Non so dove i gabbiani abbiano il nido, ove trovino pace. Io son come loro, in perpetuo volo. La vita la sfioro com’essi l’acqua ad acciuffare il cibo e come forse anch’essi amo la quiete, la gran quiete marina, ma il mio destino è vivere balenando in burrasca. (V. Cardarelli)

Plainsong

the sound of the morning

"I think it's dark and it looks like rain"
You said
"And the wind is blowing like it's the end of the world"
You said
"And it's so cold
It's like the cold if you were dead"
And then you smiled
For a second

"I think I'm old and I'm feeling pain"
You said
"And it's all running out like it's the end of the world"
You said
"And it's so cold it's like the cold if you were dead"
And then you smiled
For a second

Sometimes you make me feel
Like I'm living at the edge of the world
Like I'm living at the edge of the world
"It's just the way I smile"
You said

- the cure -
