Giacomo questa mattina
cavalca la sua bicicletta,
dall'alto dei suoi quindici anni
corre di tutta fretta.
Deve raggiungere prima
la scuola stamattina,
ieri aveva iniziato con Erika
una storia importante.
Giacomo ha paura
ma il coraggio non gli manca,
ha vissuto per anni di fila
senza un raggio di speranza.
Ha visto scivolare via
la vita di chi l'ha creato,
nel peggiore dei modi,
che Dio non può aver ideato.
Mille scarpe rosse, sopra gradini di pietra,
mille scarpe rotte
da altrettante mani di pietra,
mille braccia spezzate e mille vite derubate,
mille cuori spogliati,
che non saranno più dimenticati.
la lalalalalala la lalalalala
Giacomo sa che la paura
è una strana sensazione,
più continui a sfuggirla
e più provi in lei attrazione.
Ma basta un colpo di coraggio
e per magia il gioco è fatto,
è bastato toccare l'amore
per cambiare la sua vita
Mille scarpe rosse, sopra gradini di pietra,
mille scarpe rotte
da altrettante mani di pietra,
mille braccia spezzate e mille vite derubate,
mille cuori spogliati,
che non saranno più dimenticati.
La lalalalalala la lalalalalala
Giacomo le tiene la mano
ed Erika gli sorride.
Lui si è promesso che
la proteggerà dal male?
lalalalala...
