øjne - ogni inverno lyrics
e finalmente sono stato a glasgow
era dicembre, ed era buio
mi sono riflesso nelle vetrine
ho seguito le insegne luminose
mi sentivo lontano e distratto
prima di sapere di te
quella sera d’inverno
sei uscita che era già buio
per respirare aria fresca e scattare foto
hai raggiunto una piazza semideserta:
solo una giostra e alcuni ragazzi
e cornacchie in cerca di cibo
ti hanno chiesto perché scatti foto
ti hanno detto di cancellarle
di non voler esistere in loro
ti hanno inseguita, ti hanno raggiunta prima del ponte
ti hanno b-ttata per terra, presa a calci, ti hanno fatto chiedere scusa
e quando ti sei rialzata intorno a te un mormorio confuso:
“non volevamo intrometterci, pensavamo fosse il tuo ragazzo
non sapevamo che fossero estranei, li avremmo fermati
ma pensavamo che fosse il tuo ragazzo con i suoi amici”
fa freddo a glasgow a dicembre
da questa città sarò lontano per sempre
anche quando cammino nel centro
pochi mesi dopo
ho visto quella foto:
non si vede nessuno
solo qualche luce su uno sfondo nero
ogni inverno fa buio presto
e ogni inverno si resta a casa
ogni inverno le strade deserte
e ogni inverno l’ombra dei viali
fa freddo a glasgow a dicembre
avere la testa altrove
e una tasca pesante
—
every winter
i have finally been to glasgow
it was december and it was dark
i saw reflections of myself on the shop windows
i followed the neon signs
i was feeling distant and absent-minded
before i got to know about you
on that winter night
you went out when it was already dark
to get a breath of fresh air and take pictures
you reached a half-empty square
only a carousel, a few guys
and some crows looking for food
they asked you why were you taking pictures
they told you to delete them
they told you they didn’t want to be in them
they chased you, they reached you right before the bridge
they threw you to the ground, they kicked you and made you apologize
when you raised from the ground, a confused murmur all around you:
“we did not want to meddle, we thought it was your boyfriend
we didn’t know they were strangers or else we would have stopped them
but we thought it was just your boyfriend with his friends”
glasgow gets cold in december
i will always be far away from this city
even when i walk in the center
a few months later
i saw that picture:
i couldn’t see anyone
just a few lights on a black background
every winter it gets dark early
every winter people stay home
and every winter the streets are empty
every winter, the shadows in the avenues
glasgow gets cold in december
when my mind is somewhere else
and my pocket is heavy
