Glass Of Water
“Testo”
Scared of losing all the time
He wrote it in a letter
He was a friend of mine
He heard you could see your future
Inside a glass of water
The ripples and the lines
And he asked
"Will I see heaven in mine?"
That is just the way it was
Nothing could be better
And nothing ever was
Oh they say you can see your future
Inside a glass of water
The riddles and the rhymes
Will I see heaven in mine?
Oh oh oh oh I
Son don't ask
Neither half full nor empty
Is the glass
Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living
In the past
Going nowhere fast
So he wrote it on a wall
The hollowest of halos
Is no halo at all
Television selling
Plastic figurines of leaders
Saying nothing at all
And you chime
Stars in heaven align
Oh oh oh oh I
Son don't ask
Neither half full nor empty
Is the glass
Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living
In the past
Going nowhere fast
Oh what are we drinking when we're done?
Glasses of water
He wrote it in a letter
He was a friend of mine
He heard you could see your future
Inside a glass of water
The ripples and the lines
And he asked
"Will I see heaven in mine?"
That is just the way it was
Nothing could be better
And nothing ever was
Oh they say you can see your future
Inside a glass of water
The riddles and the rhymes
Will I see heaven in mine?
Oh oh oh oh I
Son don't ask
Neither half full nor empty
Is the glass
Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living
In the past
Going nowhere fast
So he wrote it on a wall
The hollowest of halos
Is no halo at all
Television selling
Plastic figurines of leaders
Saying nothing at all
And you chime
Stars in heaven align
Oh oh oh oh I
Son don't ask
Neither half full nor empty
Is the glass
Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living
In the past
Going nowhere fast
Oh what are we drinking when we're done?
Glasses of water
“Traduzione”
Spaventato di perdere sempre L'ha scritto in una lettera Era un mio amico Ha sentito puoi vedere il tuo futuro In un bicchiere d'acqua Le increspature e le linee E ha chiesto "Vedrò il paradiso nel mio?" Ecco come stavano le cose Niente poteva andare meglio E niente lo è stato Oh dicono che si puoi vedere il proprio futuro In un bicchiere d'acqua Gli indovinelli e le rime Vedrò il paradiso nel mio? Oh oh oh oh io Figlio non chiedere Non è nè mezzo pieno nè vuoto Il tuo bicchiere Aggrappati alla presa Passa la tua vita intera vivendo Nel passato Senza andare velocemente da nessuna parte Così l'ha scritto su un muro La più falsa delle aureole Non è per niente un'aureola La televisione vende Statuine di plastica dei leader Che non parlano E tu suoni le campane a festa Le stelle si allineano nel cielo Oh oh oh oh io Figlio non chiedere Non è nè mezzo pieno nè vuoto Il tuo bicchiere Aggrappati alla presa Passa la tua vita intera vivendo Nel passato Senza andare velocemente da nessuna parte Oh cosa berremo una volta che avremo finito? Bicchieri d'acqua
