Taranta
Ludovico Einaudi
Taranta
I hold a torment inside my chest
I hold a torment inside my chest
That consumes me and doesn't
That consumes me and doesn't
That consumes me and never stops
The earth trembles under my feet
The earth trembles under my feet
There's no end to
There's no end to
There's no end to my suffering
What I eat has no flavor
What I eat has no flavor
For me there's no more light
For me there's no more light
For me there's no more light or color
People know how to heal you
People know how to heal you
Your pain is
Your pain is
Your pain is called taranta
And even though times have changed
And even though times have changed
There's something that can be felt
There's something that can be felt
There's something that can be felt in my pain
And what the water brings to heal me
And what the water brings to heal me
I ask for grace
I ask for grace
I ask for grace to be cured
I don't know what taranta has me
I don't know what taranta has me
But it doesn't let me go and
But it doesn't let me go and
But it doesn't let me go and makes me suffer
Taranta doesn't abandon me
Taranta doesn't abandon me
You dance alone and
You dance alone and
You dance alone, you can't heal
Let taranta dance
Let taranta dance
There's sadness
There's sadness
There's sadness, drive it away
