Ha tremato la terra 00:03
Dopo ogni tuo passo 00:06
Ti aspettavo proprio dietro la porta 00:08
E' così che hai imparato il coraggio 00:13
È così che hai imparato da me 00:16
Le parole che hai detto 00:21

[English]
The earth trembled
After every step you took
I was waiting right behind the door
That's how you learned courage
That's how you learned from me
The words you said
Make the air laugh
While the entire sky was bending
That's how I learned to hate you
That's how I learned from you
Everything was sleeping
Time drags on
As if it were a giant
Nature is stubborn
As if my roar
Gets lost
Unheard among the people
Heaven doesn’t exist
Only my arms do
In this small world of today
In this small world
An endless world
Heaven doesn’t exist
We left it to everyone else
All I need is this small world today
All I need is this small world
An endless world
In life, I’ve understood what I want
And who I am
Everyone needs a lesson
That’s how I learned to love myself
That’s how I learned from me
Nature challenges me
Time drags on
As if it were a giant
Like many people do
As if my roar
Gets lost
Unheard among the people
...
Heaven doesn’t exist
Only my arms do
In this small world of today
In this small world
An endless world
Heaven doesn’t exist
We left it to everyone else
All I need is this small world today
All I need is this small world
An endless world
The earth trembled
After every step of mine
Why does the earth tremble
Even if I just think
That I lost my heart
I threw it in a ditch
And now I want it for you
...
Heaven doesn’t exist
We left it to everyone else
All I need is this small world today
All I need is this small world
An endless world
...
