Resistere

Resist

With my hands I've touched the end

Without knowing who was there with me

I've travelled through all my fears

And then made the same mistakes

I could no longer say what I thought

I could no longer do what I told you

Couldn't remember the pain I felt

Couldn't confess what I dreamed of

I can't read what I'd written

I can no longer repeat the things I've learned

It'll always be like the first time

I want to tell you my strange dream

There were so many of you, so many of us

All there.

I want to try to exist

My nature is to resist

And losing doesn't matter to me

What I need now is to live

Comparing myself with society doesn't scare me

And no, no limits

The wonder of my eyes won't crumble

I'd caress myself and I'd tear myself to pieces

These hands still can't believe

The immensity of blue skies

Without the fear of falling, of failing

No limits, no rules

No, no, no, no, no!

I want to try to exist

My nature is to resist

And losing doesn't matter to me

What I need now is to live

Father, you told me, "Protect your mother"

But who's left to protect me?

And I felt guilty

All those times that I was weak

My magical life,

Chase away my fears

And losing doesn't matter to me

What I need now is to live.

No to weapons! No to war! No to violence!

No to weapons! No to war! No to violence!

No to weapons! No to war! No to violence!

No to weapons! No to war! No to violence!

No to weapons! No to war! No to violence!

No to weapons! No to war! No to violence!

No to weapons! No to war! No to violence!

I wouldn't want this story to write itself

And I think about when we'll stop crying too

What do you want me to tell you?

I'm in pieces, but I go on

Please, never think you can be enough for yourself, for yourself*

I got lost in the forest

Leaving behind the polluting noise

I only remember that someone was saying

"Tomorrow will be a day to remember, not to forget."

I want to try to exist

My nature is to resist

And losing doesn't matter to me

What I need now is to live

[*addressed to first a female, then a male "you"]
