Lyrics

Pasolini is me
Accattone you'll be
I entered nothing
And nothing entered me
Till you came with the key
And you did your best, but...

As I live and breathe
You have killed me
You have killed me
Yes, I walk around - somehow
But you have killed me
You have killed me

Piazza Cavour - what's my life for?

Visconti is me
Magnani you'll never be
I entered nothing
And nothing entered me
Till you came with the key
And you did your best, but...

As I live and breathe
You have killed me
You have killed me
Yes, I walk around - somehow
But you have killed me
You have killed me

Who am I that I come to be here?

As I live and breathe
You have killed me
You have killed me
Yes, I walk around - somehow
But you have killed me
You have killed me

And there is no point saying this again
And there is no point saying this again
But I forgive you, I forgive you
Always I do forgive you...
