Sisley Jam Cloud Transition

As the darkness falls, so does the music. From the depths of the night come melodies that evoke mysterious and powerful emotions, songs that capture the essence of the darkness that surrounds us. So turn down the lights, and let the darkness embrace you as you explore the depths of dark electronic music.

TESTO

Se sei il solo a credere in te stesso
Almeno è già qualcuno
È già una gran fortuna
E non guardare loro
Quei numeri uno
Che se poi vai ad indagare
Sono dei signor nessuno


Hanno tutti un bel lavoro
Lo stipendio, la casa nuova
Ma quelle sono solo foto 
E tu la vittima del gioco

Ma la vita non è così 
È togliere, è scegliere
Non avere neanche il tempo per giudicare

Ma la vita non è così
È trasformare il dolore
Cercare la leggerezza 
E lasciarti scivolare 



Se hai capito solo adesso
Almeno è già qualcosa
È una bella conquista
Puoi già guardarti indietro 



Ma non guardare loro
Lavora su te stesso
Risparmia le energie 
Buttati più spesso


E la vita è così 
Non c’è niente da fare
È fare quello che ti piace

È dormire tutto il giorno
Toccando il vuoto 
Ma finire sempre con la chitarra in mano 


È trasformare il dolore
Cercare la leggerezza 
E lasciarti scivolare

LYRICS

If you are the only one who believes in yourself
At least there's someone
That's already a great fortune
And don't look at them
Those number ones
Because if you investigate
They are nobody special

They all have a nice job
The salary, the new house
But those are just pictures
And you're the victim of the game

But life isn't like that
It's about taking away, choosing
Not even having time to judge

But life isn't like that
It's about transforming the pain
Seeking lightness
And letting yourself slide

If you've only understood now
At least it's something
It's a nice achievement
You can already look back

But don't look at them
Work on yourself
Save your energy
Throw yourself more often

And life is like that
There's nothing to be done
It's doing what you like

It's sleeping all day
Touching the void
But always ending up with the guitar in hand

It's about transforming the pain
Seeking lightness
And letting yourself slide

Leggerezza

Might be the last new release of the year.  It's been a great 2023 for me creatively.  Thanks to everybody who stopped by and spun a tune or two.  Special thanks to all my collaborators and future collaborators.

Best Holiday wishes to you all!

Dedicated to Emmy.
