what keeps me up...

home.

ANOTHER DAY

whenever you’re afraid
of the sound of echoes in your brain
of the sun on a dead empty lane
of your shroud getting wet in the rain
it’s so hard to define
your own name
the shape of broken lines
terrifies even the strong and brave
you know I never sit in the rain
it’s just another day
but so hard do define
the road that leads to something true
this giant leap into the new
it’s just another day
but so hard to define
the road that leads to something true
this giant leap into the new
it’s just another day
but so hard to define
the road that leads to something true
this giant leap into the new

lyrics by Sara Bertoncini

Another Day

AN EMPTY ROAD

uneven lines
to define as wisdom
the absence of symmetry
making me smile
tragedies
universes of sorrow
I don’t care
I don’t care

I don’t care
I don’t care
and I don’t care

a million men
such little fun
shimmering nothing
to share with none
is this all fake
or a prayer
to an unexistent god
who doesn’t fall
what do I care?
what do I want?

‘cause I don’t care
‘cause I don’t care

I don’t care
I don’t care
I don’t care about this little despair
I don’t care
I don’t care
I don’t care about this little despair
and I don’t care
I don’t care about this little despair
I don’t care
I don’t care
I don’t care about this little despair
and I don’t care
‘cause I, ‘cause I, ‘cause I
‘cause I, ‘cause I, ‘cause I
‘cause I don’t care

An Empty Road

FIGHT AGAIN

mornings that make you feel shit
gotta get on but I cannot commit
work on that hit
squeezin’ my mind where is all of that wit
hard to admit I’m in conflict
wanna transmit I’m legit
shaking your hands
follow your trends
when all I want is to quit

diving inside are you on my side
or wanna hide
but I feel tight
I just cried
or was it just a sigh
taking my fears
making it real
how long till it heals
where is my heart
where is my mind
I do not feel

baby you left me this void
now it is you that I try to avoid
I’m not overjoyed
maybe I miss it no need no Freud
here is the sun
here is the sky
here are the moon and the stars
then I look up
gotta get up
but deep inside it’s just scat

so I walk slow
what do I know
this is the dark before glow
shouldn’t deny
let myself cry
let every piece of me die
just turn it off
wanna get off
this is too tough
open the cage
let me get out

oh, all I wanted was a life of love
all I wanted was somebody to adore
and just to be me
(and just to be me)

oh, and all the terror to be wiped away
all the monsters that I fight again
just to be free
for once
for real

is it that bad
is it too hard
is it too sad
maybe you’re glad
of what you had
and there is nothing to add
this is my life
this is my shit
am not gonna move a bit
so here I stand
just hold my hand
take it or leave it
don’t try to understand

but in millions there’s a march of thoughts
(coming towards me)
an army of bugs giving me drugs eating my lungs
(eating my lungs)
I wanna dream
I wanna love
I wanna try
(I'm gonna try)
is there anything left before I die

all I wanted was a life of love
all I wanted was somebody to adore
and just to be me

oh, and all the terror to be wiped away
all the monsters that I fight again
just to be free
for once
for real

oh, all I want is a life of love
all I want is somebody to love
and still be me
