To avoid the ravine

 

LISTEN TO - ASCOLTA 

It was one day before 

He said belong to me or go away 

But I wanted to know 

Is my faith enough or I've to pray 

 And that time I felt, I could be aware 

It will be one day before 

that everything would fall apart 

I will try not to bolt 

I will underpin my poor old heart 

And that day we'll know how, to avoid the ravine 

Into our deepest thoughts 

we know what is right and what is true 

and the world outside 

is nothing but a shadow in the blue 

So walking back to my life 

I understand I can't lie 

no more 

I'm enraged to myself 

when I think to all that I have sold out 

without thinking that the time 

like a candle it continuously burns out 

I feel there is a weir 

an unpalatable barrier 

to blow 

I know, one day before 

the angels will say it could be late 

to recover the souls 

and to let them fly over the flames 

It is the only way, to avoid the ravine 

Into our deepest thoughts 

we know what is right and what is true 

and the world outside 

is nothing but a shadow in the blue 

So walking back to my life 

I understand I can't lie 

no more 

I'm enraged to myself 

when I think to all that I have sold out 

without thinking that the time 

like a candle it continuously burns out 

I feel there is a weir 

an unpalatable barrier 

to blow
