ALL LYRICS BY MARCO SPIEZIA
BROKEN CHORD
Perplex lights looking over the shore A room like a come down after a score She stood right there looking at me She stood right there wanted to be Simple, somebody else Simple, something averse Simple, like the morning sun I saw it, and away I couldn’t run Come here closer she did and I couldn’t stop I will honour your will as I did before What am I to a glimpse of your soul A broken chord lost in space What am I to your eyes A child badly grown up First light shoots through the blinds Pretend to be asleep so clock slows down She laid on my side slowly breathing, I felt I wouldn’t dare wake her break the spell Simple, what more could we want? I trembled, as the clock moved on Simple, like the morning sun I saw it, and away I couldn’t run Come here closer she did and I couldn’t strop I will honour your will as I did before What am I to a glimpse of your soul A broken chord lost in space What am I to your eyes A child badly grown up to a glimpse of your soul A broken chord lost in space
DIFFERENT SHOES
Wrote a song about your soul, closed my eyes, knew it was gone My search, my search was pain, my search was in vain. I saw how long it took for me, to drop my arms and feel the breeze The change, you changed, I changed, and took back myself Don’t you look back at me now, Cus I’m a different person I’m wearing different shoes that fit me better Seeing that smile on your face, makes me happy Since you see one on me too, please be happy for me. Saw the calm before the storm, but I don’t have it all around My search , my search, my search, my search is over Don’t you look back at me now, Cus I’m a different person I’m wearing different shoes that fit me better Seeing that smile on your face, makes me happy Since you see one on me too, please be happy for me.
DOG’S TEETH
Touch, touch, touch it with your hands and Take down all your defence Arms down, don’t fight it anymore Embrace, take it don’t let it go ONE. Just one move. Table of chess. The queen is gone. ONE. Just one change, to change the game, the thrill has gone. Cough, cough it out of your system and Know that it’s pointless to keep it in Out is goes the moment you see it it’s Fear. Fear. Fear. Fear. ONE. Just one move. Table of chess. The queen is gone. ONE. Just one change, to change the game, the thrill has gone. Breathe in, not to go senseless and Gone back to when you were 5 Dog’s teeth, feeling so impotent When your eyes talk All is possible ONE. Just one move. Table of chess. The queen is gone. ONE. Just one change, to change the game, the thrill has gone.
FIND THE PEOPLE
Look around look (x5) you’ll see, In UK in the States in Japan in Brazil and in Italy Everything that was built, everything that was said, our society Has been built and crashed and built and crashed on fake democracy. Democratic, technocratic, aristocratic it’s just the same ‘Cus in the end everybody is just looking for money and fame, But they’re means, not goals yeh means not goals, and good goals ain’t mean, The people I am looking for, are looking for me? Lord, please help me find the people. People please help me find the link to break us free. Listen up (X5) you’ll hear In the bars in the streets in the blogs people whispering Follow trails, signs, learn, find, assimilate and speak, Gimme one good reason to stay asleep. In your room, on TV through your friends, they’re crawling in your head, But you’re not made to crawl, you’re not here to walk, run or be dead, So run, have fun, be free and jump, stay with me Run, have fun, jump to the sun, be happy Lord, please help me find the people. People please help me find the link to break us free.
I’M WITH YOU
I will say when I’m going, But I won’t say it to you I won’t say that I’m sorry, Even if I know it’s true I won’t give you another, Bit of bad news For one day you’ve had plenty, For once I’m with you I’m, I’m, I’m with you, and I am lonely too I will hold you close, But also a little bit far So when we get drunk together, If you trip I’ll grab you better I will show you warmth, But I might let through some cold So you don’t get used to All the love that I’ve got I’m, I’m, I’m with you, and I am sorry too
LADY DEATH
Never mind. Never mind. Never mind. Never mind. Ok. ok. ok! I know that you don’t get it but it doesn’t really matter If you change the way I say you won’t get it anyway Never mind. Never mind. Never mind. Never mind. Ok. ok. ok! I know that you’ve been trying and I know where you’ve been looking Your eyes are fixed ahead when you should be looking down And now, and now, and now, and now you’re out! And now and now, and now, and now Walk, just keep walking but watch every step Lady death kisses the already dead Don’t think you’re going to get anywhere Savour the moment and what lies ahead Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it, quiet, quiet please Give yourself a break ‘cus you’re getting to my head You’re stuck in your own vision and the answer lies beneath. Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it, quiet, quiet please You’re making so much noise that you can’t hear your own voice You’re like a broken tape and you look a fucking state And now, and now, and now, and now you’re out! And now and now, and now, and now Walk, just keep walking but watch every step Lady death kisses the already dead Don’t think you’re going to get anywhere Savour the moment and what lies ahead And now… x 8 Walk, just keep walking but watch every step Lady death kisses the already dead Don’t think you’re going to get anywhere Savour the moment and what lies ahead
NEW FOUND LAND
Tonight we had a really good time, really good time, really good time, And I’ve been wonder gin what to do next, what to do next But it’s not just the end of a night, end of a night, I think it might Be the end of something or the beginning of something else. Shiny shoes, yellow skies, taste of wind in my mouth, Won’t forget about the old but I love the new, love the new Funky red shoes that you got on, that you got on, that you got on New shoes to walk on a new ground It’s a new found land, it’s a new ground, it’s a new ground, it’s a new found land in our hands (X2) I lost all of my hopes, most of my hopes, all of my hopes, When I thought I’d lost you in the crowd, But some things are made to survive, made to survive, made survive To be lost and found again and again It’s a new found land, it’s a new ground, it’s a new ground, it’s a new found land in our hands (X2)
SMALL IS BEAUTIFUL
So many things in so many ways are so so hard to do, But maybe it’s because they look too big, To bear the weight the hit, Well I met a man who sorted it all out, He said break it down in bits, As bit by bit, it will go, that’s one thing I know Cus small is beautiful, small is beautiful I look at the world and I feel so small, insignificant People prefer to hide their fears, Ignore reality, But little by little by little I go, to change the world I know I can’t take down another wall in Berlin, But I can break a brick Cus small is beautiful, small is beautiful, small is beautiful, small is beautiful Take a little step outside your comfort zone, Take a little leap for yourself I look at you in the eyes, now I know what to do, Nothing too immense but true Cus small is beautiful, small is beautiful, Love is beautiful too, love is beautiful
THE NIGHT IS OVER
The night is over But I am not alone The smoke is sober The bottles have empty tops Why have you waited so long to come Why have you waited so long to say Why have you waited so long What have you done? Pipes and dreams are gone Now I'm on my own just a noisy fridge In the room Complain about the message That I never got breadcrumbs on the table and God Why have you waited so long to come Why have you waited so long to say Why have you waited so long What have you done? What have done? breadcrumbs on the table and God
DOG’S TEETH (traduzione ITALIANO)
Tocca, tocca, toccala con le tue mani Lascia andare ogni tuo senso di difesa Le braccia cadono, pesanti al suolo. Abbracciala, prendila, non lasciarla scappare: UNA. Solo una mossa. Un gioco di scacchi. La regina è presa. UNO. Solo un passo, per cambiare il gioco, e con esso l'emozione muore. Tossisci, e butta tutto fuori dal sistema Sapendo che tenerlo intrappolato dentro non ha senso Esce fuori nel momento in cui la vedi Paura. Paura. Paura. Paura. UNA. Solo una mossa. Un gioco di scacchi. La regina è presa. UNO. Solo un passo, per cambiare il gioco, e con esso l'emozione muore. Inspira, per non perdere i sensi Torna indietro a quel giorno, avevi 5 anni I denti del cane ti guardano, ti senti impotente Ma quando i tuoi occhi parlano Tutto è possibile, tutto è possibile, tutto è possibile, tutto è possible UNA. Solo una mossa. Un gioco di scacchi. La regina è presa. UNO. Solo un passo, per cambiare il gioco, e con esso l'emozione muore.
