Invece no [English translation]

Perhaps it was enough to breathe

just to breathe a little

until I heal every beat of my heart

and stop looking for the right moment to go away (don´t go away)

because this cannot be a habit

a December without you

the one who stays here hopes for the impossible

But no

there isn´t enough time to explain

to ask if I gave you love

I´m here and I would have something to say still (still)

Why do the most important things break into pieces between the teeth

those words we never use

and I dive into my pain to make them come out

to bring them here, one by one

you can feel them, they weigh and stay on us forever

and if you aren´t here, I cannot repeat them

I don´t manage to say them anymore

But no

it´s raining memories

and I would do anything but to admit that it´s too late

how much I wish I could speak again (again)

But no

I don´t have enough time to explain

I also had something to hope for ahead of me

something to finish together with you

Perhaps it is enough for me to breathe

just to breathe a little

maybe it´s too late or maybe not
