Vorrei e, non vorrei, non accendere le luci mai

On the wind a ticket blows, sit down and enjoy the show

There's a playbill on your seat, ‘David Comes to Life,' it reads

Never dream and never age, watch the drama on the stage

Quiet as the lights are drawn, let the sirens sing their songs

I feel like I'll never leave, like I belong right here

Among the pale on an indolent odyssey

I feel warm and invisible now that my wits are dim

Gone is the glare of day, and my cup is full

It's so nice to get off my feet

Trace the spotlight's shine over me

Heavy comes serenity, the blinding lamp of reverie

Every dream buries its day, so why not doze your life away?

When you die you get to see all the things you could have been

Every word you couldn't keep, so smell the ripe flowers of sleep

Take me off to paradise, I'll pay you any price

Just sit me down with a crown for my sacrifice

Start the show, and go, go get me everything

I'm at home all alone in this nothingness

Open my petals wide, let the perfume inside

And then I'll close my eyes

And let the drip hit hard on the back of my mind

Have you got a torch to light

To guide you through the coming night?
