Afrodite

Baby, little white boy
Michelangelo, give me wings, ah

Killing an emotion
Burning it under the sun
Suffocating it with drugs
In a bath of alcohol
With the scent of summer
Parties on the boats
Under a calm sea
Straight as the asphalt

The sky, no, it doesn’t have freckles tonight
The moon, though, is stuck to the windows
My pupils retreat into the dark
I fall asleep, in this hole I’m alone
Even if I wander like a vagabond
I feel like a bottomless pit
Searching for something new
To fill this emptiness

I remember the first time
The first time being in love
That taste I’ve never felt
You’re something that’s never been there
I dreamed of you
Aphrodite, eh
You’re something that’s never been there

Rest
If anxiety is overwhelming
Try again

Boost my endorphins
Make me happier tonight
Give me a reason to live
One more reason to laugh
To fill this emptiness

I remember the first time
The first time being in love
That taste I’ve never felt
You’re something that’s never been there
I dreamed of you
Aphrodite, eh
You’re something that’s never been there
You’re something that’s never been there

When you called, I ran and came rushing
We’re barefoot on the barbed wire
I didn’t ask for what, not wanting things
I came alone, alone to find you

Killing an emotion
Burning it under the sun
Suffocating it with drugs
In a bath of alcohol
With the scent of summer
Parties on the boats
Under a calm sea
Straight as the asphalt
