about

Il mio secondo singolo: la storia del duello interiore contro un visitatore meschino.
//
My second single: a tale of emotional duelling against a vile visitor.

lyrics

Shedding a few tears at night
Is never a shameful way of letting go
Hiding is a no-go too
As what I am escaping comes from deep inside
There's some of you that may relate
When I say there's often nothing I can do
The firmest grab I've ever felt
Has left a mark and cast a spell

A-N-X-I-E-T-Y are you creeping on me?
And F-E-A-R you gonna stop? Are you ever leaving me alone?

Cause I'm so desperate for purpose
But one too many times I come to terms
With a disagreeing disposition
That doesn't let me sleep at night
I am so desperate for purpose
I wasn't born for fear to freeze me
I have to tame my chains down once and for all
Be it the last thing that I do
Yeah, yeah

Sometimes I can almost tell
It's rooted in so much it feels intentional
It's growing like a parasite
That's constantly depriving me of will and pride

A-N-X-I-E-T-Y are you creeping on me?
And F-E-A-R you gonna stop? Are you ever leaving me alone?

Cause I'm so desperate for purpose
But one too many times I come to terms
With a disagreeing disposition
That doesn't let me sleep at night
I am so desperate for purpose
I wasn't born for fear to freeze me
I have to tame my chains down once and for all
Be it the last thing that I do

The threshold of a thousand doors
In a neverending corridor
A chainsaw-like spin in my gut
And a rusty dryness on my tongue
The threshold of a thousand doors
In a neverending corridor
A chainsaw-like spin in my gut
And a rusty dryness on my tongue

Desperate for purpose
But one too many times I come to terms
With a disagreeing disposition
That doesn't let me sleep at night
I am so desperate for purpose
I wasn't born for fear to freeze me
I have to tame my chains down once for all
Be it the last thing that I do
Yeah, yeah
