Everything is perspective

LISTEN TO - ASCOLTA













You said me that there's a place
where I can be myself
completely, but I don't know where it is

Yes, a defiant I am
it's the sap in my veins
that flows only if I halt for a moment

Everything is perspective 
there is nothing else 
the way I use adjectives 
the tense of the verbs 
I understand everyday something more 
but the next day I'm still weak and so cold 

But everything is perspective 
and there is no shame 
It's not enough to be active 
to fight drowsy days 
I have to cling to my deepest desires 
reluctantly putting them in the fire 

I shimmer when I'm in peace
when I'm not on my knees
and from my perch I can see further

In those days I'm like an owl
that can hoot on its trunk
to say to the night there is a king

Everything is perspective 
there is nothing else 
the way I use adjectives 
the tense of the verbs 
I understand everyday something more 
but the next day I'm still weak and so cold 

But everything is perspective 
and there is no shame 
not enough to be active 
to fight drowsy days 
I have to cling to my deepest desires 
reluctantly to put them in the fire
