lyrics

Ofelia

Raccontami Ofelia della mandragora
Raccontami Ofelia dei tuoi filtri bianchi, rossi e neri
Raccontami Ofelia del denso fumo che sale sulle vene
E di quelle fiamme che avvolgono come spire i tuoi capelli

Raccontami Ofelia dei tormenti che ti spingono a cercarmi
durante la notte mi ricordi quanto ti è toccato in sorte

Confessioni irrevocabili
guarigioni e aiuti inutili oramai
il fumo nero è dentro l’anima
quando la fiamma sale lo spirito è volato già
ma i tuoi sospiri ancora seguono
i miei attimi
i miei battiti…

Terribile Ofelia il senso di colpa non fa serrare gli occhi
per la mia sentenza che ti spinse tra le fiamme quella notte
Ancora il tuo sguardo lacerante tra i miei resti di coscienza
ormai troppo sporca a brandelli tra i peccati della forca

Ofelia (eng)

Tell me Ophelia about the mandrake
Tell me Ofelia about your white, red and black filters
Tell me Ophelia about the thick smoke rising on the veins
And of those flames that envelop your hair like coils

Tell me Ofelia about the torments that make you look for me
during the night you remind me how much you have been lucky

Irrevocable Confessions
healings and useless help now
the black smoke is inside the soul
when the flame rises the spirit has already flown
but your sighs still follow
my moments
my beats...

Terrible Ophelia the sense of guilt does not make you close your eyes
for my sentence that threw you into the flames that night
Again your piercing gaze among my remains of conscience
now too dirty in shreds among the sins of the gallows
