Transparente

Transparent
Today I'm a little smaller than usual
Everything is too big for me, the world is too big for me
I've invested my worth and like Alice, I split in two
Then fear expands, it's a giant, and it hides me
I know my weakness
And it's not news
Forgive my need
To know that you'll always be here
And that you'll make me trust myself
In my capital there's no noise or signs, anywhere
There's no one left, there's no one
I need to scream at the top of my lungs, check the action-reaction principle
And there's only air, and I have no air
The slightest breath of wind knocks me down
And there's no one to rebuild me
I shut myself off and wait for someone to sink me
I prepare my own grave
Silently, in case I bother
Without warning anyone
Waiting for someone to save me
I know I speak fast and you almost don't understand, and you lose me
I'm a bundle of insecurities that can't stand, and they surface
I'm about to fall
Come and tell me I'm different, not indifferent
Fill me with color
And tell me I'm not see-through
