Lyrics

Le parole contano dille piano tante volte rimangono
fanno male anche se dette per rabbia
si ricordano si ricordano.
Le parole quante volte rimangono le parole
feriscono le parole ti cambiano
ti bastava anche un filo di voce per dirmi ti amo
ma quante volte mi hai urlato sul viso che valevo poco.
Mi sentivo un bambino immaturo e magari ero un uomo
ti credevo una donna importante eri donna a metà.
Dimmi che rimane di noi due dimmi hi ci riavvicinerà
a te sembrava un gioco bello se dura poco
era una cena fredda da consumarsi in fretta.
A te sembrava un gioco bello se dura poco
era una cena fredda che hai consumato in fretta.
Le parole mordono hanno fame come i cani ti ringhiano
dentro il cuore fanno male e si insinuano ti consumano ti divorano.
Le parole fanno danni invisibili sono note che aiutano e che la notte confortano
quante volte leggere e preziose me le hai sussurrate
ma altre volte mi hai dato del pazzo se di te morivo.
Mi sentivo un bambino immaturo e magari ero un uomo
ti credevo una donna importante eri donna a metà.
Dimmi che rimane di noi due dimmi chi ci riavvicinerà
a te sembrava un gioco bello se dura poco
era una cena fredda da consumarsi in fretta.
A te sembrava un gioco bello se dura poco
era una cena fredda che hai consumato in fretta.

Lyrics translation

Words matter say it softly so many times remain
they hurt even if said out of anger
they remember they remember.
Words how many times are words left
hurt words change you
you even had a thread of voice to tell me I love you
but how many times have you yelled at me in the face that I was worthless.
I felt like an immature child and maybe I was a man
I thought you were an important woman.you were half a woman.
Tell me what's left of the two of us tell me hi will get us back together
it seemed like a nice game to you if it lasts a short time
it was a cold dinner to eat quickly.
It seemed like a nice game to you if it lasts a short time
it was a cold dinner that you ate quickly.
Words bite are hungry as dogs growl at you
inside the heart they hurt and creep in they consume you devour you.
Words do invisible damage are notes that help and that night comfort
how many times have you whispered them to me?
but other times you called me crazy if I died of you.
I felt like an immature child and maybe I was a man
I thought you were an important woman.you were half a woman.
Tell me what's left of us. tell me who's gonna get us back together.
it seemed like a nice game to you if it lasts a short time
it was a cold dinner to eat quickly.
It seemed like a nice game to you if it lasts a short time
it was a cold dinner that you ate quickly.
