Polvere [English translation]

No, I don't want to run

the risk of being able to

lose you in the darkness

of my memories

without having said

before everything

absolutely everything

on my identity

that no one

at the bottom knows

What seemed like love

was only a habit

dressed

of candied fruits and blackberries

like raisin bred

during Christmas

you will not forget

that soon

it will end

But tell me

Tell me

Tell me, tell me

What more you want from me

If I don't have anything to defend

Of what there was and there still is

Only a little bit of

ashes remain(?)

Day after day

I've had the patience

To swallow everything

Before

Throwing up on you

My uncertainties

Are certainties by now

That I don't love you anymore

Beh, well at least

Now I know this

And now that I don't have

Anything left to fear anymore

Inside these walls

Loneliness

Occupies every corner

Of empty space

Just like dust

How dirty just like me

But tell me

Tell me

Tell me, tell me

What more you want from me

If there's only me to lose

And what there was and still is

I don't want to die among the ashes!

But tell me and

Tell me

And tell me, tell me

What strange thing there is

If I will have to ask you

To turn yourself into dust

And not into ashes

Because there will

Always be dust

Everywhere

Hidden beneath the sun

There always will be...

There always will be...

There's nowhere in the world

That isn't covered by dust

You feel it on your hands

On every part of your body

As if it were a second skin

While you consume yourself

Takes unexpected forms

When with a finger

Follows the outline

Of this universe

That makes you feel lost

In the infinite sky

Made up of dust

In the air that you breathe

[There is] dust

...the loneliness
