Lyrics
Corre veloce, ma in che senso
il nostro tempo sconosciuto e strano
e i nostri occhi spaventati
guardano ci? che ci circonda
e non sanno credere ad un tecnico sortilegio che
pian piano e indifferente ci rapina
e ci trascina verso una realt?
che non vedremo mai (fra entit? sconosciute e computers)
che non vedremo mai (fra le schede cifrate e le citt?)
che non vedremo mai…
E corre l' uomo confuso verso
ci? che neanche lui capisce,
chi ha programmato la sua vita
non sa chi sia e dove
Lyrics translation
It runs fast, but in what sense
our time unknown and strange
and our frightened eyes
are they looking at us? that surrounds us
and they don't know how to believe a technical spell that
slowly and indifferently rob us
and drag us into a reality?
that we will never see (between entities? unknown and computers)
which we will never see (between encrypted cards and cities?)
that we'll never see…
And the confused man runs towards
ci? that he doesn't even understand,
who planned his life
he doesn't know who he is and where
