Oh-oh-oh-oh

And you tell me that if it's already over, it never really began

And you erase me from everything

Flag at half-mast, we've lowered it

In mourning

When I saw you, that light blinded me

I even believed it, but it was wrong

And we just barked, and it's already a failure

I remain lying here on the floor

Because right now I can't think

Better to change the subject

You want to just leave

You know that pollution in China isn't normal at all

I hope that global warming

Melts your ice in the sea

It was our lottery ticket

And with a breath, it blew away

Slips from our hands like a hemorrhage

Doctor, we're losing it

It was a lottery ticket

And with a breath, it blew away

And now you want to say it's my fault

As if I could blame the wind (oh-oh-oh)

We'll never know if we would've won or wasted time (oh-oh-oh)

As if I could blame the wind (oh-oh-oh)

And now you tell me you're leaving, but you can't

This city is also a bit mine if you think about it

Even if I'm not a nursery hook

I felt at home like Di Vaio

Too fast, I lost a couple

The perfect beach, the ocean in February

For three months you're on the other side of the world

There it's night, here it's day, but it's the same, I don't sleep

Reopening the topic like an autopsy

An allergy to every compliment

I don't know if you've ever been on my side

A nagging thought then becomes a disease

We went from telepathy

To not hearing each other, like in a tunnel

The utopia that that ticket was a winner

We'll remain with the doubt forever

It was our lottery ticket

And with a breath, it blew away

Slips from our hands like a hemorrhage

Doctor, we're losing it

It was a lottery ticket

And with a breath, it blew away

And now you want to say it's my fault

As if I could blame the wind (oh-oh-oh)

We'll never know if we would've won or wasted time (oh-oh-oh)

As if I could blame the wind (oh-oh-oh)

It was a lottery ticket

And with a breath, it blew away

Slips from our hands like a hemorrhage

It was a lottery ticket

And with a breath, it blew away

And now you want to say it's my fault

It's my fault, it's my fault

As if I could blame the wind

It was our lottery ticket

And with a breath, it blew away

Slips from our hands like a hemorrhage

Doctor, we're losing it

It was a lottery ticket

And with a breath, it blew away

And now you want to say it's my fault

As if I could blame the wind (oh-oh-oh)

We'll never know if we would've won or wasted time (oh-oh-oh)

As if I could blame the wind (oh-oh-oh)

abbaiato — we barked

Abbaiato comes from the verb "abbaiare," meaning "to bark." While it literally refers to the sound a dog makes, its use in this song is quite striking and metaphorical.

In the lyrics, "E abbiamo abbaiato ed è già un fallimento" (And we barked and it's already a failure), it suggests a situation where the characters made a lot of noise or fuss, perhaps argued or made empty threats, but ultimately achieved nothing. It implies a futile effort, like barking without biting, leading directly to a sense of failure. This unexpected human application of a canine action makes it a memorable and thought-provoking word.

"La Colpa Al Vento" ("Blame the Wind") is Willie Peyote's account of a relationship that ends before either person can admit whose fault it really was. He opens with a funeral image, a flag at half mast, as a stand in for the breakup, then spends the song circling the same question: if you can't blame the wind for the weather, how can you blame chance for a love that simply ran out?

The "lottery ticket" that "flew away with one puff" is the song's central metaphor: the relationship felt like a winning ticket the moment it arrived, and just as fragile the moment it was gone. Willie Peyote, joined by Godblesscomputers, fills the verses with everyday, almost mundane details, global warming, time zones, a beach in February, to show how ordinary life keeps moving even while the narrator is stuck replaying what went wrong. By the chorus he admits there's no answer: they'll never know if staying together would have been a win or a waste of time, so the only honest thing left to do is take the blame himself, rather than pin it on fate.
