Disperato Lyrics in English by Marco Masini
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Disperato by Marco Masini from Italian to English.
Quando tu metti in moto
When you start
Come me senza te
Like me without you
Quando tu
When you
Spacchi il vetro
Smash the glass
Come me senza te
Like me without you
Quando stai in agguato
When you're lying in wait
Come me senza te
Like me without you
Quando sei disperato
When you're desperate
Come me senza te
Like me without you
E quando torno a lei mi faccio quasi pena
And when I go back to her, I almost pity myself
E più che non ci sei e più che voglio te
And the more you're not here, the more I want you
Voglio ancora le tue dita che graffiano la schiena
I still want your fingers scratching my back
Lei non è una via d'uscita e forse non ce n'è
She's not a way out, and maybe there isn't one
E quando sei disperato
And when you're desperate
Come me senza te
Like me without you
Quando sai
When you know
Di essere sbagliato come me
That you're wrong, like me
Ché muoio senza te
'Cause I die without you
E me ne frego della libertà
And I don't give a f*ck about freedom
Stanotte vado e spacco la città
Tonight I'll go and smash the city
Con questo ago disperato in me
With this desperate needle inside me
Senza te
Without you
E allora annaffio il muro con il mio veleno
And then I water the wall with my poison
Amore a muso duro accidenti a te
Tough love, d*mn you
Accidenti a questa vita che corre come un treno
D*mn this life that runs like a train
No, non c'è una via d'uscita, lo so che non ce n'è
No, there's no way out, I know there isn't one
Quando sei disperato
When you're desperate
Come me senza te disperato
Desperate like me without you
(Quando sei disperato)
(When you're desperate)
Come me, ché muoio senza te
Like me, 'cause I die without you
(Quando sei disperato)
(When you're desperate)
