lyrics

ABASIA
pianti e risate ci diversificano tra le bestie,
la crudeltà ci accomuna,
primi nel perseguire divari e molestie,
con quale cura infliggiamo castigo e tortura,
privi di vari strumenti, vedute modeste,
primati dai modi garbati, congreghe funeste,
privati del senso pratico, platea per le pubbliche feste,
arsi vivi su roghi rituali, siamo le ceneri delle foreste,
deteniamo primati morali, diffondiamo miscele indigeste,
congegni mortali, se il boia è maldestro ci falcia la peste,
un tiro al capestro, un castello di caste, l’incendio si è acceso,
non c’è governo che duri in eterno, e una volta di queste
se muta l’accento, oscillerà controvento il sovrano appeso,
sul pavimento rotoleranno le teste,
brucia d’inerzia il legname del tempo,
brace di un fuoco mai spento,
il mondo è fermo, non lo direste,
dato il trascorrere di ogni momento,
ruota compiendo una rivoluzione,
segniamo i fusi sul globo terrestre,
ogni ciclo recide un legame,
non si decide, non c’è un intento,
ritorna il sole alle stesse finestre:
la recidiva del firmamento,
colpa del cielo se ci si illude che tutto sia in movimento.
il sangue ricorda alla carne come il suo fine sia il disfacimento,
ciò che si muove poi giace e muore,
e dalla putredine esala un fermento,
condividiamo la convinzione che ridere non sia un lamento,
colpa del cielo se ci si illude che tutto sia in movimento.

ABASIA
cries and laughs define ourselves among the beasts,
cruelty unites us, we’re always the first ones
in pursuing differences and harassment,
we carefully inflict torture and punishment,
devoid of various tools, equipped with modest views,
primates with polite manners, fatal covenants,
privately deprived of practical sense,
impractical audience for public holidays,
set ablaze still alive on ritual burnings,
we’re the ashes of the forests,
we hold moral primates as inmates,
we spread indigestible blends, deadly devices,
if the executioner is clumsy
there will be the plague to cut us down,
nosedive in the noose, a castes castle,
the flames rage, no government lasts forever,
and one of these times, if this wind shifts up,
the sovereign will hang downwind,
heads will roll onto the floor,
the timber of time burns of inertia,
ember of an arson that never extinguishes,
the world stands still, you wouldn’t say that,
since every moment elapses,
it spins around performing a revolution,
we mark time zones on the globe,
every cycle severs a bond, no one is deciding,
there is no intention,
the sun always returns to the very same windows,
such is the recurrence of the firmament,
blame it all on the sky for we are deluded
that everything is in motion,
the blood reminds to the flesh
that its purpose is total decay,
everything that moves eventually lies and then dies,
and from the rot a ferment exhales,
we share the belief that grin doesn't mean groan,
our delusion that everything is in motion,
that is all sky’s fault.
