(Testo di Pierangelo Bertoli)
(Musica di Luca Bonaffini)
E' la quinta stagione che viene ogni tanto (dimmi che nome ha)
E' il risveglio del lupo che dorme al suo fianco (dimmi che nome ha)
E' una donna che piange la sua violenza vittima della violenza
Un bambino vestito da carro armato (dimmi che nome ha)
E' lo spettro feroce di un triste passato (dimmi che nome ha)
E' una iena che cerca un amico fidato (dimmi che nome ha)
E' una terra divisa dal capitale dall'orgoglio nazionale
Dalle sette, le razze, le religioni (dimmi che nome ha)
E' la guerra che spacca la terra
Gonfia mostri di crudelta'
Copre di terrore l'umanita'
E' la guerra che tutto cancella
Che distrugge senza pieta'
Spegne la speranza e la liberta'
E' un poeta che danza col ferro sguainato (dimmi che nome ha)
Un serpente che striscia nell'erba di un prato (dimmi che nome ha)
E' un uccello perduto in un nero mare che non riesce piu' a volare
Un disperso che vaga e non puo' tornare (dimmi che nome ha)
E' una trave sospesa che cede di schianto (dimmi che nome ha)
Un miliardo di voci sepolte nel fango (dimmi che nome ha)
E' una madre sul corpo del suo ferito... ma E' la madre del nemico
E' una falsa ragione dall'aria fiera (dimmi che nome ha)
E' la guerra che spacca la terra
Gonfia mostri di crudelta'
Copre di terrore l'umanita'
E' la guerra che tutto cancella
Che distrugge senza pieta'
Spegne la speranza e la liberta'
