Dietro alla porta blindata
che hai chiuso a chiave e sei uscita
forse hai lasciato la tua vita
e ora provi a vivere senza
mentre parliamo sei lontana
come la Callas quando in scena
fingeva di piangere
e stava piangendo per davvero
a forza di correre il più lontano possibile
mi sono dimenticato da cosa stavo scappando
e poi mi sono ritrovato da solo
con tutta una grande folla intorno
che mi guardava come è successo a me
quando una notte mi ha attraversato un leone
o forse era solo un cane
un cane solo come me
Come una fiamma divampa nel petto
prende la notte e ne fa un nuovo giorno
ora ricordo di quando ti ho detto
che senza te questa vita è un inferno
gente simpatica certo ne incontro
tu lo sapevi che non è lo stesso
se tu non ci sei e tu dove sei adesso
si ride, si vive, si piange lo so
ma non è lo stesso
si viaggia, si studia, il lavoro lo so
ma senza progresso
senza te non è lo stesso
Mi piaceva raccontare sempre storie
anche quelle che inventavo erano vere
le parole diventavano scultura
mi divertivo a romperle facendole cadere
poi prendevo tutti i pezzi e li mischiavo
come un pazzo poi io te li regalavo
e così che costruimmo un mondo assurdo
dove viverci assomiglia un po' a una sfida
ma la vita poi ti arriva senza chiederti permesso
pensi di averla fregata e ti sta addosso
si presenta con quell'aria disillusa
come niente passa da una porta chiusa
e di notte quando appaiono le stelle
faccio ancora finta di essere il tuo eroe
che ti prende con il coraggio e la magia
hai presente la magia
Come una fiamma divampa nel petto
prende la notte e ne fa un nuovo giorno
ora ricordo di quando ti ho detto
che senza te questa vita è un inferno
gente simpatica certo ne incontro
tu lo sapevi che non è lo stesso
se tu non ci sei e tu dove sei adesso
si ride, si vive, si piange lo so
ma non è lo stesso
si viaggia, si studia, il lavoro lo so
ma senza progresso
Senza brividi, cuori ruvidi
ma un po' soli
senza limiti, siamo liberi
ma un po' soli
Jovanotti, real name Lorenzo Cherubini (Rome, September 27, 1966), is an Italian singer-songwriter considered one of the most influential figures in contemporary Italian music. His career began in the 1980s, launched by Claudio Cecchetto, and was characterized by a blend of rap and world music, always interpreted in an hip hop and funky style. Over the years, Jovanotti has progressively evolved his musical style, moving closer to the Italian songwriting tradition with lyrics that address philosophical, religious, and political themes. Alongside his musical career, Jovanotti has distinguished himself for his strong social and political commitment. A convinced pacifist, he has collaborated with organizations such as Emergency, Amnesty International, the Anti-Vivisection League (LAV), Nigrizia, and Data. He participated in demonstrations against public debt in the 1990s and in the movements No Excuses and Make Poverty History, taking part in Live8. Among his most representative songs are "My Girl", "Without Fear", "The Postman", "Boy of the Sea" and "The Essential".
