Lontano da qui [English translation]

I've seen faces turn pale

Not knowing what to say

They're people inside an illusion

Full of lights and things to buy

Full of loveless kisses

Given to see what's there, just a bit farther

A bit farther, a bit farther, a bit farther

A bit farther, a bit farther, a bit farther

Far away from here, from here, from here, from here

From here, from here, from here, from here

I've seen eyes filled with tears1

Not knowing how to see

They closed2 in confusion

So as to not feel the weight of things

Perhaps dreaming of flying

In the silence just a bit farther

Far away from here, from here, from here, from here

From here, from here, from here, from here

Far away from here, from here, from here,

It's a strange law that defeats us

It's funny, the sword that penetrates us

It looks so close but so unreachable

It's so perfect that beauty escapes [from it]

Like the peace that spreads

Like the life it overwhelms

Like the moon that rises from the wave

I've seen mouths silenced

From which truth escapes

And then they smile in front of a flower

Slowly opening themselves for a great love

And again they open to sing of the pain

Just a bit farther

Far away from here, from here, from here, from here

From here, from here, from here, from here

Far away from here, from here, from here, from here

From here, from here, from here, from here
