lyrics

ADAMANTE
spesso si nega che la violenza sia ciò che ci lega,
quest’inquietudine che non si spiega, si seda,
mi preda, mi addenta, mi creda, mi invita alla resa,
mi invento stratega, la prego, si sieda,
invochiamo la tregua,
quest’indolenza che a tratti mi piega,
ma senza spezzarmi:
mi assale se allento la presa,
non si dilegua, si espande, mi assedia, mi pesa,
se mi allontano continua a cercarmi;
alla stregua di chi non si adegua
mi batto, mi abbatto: la prego, mi segua,
non cedo le armi.
correre in lacrime forse potrebbe giovarmi,
se non altro per ridere un po’ delle smanie che ho.
non è questo l'andazzo, però,
mi scappa da piangere, è vero,
patetico, non dico di no,
questo non è l'andazzo, però,
è vero, mi scappa da piangere,
ma credo che mi incazzerò.

ADAMANT
People often deny that violence is our strongest bond,
an uncanny concern that must be sedated,
it hunts me, it bites me, believe me,
i make myself up as a strategist,
so please, stay seated, let’s call for the truce,
an indolence that sometimes compels me,
without my being broken,
it haunts me if I lose the grip,
it won’t just disappear, it grows,
it besieges me, it’s weighing on me,
if I get away it comes find me again,
as those who do not adapt, i struggle,
i lose heart, so please come along,
i won’t surrender any arms;
maybe running in tears could benefit me,
at least for a bit of a laugh about my distress,
but this is not the way to go,
i think i may cry, that’s true,
pathetic, i wouldn’t say no,
however, this is not the way for sure,
that’s true, i maybe have to cry,
but i think i’ll just get pissed off.
