about

IL SILENZIO speaks of disappointed friendships and those that for one reason or another end up sometimes unintentionally.
Have you ever met people who have meant so much to you at certain times in life and who now have almost trouble greeting you?
Or have you ever betrayed someone you were very close to, or vice versa someone who betrayed your trust? This is a relationship in "suspended", unresolved, incomplete, that somehow makes you suffer and feel more alone.
Il Silenzio speaks of this: the emptiness that has been inserted into a beautiful relationship that made you feel good and that has now vanished.
In the end, however, there is a message that gives the hope of a reconciliation: "E' difficile, ma siamo qui! E non importa più... (what happened)"

I spoke of friendship "suspended" and maybe it is more of a Freudian lapsus: the artist who collaborated is Simone Momo of RIVA, Neapolitan band, the city also known for suspended coffees. And Naples is also the place where I shot the video of the song (in full flâneur style) wandering around the city but especially among the wonderful people of this wonderful city.

lyrics

Io non so quando abbiamo smesso di essere complici
non so
e di essere anche amici
perchè il silenzio a volte è più loquace di certe parole
e ferisce anche di più di quelle più rabbiose
perché comunque, arrivano dal cuore

Sembra facile, non è così?
E non importa se, sei stato lontano da me

Io non so se ti ho deluso, o più semplicemente
è la distanza fra i nostri pensieri oscurati dalla frenesia
di questa vita mia
amico dal guscio vetrato, ma dal sentimento puro
ormai contaminato

Sembra facile riprendersi
dimenticare che sei stato lontano da me

Siam fatti come il vento
che non sai mai dove finirà
ma credimi, tra poco passerà

E’ difficile ma siamo qui
e non importa, non importa più
