Precious Things (Italian original)

You walk with me in the dark, you're the reason I survive because you've given me an objective, until red tears won't fall on the cement. I'll see your face, I'll know why you chose me.

You walk with me in the dark, you're the reason I survive because you've given me an objective, until my battles won't be over. Everyone of your glances, every phrase... precious things.

I wasn't doing well when I was 16, Isaw the sun rise from a hospital aisle. Once out I touched the bottom, continuing to dig, I was slipping, I kept up living by smoking. I'll never forget that time when you were gone, when the final act was in fact the first of my thoughts - entire days spent between nigthmares and deliriums - looking for the truth in the bottom of too many glasses - I remember with detail the instant - the first contact and the promise I made which I still respect - the most important episode of my existance - the knowledge that you guide me under any circumstance - always together with you in every situation - you've given me everything I have including my name - I know my debt is immense - tears spent searching for some sense…needful things

In the dark you walk with me, you're the reason I survive because you've given me an objective. Until red tears won't fall on the cement, I'll see your face, I'll know why you chose me. in the dark you walk with me, you're the reason I survive because you've given me an objective until my battles won't be concluded. Every glance, every phrase….needful things.

Today I battle for myself - now I have an objective - I survive and wait for the next step - attracted by the concrete presence of a vision whose expression is the whole of four disciplines - distant voices I listen to - directed upwards - I wait that every riddle be risolved - I'll see your face - I'll remember every phrase in every mystic gaze - because if I still live it's only borrowed time - these are details - sometimes blinding blunders - at times the cuts on the wrist state these are mistakes - false steps taken in silent places - it's our souls together in simbiosis - closed eyes - choose the right direction - something survives even though it risks extinction - I know my debt is immense - tears spent searching for some sense….needful things

In the dark you walk with me, you're the reason I survive because you've given me an objective. Until red tears won't fall on the cement, I'll see your face, I'll know why you chose me. in the dark you walk with me, you're the reason I survive because you've given me an objective until my battles won't be concluded. Every glance, every phrase….needful things.

New horizions - new challenges - it's a circle that closes itself - new roads for who progresses on cement - darkness has enveloped what's left of the journey - you chose my destiny now take me far - I let you guide me and conduct me elsewhere - awaiting me are other doubts, other dangers, other trials - I'll know how to hear your voice even when it's silent - I'll be able to advance in dark places - among unknown faces - illusionist tricks - remember this - I exist only because you exist - I manifest a bond deeper than the ocean - the sound that accompanies me further than in no-mans land - together we'll walk in darkness until the end - because it's time that my journey takes me to my destination - I know my debt is immense - tears spent searching for some sense…needful things

In the dark you walk with me, you're the reason I survive because you've given me an objective. Until red tears won't fall on the cement, I'll see your face, I'll know why you chose me. in the dark you walk with me, you're the reason I survive because you've given me an objective until my battles won't be concluded. Every glance, every phrase….needful things. 4x
