La Verità

You have noticed yes
That you leave to climb the mountains
And then you stop at the first restaurant
And you don't think about it anymore

You have noticed yes
That all this calculated risk
Takes away the taste even of chocolate
And it's not enough for you

But you have understood that it's useless
To show yourself smiling
In the eyes of people
And that pain serves
Just as happiness serves

You have noticed yes
That you spend the whole day drawing
That little boat still in the middle of the sea
And you never jump
You have noticed no
That you no longer have the balls to risk
To become what you want
And you don't believe it anymore

But you have understood that it's useless
To seem intelligent
In the eyes of people
And that dying serves
Also to be reborn

The truth
Is that you are afraid
Of the idea of disappearing
The idea that everything you cling to
Sooner or later will have to end
The truth
Is that you don't want to change
That you can't give up those four, five things
That you don't even believe in anymore

The truth
Is that you are afraid
Of the idea of disappearing
The idea that everything you cling to
Sooner or later will have to die
The truth
Is that you don't want to change
That you can't give up those four, five things
That you don't even believe in anymore
