Free Body of a Lifer’s Soul (5:31)
Music by Brunello, Colman, De Marchi, Indriolo, Schimd
Lyrics by Indriolo
Lyrics
“I’ve counted three steps of my living space,
to feel boxed in where a ticket is expensive,
iced cage, I would like spring warmth,
I dig up excuses to dig a hole out of this ‘court’.
Yes, I was wrong, I was wretch,
but in this world I can’t sit on a bench,
I must work, I must sweat,
for my little doll at any price and any beat”
I sell myself, to sell illusion,
I sell my doll for love of peace,
caged for life and caged to defray,
just when she least expected it, I’m returned
CH. How much I repent for roads that I ever crossed.
I’m escaping from all jails,
but as much as I’m able to escape.
I’d like to go back and give dignity to my life.
Dad is back, don’t you wanna embrace me?!
Kiss me baby, I’m sorry if I was wrong!
I pray for you, my hands are cracked,
I’ve made a mistake, now I’m escaped”
The paradigm is: if you’re wrong, you’re forced to continue to make mistakes…
the diameter of the hole to escape is eighty-one centimeters,
… I used my hands and a spoon.”
“Necessity to help my family imprisoned me now I’m tormented by my easy solutions”
How much I’m ashamed of the roads that I’ve crossed,
I wanna escape from my jails.
but as much as I’m able to run away.
I’d like to go back and make myself worthy of my heir.
CH. How much I repent for roads that I ever crossed.
I’m escaping from all jails,
but as much as I’m able to escape.
I’d like to go back and give dignity to my life.
Let’s Run away, before they discover our hole.
Get away, before what I’ve created takes its revenge.
Fly away, in a world that gives me honor
… but as far as I’m able to fl y away… I’ll pay forever.
