Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Favole by Francesco Renga from Italian to English.
Sai quanto mi piacciono
You know how much I like
I vizi dell'esistenza
The vices of existence
Quando non c' pi niente da perdere
When there's nothing left to lose
Consolano la mia speranza
They console my hope
Certo che non sarà facile
Of course it won't be easy
Confondere le mie paure
To confuse my fears
Quando non c' pi niente da prendere
When there's nothing left to gain
Si affacciano dal cuore
They emerge from the heart
Ma ora sono stanco
But now I'm tired
Stanco anche di te
Tired of you too
Come posso stare qui seduto e divertire
How can I sit here and entertain
Mentre so perfettamente come andrà a finire
While I know perfectly well how it will end
Ma tu credi che sia facile per me
But do you think it's easy for me
Bere e raccontarti favole?
To drink and tell you fables?
Credimi non sono un angelo
Believe me, I'm not an angel
Né vittima del caso
Nor a victim of chance
Amami se ti fa comodo
Love me if it suits you
Fammi impazziate se puoi
Drive me crazy if you can
Il vino mi assomiglia
Wine is like me
Si fa corrompere
It lets itself be corrupted
Come posso stare qui seduto e divertire
How can I sit here and entertain
Mentre so perfettamente come andrà a finire
While I know perfectly well how it will end
Ma tu credi che sia facile per me
But do you think it's easy for me
Bere e raccontarti favole?
To drink and tell you fables?
Ma tu credi che sia facile per me
But do you think it's easy for me
Bere e raccontarti favole?
To drink and tell you fables?
