Text Santa Marinella

You know today is one of those days that
If you want me leave me alone
And there is no one around that
Inside me know how to look

And Rome, which is a seaside city,
He opened my mouth and made me smoke
There is nothing left to fall in love with forever
So it’s worth staying

So hug me from behind tonight
Let me straighten the hairs on my skin
Let’s take an excuse under the house
And then let’s take it up

I just want to get moron and get hurt
Intercom and then escape
I want you to look at me and then you tell me everything is fine tomorrow
How much do you want for all of this?

Never look for me but let’s meet
Sooner or later without wanting to
To the spirits department
What are you doing? I warm the winter

My city is a nativity scene in the middle of the mountains
White and stubborn like old bitches
I really can’t go back just to say hello
To make sure no one is crying

Please pick my head up
As if it were the last one left
I noticed it in Santa Marinella
You and I are a planet and a star

I just want to get moron and get hurt
Intercom and then escape
I want you to look at me and then you tell me everything is fine tomorrow
How much do you want for all of this?
Don’t fly away
Na na na

I want you to look at me and then you tell me everything is fine tomorrow
How much do you want for all of this?
Don’t fly away
