Lyrics
Standing brave with my legs shaking
From inside comes my strength gently
Cause I was not born to sit in the outskirts
I’ll write my pain in an ice cube
Because almost isn’t good enough, good enough
Give them all you’ve got and they’ll take even more even more
They will suck your soul slowly, slowly
Quando quasi non basta
I wandered why my star wouldn’t light
When alight wasn’t bright
When bright it just wouldn’t shine
They say you can’t push the river
When the storm has gone and the sun has come out
I hope I’ll remember just the good times
Waiting for the summer that I yearned so long for
I’ll sip the fruit of my learning
Because almost isn’t good enough, good enough
Give them all you’ve got and they’ll take even more even more
They will suck your soul slowly, slowly
Quando quasi non basta
Standing strong with my legs shaking
from inside comes my strength gently
Almost is not good enough
Almost is not good enough
