Eros Ramazzotti, Piero Cassano - Eros Ramazzotti, Adelio Cogliati

(unofficial english version)
THEY ARE THE NEW HEROES
BOYS THAT FACE THE HARD
LIFE WITH RAGE IN THEIR FISTS
THEY ARE NEW HEROES BECAUSE
IT’S NOT EASY TO FIGHT AGAINST
FEAR ON A DAILY BASIS

IT’S NOT OK TO SEE
PEOPLE STILL SUFFERING
AROUND THE WORLD
AND TO SEE FRIENDS
BURNING THEIR AGE
ON THE RESERVE-BANKS
WHEN THEY GO TO THE LIMIT

THE OUTCRY YOU HEAR
IS NOT THE WIND, BUT MANY
VOICES IN MOVEMENT

AND YOU ARE NEEDED
PEOPLE WITH A HEART ARE NEEDED
AND YOU’LL BE AN EXTRA
PRESENCE THAT WILL GIVE
US MORE STRENGTH

UNDER THIS SKY
(THIS SKY)
THIS HUGE SHEET
(IN GREY)
WHERE TOO MANY PEOPLE
CANNOT EXPRESS THEMSELVES
KNOW THAT THERE IS NO
(NO, THERE’S NOT)
ONE SINGLE SILENCE
(JUST ONE)
THAT MUSIC CANNOT FILL UP

THE WAVE YOU SEE IS NOT
A RIVER, BUT MANY ARMS
LIFTED UP TOGETHER

AND WE’RE THE NEW HEROES
THOSE THAT WILL NEVER BE WARRIORS
WE SEARCH FOR THE EXAMPLE
OF LOYALTY THAT WILL
SERVE TOMORROW

THE WAVE YOU SEE IS NOT
A RIVER, BUT MANY ARMS
LIFTED UP TOGETHER

PEOPLE OF MY GENERATION
THE LAST SONG HASN’T BEEN SAID
