En E Xanax
Samuele Bersani
In Xanax
In Xanax they didn't know each other
Before a common
Panic attack and immediately
They spun in unison.
She the daughter of an American
Transplanted to Rome
And he a son of a bitch
Now unemployed.
In Xanax they calmed down
With their tongues tasting
Bitter medicine
And cloves.
She on the street and he stole books
From the library
And then read them to her
Sitting on a hood.
If you don't get scared by my fears,
One day when you tell me yours
We will find a way to remove them.
Together
We can fight like giants against every pain
And you can count on me
For a revolution.
You have the soul
I wish I had.
In Xanax when they fought
They could have stopped even the traffic in New York,
Killing each other over the phone.
She calmed down, he found her
Naked on the chair
And then they overlapped
Their heartbeats.
If you don't get scared by my fears,
One day when you tell me yours
We will find a way to remove them.
Together
We can fight like giants against every pain
And you can count on me
For a revolution.
You have the soul
I wish I had.
In Xanax they anesthetized themselves
With their tongues tasting like mint and marijuana
And then they fell asleep.
And then they fell asleep,
And then they fell asleep,
And then they fell asleep.
