Un Segundo De Paz

Eros Ramazzotti's 'Un Segundo De Paz' is a poignant reflection on the desire for a moment of peace amidst the chaos of everyday life. The song begins with the artist expressing a need for solitude and a rejection of deceitful company. He yearns for an environment where truth prevails and where he can distance himself from the dangers and pretenses of the outside world.

The chorus of the song captures the essence of Ramazzotti's longing for a brief respite, a moment to breathe in the purity of peace and to focus on the love of those closest to him, especially the person he is addressing. The imagery of dreams landing and folding their wings suggests a pause from the constant need to strive and achieve, highlighting a desire for stillness and contentment in the present moment.

Ramazzotti also paints a vivid picture of the city as a bustling pinball machine, full of noise and distraction. He contrasts this with his wish to experience peace without the metaphorical wars, the bombardment of images, and the toxic spread of information that characterizes modern life. The song concludes with a sense of fleetingness, acknowledging the rarity of such peaceful moments and expressing a wish that they could become the norm rather than the exception.
