[English]

I've never wanted to give this news

but now it's here, over our heads

Only a few hours left

There's no more time

I repeat it in my head just to stay awake

Stay awake because the best is yet to fade away

Then dream of another way to get back up

Like rain falling without ever getting hurt

Where you came from, a hesitant voice says

I don’t know but we entered through an open wound

Scars tell us to stay among the weak

We speak the language of irreversible signs

Like yesterday, you weren't here

Unfortunate hereditary disorders, inheritors of bad luck

Because often those who judge you are the first to kill you

When throwing a stone means more than begging

They told us not everything that glitters is gold

But they said it because everything that glitters belongs to them

Now, I want to scream at the top of my lungs

LIFE SUCKS, THE VIEW IS BEAUTIFUL

It’s a beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

I get this feeling I can’t miss

You’re getting harder to resist

And maybe by the time I know

It’ll be too late to let you go

Who knew my heart could beat so quick

My life I gave away for this

Don’t care what anybody sees

I know I am doing this for me

I take those pieces of life I lived by mistake

And turn them into small-cut emotions

Who always lives, always, who lives confined in a bunker

Who lives under the light sees the tunnel’s start

With a heart of stone, you with the straw tail

Tired of hiding your head in anger

Eating dust, seasoning yourself with dirt

Us, seeking peace at the risk of causing war

With 24,000 kisses, Judas probably would have wiped us out

Feeling inadequate, feeling like one of many

A missed opportunity makes a man a thief of regrets

Birds born with a guilty soul

Report your life for deceptive happiness

And all of us raised inside dark rooms

Where every bastard lies and even the truth

It’s a beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

I get this feeling I can’t miss

You’re getting harder to resist

And maybe by the time I know

It’ll be too late to let you go

Who knew my heart could beat so quick

My life I gave away for this

Don’t care what anybody sees

I know I am doing this for me

I can be your butterfly

Love you so fiercely I could die

Well, I can make it worth it all

What a beautiful way to fall

It’s a beautiful disaster

Beautiful disaster

I get this feeling I can’t miss

You’re getting harder to resist

And maybe by the time I know

It’ll be too late to let you go

Who knew my heart could beat so quick

My life I gave away for this

Don’t care what anybody sees

I know I am doing this for me

Beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

[Italian]

Non avrei mai voluto dare questa notizia

ma adesso è qua è sulle nostre teste

mancano solo poche ore

non c'è più tempo

Me lo ripeto in testa giusto per non dormire

resta sveglio perché il meglio deve ancora svanire

per poi sognare un altro modo per potersi rialzare

come la pioggia che cade senza mai farsi male

da dove siete usciti dice una voce incerta

non lo so ma siamo entrati da una ferita aperta

le cicatrici dicono di starcene fra i deboli

parliamo col linguaggio dei segni indelebili

Come ieri tu non c’eri

disturbi ereditari sfortunati ereditieri

perché spesso chi ti giudica è il primo che poi ti trucida

quando lanciare un sasso vale più di una supplica

ci hanno detto non è tutto ora ciò che luccica

ma l’hanno detto perché è tutto loro ciò che luccica

ora, voglio gridare fortissimo

LA VITA FA SCHIFO IL PANORAMA E' BELLISSIMO

It’s a beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

I get this feeling I can’t miss

you’re getting harder to resist

and maybe by the time I know

it’ll be too late to let you go

who knew my heart could beat so quick

my life I gave away for this

don’t care what anybody sees

I know I am doing this for me

Prendo quei pezzi di vita che ho vissuto per sbaglio

e li cambio in emozioni di piccolo taglio

chi vive sempre e comunque chi vive chiuso in un bunker

chi vive sotto la luce vede l’inizio del tunnel

con il cuore di pietra tu con la coda di paglia

stanchi di nascondere la testa sotto la rabbia

mangiare la polvere condirsi la terra

noi che cerchiamo la pace a costo di farvi la guerra

Con 24 mila baci probabilmente Giuda ci avrebbe sterminati

sentirsi inadeguati sentirsi uno dei tanti

un’occasione persa fa l’uomo ladro di rimpianti

rapaci nati con l’animo colpevole

denuncia la tua vita per felicità ingannevole

e a tutti noi cresciuti dentro camere oscure

dove ogni stronzo mente e la verità pure

It’s a beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

I get this feeling I can’t miss

you’re getting harder to resist

and maybe by the time I know

it’ll be too late to let you go

who knew my heart could beat so quick

my life I gave away for this

don’t care what anybody sees

I know I am doing this for me

I can be your butterfly

love you so hard that I could die

well, I can make it worth it all

what a beautiful way to fall

It’s a beautiful disaster

beautiful disaster

I get this feeling I can’t miss

you’re getting harder to resist

and maybe by the time I know

it’ll be too late to let you go

who knew my heart could beat so quick

my life I gave away for this

don’t care what anybody sees

I know I am doing this for me

Beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster

It’s a beautiful disaster
