Avenida Silencio Songtext
von Paolo Benvegnù

Avenida Silencio
Come un quadro irreale
Sole, sciogli l′asfalto

Avenida Silencio
Non c'è niente da fare
Dissetare l′attesa
Nell'attesa bruciare

Avenida Silencio
Nei tuoi occhi e nei miei
Di risveglio e di luce
Stai perdendo la voce

Save our souls
Please save us
Please save our souls
Please save our souls
Please save our souls


Qu'est-ce que tu as dit
Marie, Marie
Il n′est pas important
Et recommence
Qu′est-ce que tu as dit, Marie
Il n'est pas important

You want to see, maybe
Is terrifying
The shade of light
You want to see, maybe
The shade of light

Avenida Silencio
Le città come un branco
Roma è morta in un giorno
Shanghai brucerà

Avenida Silencio
Come trama di un canto
Le tue stesse parole
L′impotenza e l'altrove

Save our souls
Please save us
Save our souls
Please save our...


You want to see, maybe
Is terrifying
The shade of light
You want to see, maybe
The shade of light

Qu′est-ce que tu as dit, Marie
Il n'est pas important
Et recommence
Qu′est-ce que tu as dit, Marie

You want to see, maybe
It's terrifying
The shade of light
You want to see, maybe
The shade of light

One-hundred-eighty-three
That's the number of people I′m responsible for killing
Not the number of people I′ve killed
The number I'm responsible for
That′s the difference

You are the one giving the orders
You are the one making the decisions
You have to choose who lives, who dies
You are responsible
So you become the hand of God

One-hundred-eighty-three
I know all of the names
I know how old they were
If they had children
If they would be missed

One-hundred-eighty-three
I never made a decision lightly
I always suffered a bit
With each one resposibility of that
The gravity of that
The weight of it
It marks me, it stains me
It never leaves me
I'm responsible

Being the hand of God
Is already the worst punishment in the world
And there is incidentally a point
If there are no more white hats
If the death is always stacked
And if everyone you love is a monster
There is, in fact, someone worth saving

Who?
Everyone!
Everyone is worth saving
Even the monsters, even the deamons
Everyone is worth saving
In the face of darkness
You drag everyone into the light
That is the point
At least I like to think that
Is the point of you

Am I finished?
Being dead now
Are we done?
