, in this story

What will be my benefit

If in my memory

The sacrifice

Is single

It is nothing

It is nothing but mine

It is nothing because, for you

I do not have tears anymore

Tell me, in this story

What will be my benefit

If in every victory of yours

The sacrifice is single

With the wisdom of hindsight

I do not know whether I could regain

The enthusiam
