Lyrics: His house has wood and ashes as a floor With the whole of the abyss below His face is like a mango His feet stink like a fisherman's He lives the life of the boat people But his heart beats for the city above His father fishes lobsters His mother is a whore She sees the face of the million people Among the wonders of the town She feels the earth when is still Or if it's quaking with the heat Born from the water... Only to be damned! Born from the water... To run away for ever more Tatami has lived his fifteenth circle His eyes have seen the colours of the depth He wants now to walk afloat He takes his little boat with the dragon's sail While the sea is smiling lazy He ploughs the eastern ocean And the waves are friends of his Should he reach the main land Or stay still on the shore To watch the waves in a clear perception To stay away from the abysses' lure His new age is built on the ashes of the town The selling of his body In the warming of the lights His new age is technology's damnation His inner depth darkening the lights Darkening the lights Born from the water To run away for ever more For ever more

Probably the best musical expression of Messina (my hometown). I grew up listening to Victrola. RIP Carlo x
Electronic melancholy in its perfect!
Lyrics:
His house has wood and ashes as a floor
With the whole of the abyss below
His face is like a mango
His feet stink like a fisherman's
He lives the life of the boat people
But his heart beats for the city above
His father fishes lobsters
His mother is a whore
She sees the face of the million people
Among the wonders of the town
She feels the earth when is still
Or if it's quaking with the heat
Born from the water...
Only to be damned!
Born from the water...
To run away for ever more
Tatami has lived his fifteenth circle
His eyes have seen the colours of the depth
He wants now to walk afloat
He takes his little boat with the dragon's sail
While the sea is smiling lazy
He ploughs the eastern ocean
And the waves are friends of his
Should he reach the main land
Or stay still on the shore
To watch the waves in a clear perception
To stay away from the abysses' lure
His new age is built on the ashes of the town
The selling of his body
In the warming of the lights
His new age is technology's damnation
His inner depth darkening the lights
Darkening the lights
Born from the water
To run away for ever more
For ever more
BoC sent me here.
new wave at its best
