La sorella di mio fratello
Tre allegri ragazzi morti Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

La sorella di mio fratello
ha un debole per me
riconosce in me
qualcosa di sé

lo dice spesso
vorrei essere un uomo
vorrei essere libera
di essere come sono

sudano le mie mani
sono una salamandra
e nel fuoco non brucerò





stringimi forte
sarà così domani
