Sia - Alive

Il testo

I was born in a thunderstorm
I grew up overnight
I played alone
I’m playing on my own
I survived
Hey
I wanted everything I never had
Like the love that comes with life
I wore Ambien and I hated it
But I survived…

I had wanted to go to a place where all the demons go
Where the wind don’t change
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
No hope, just lies
And you’re taught to cry in your pillow
But I’ll survive

I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m alive
I’m alive
I’m alive
I’m alive

I found solace in the strangest place
Way in the back of my mind
I saw my life in a stranger’s face
And it was mine

I had wanted to go to a place where all the demons go
Where the wind don’t change
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
No hope, just lies
And you’re taught to cry in your pillow
But I’ll survive

I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m alive
I’m alive
I’m alive
I’m alive

You took it out, but I’m still breathing
You took it out, but I’m still breathing
You took it out, but I’m still breathing
You took it out, but I’m still breathing
You took it out, but I’m still breathing
You took it out, but I’m still breathing
You took it out, but I’m still breathing
You took it out, but I’m still breathing

I had made every single mistake
That you could ever possibly make
I took and I took and I took what you gave
But you never noticed that I was in pain
I knew what I wanted; I went in and got it
Did all the things that you said that I wouldn’t
I told you that I would never be forgotten
I know that’s part of you

And I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m still breathing
I’m alive (You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
(You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
I’m alive (You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
(You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
I’m alive (You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
(You took it out, but I’m still breathing)
I’m alive

I’m alive
I’m alive
I’m alive
I’m alive

TRADUZIONE

Sono nata in una tempesta
Sono cresciuta di notte
Giocavo da sola
Ora sto giocando per conto mio
Sono sopravvissuta
Hey
Volevo tutto ciò che non ho mai avuto
Come l’amore che arriva con la vita
Indossavo l’Ambien e lo odiavo
Ma sono sopravvissuta

Ho voluto andare in un posto dove vanno tutti i demoni
Dove il vento non cambia
E nulla nella terra può crescere
Nessuna speranza, solo bugie
Dove ti insegnano a piangere nel cuscino
Ma sopravviverò

Sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando
Sono viva
Sono viva
Sono viva
Sono viva


Ho trovato consolazione nel posto più strano
Nel profondo della mia mente
Ho visto la mia vita nella faccia di un’estranea
Ed era la mia

Ho voluto andare in un posto dove vanno tutti i demoni
Dove il vento non cambia
E nulla nella terra può crescere
Nessuna speranza, solo bugie
Dove ti insegnano a piangere nel cuscino
Ma sopravviverò



Sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando
Sono viva
Sono viva
Sono viva
Sono viva

Me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando
Me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando
Me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando
Me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando
Me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando
Me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando
Me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando
Me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando


Ho fatto ogni singolo errore
Che si potesse mai fare
Ho preso, ho preso e ho preso quello che mi davi
Ma non hai mai notato che stavo male
Sapevo cosa volevo, sono andata e l’ho preso
Ho fatto tutto quello che hai detto non avrei fatto
Ti ho detto che non sarei mai stata dimenticata
So che è parte di te


E sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando
Sto ancora respirando 
Sono viva (me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando)
(me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando)
Sono viva (me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando)
(me llo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando)
Sono viva (me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando)
(me lo hai portato via, ma sto ancora respirando)
Sono viva

Sono viva
Sono viva
Sono viva
Sono viva
