Every day I wake up and I think of all the people I know I imagine they didn't exist, they weren’t real How would my life change? All my memories would be just an eyewash What would I see in my pictures? Me, hugging... nothing Me, laughing at a birthday party with no guests Me, myself and me again! Drinking on my own, toasting to nobody, or just to my... Soccer games in the playground under the Summer sun They would always have ended in my favour, with no fouls and penalty kicks And the last one to get injured would have been me, laying on the floor, for hours With no outstretched hands helping me get up again My life without you is not difficult to imagine Waking up early in the morning with no one to talk to Having fights with a wall that will tell me I am right all the time Is it better to be alone or in bad company? Just when I fall to the ground powerlessly, I will be able to answer

Friday, such a perfect day for me To try to think about nothing and no one Lucid and thoughtless, quite playful Fairly confused I can’t explain the reason For finding me (finding me alone) Lying exausthed on the sofa I can’t plan anything My strength are leaving me alone Lying exausthed on the sofa Tonight, tonight is not the brightest of the nights Completely unable to lose control of my mind I’m trying to find the way to drop the reins By taking advantage of this unconscious state of mind (of this unconscious state of mind) Lying exausthed on the sofa I can’t plan anything Lying exausthed on the sofa Tonight, tonight is the brightest of the nights Completely unable to lose control of my mind I’m trying to find the way to drop the reins By taking advantage of this unconscious state of mind (of this unconscious state of mind) Lying exausthed on the sofa I don’t want to plan anything Tonight, tonight, the most thoughtful of my friday nights

While I’m on flight I’m never sure that My parachute will open But tell me now If you never fall How would you teach me to fall down I live my life surviving without no convinctions Taking it day by day with the cheeck to be kept afloat Cause everytime I reappear Cause everytime I can appeare again While you never leave the dry land While you’re hitting bottom I'm ready now for any kind of change Take me away and put me to the test I'm ready now to lose again and again, again and again I’m ready now I resolutely defend my right to be different from the rest Look into your roots what is ruining your present Your strictness can’t help you take everything you need Walk on my streets with pride what will you do When you lose everything What are your convinctions going going to be used for? I am ready now for any kind of change I am ready now to lose again and again, again and again Cause everytime I reappear Cause everytime I can appeare again While you never leave the dry land While you’re hitting bottom
