Where the sharks go to sleep

from Amare by Gianni Maranzano

/

lyrics

One day from a cliff
I dived in the deep
And I joined with my path
The sky and the sea

Where the blue fades to black
And the sharks go to sleep
I saw her laying there
Where the fishermen sink

So this is the day
Our skins will meet
The day five hundred birds
Ceased to sing in that creek

So the beast with her tongue
Stroke the bottom of my feet
And my eyes turned to glass
And my soul turned to steel

A silence came out of my mouth
when I tried to tell her about
those untold grieves

But the water spoke for me
When it started to breath
Sending waves full of sorrow
near the coast and her trees

There's a sound you can hear if you're breathing quietly
Rising from the foams and dying with the waves at your feet
It's the sound and the whisper of my melancholy
Who was born from the fissure of that bad alchemy

There's a place where I lay and the sun cannot see
Where the blue fades to black and the sharks go to sleep
The same place where my heart broke in two thousands fish
Helping her to get out of the water freely
