Gioventù Bruciata

What do they know about violence?
Locked inside four marriages
Where those who love pay and those who don't love think twice

What do they know about the Sphinx?
Seen at eight years old, you were laughing, laughing with me
But they told me
That sometimes laughing is like pretending

You put on your Arabic songs in the car and
You sang off-key and then you told me old tales
You ran in the desert with the Invicta backpack but
There's no point in running if besides money you have no more breath or happiness

There's something I don't understand
How to dive into the Red Sea
I forgot too soon
But I remember well when you told me: I'll stay
Lost in a messed up life
If you think about me, I've complicated it
You always repeated the same phone call
Damn this burnt youth of yours

What do they know about farewells
If goodbyes were in fashion
Maybe you'd be trending first

I played in the car with Nintendo and Pokémon and
You complained if I didn't want to talk anymore
You opened the window to throw out the ashes
It's useless to hide
With a smile the shit I already know

There's something I don't understand
How to dive into the Red Sea
I forgot too soon
But I remember well when you told me: I'll stay
Lost in a messed up life
If you think about me, I've complicated it
You always repeated the same phone call
Damn this burnt youth of yours

Ah
