Discover the story of the song > Verit Da Marciapiede – Adriano Celentano

The protagonist is feeling like he's saying a prayer and people just pass by without paying attention to him. He watches them from the sidewalk and can recognize people by their shoes. He talks to them without asking them anything. He also has a true friend that stays by his side and warms him up like a glass of wine. Love ignites a fire inside of him and flows through his veins. Life becomes a game when people love him. The truth is in his heart and not in the noise around him. He smokes a joint and watches it burn his fingers. He dreams about the same woman he's known for a long time. The only time he hears her voice is when he smokes. He can't read the newspaper because the words are too small for him and he doesn't trust it. He picks them up, covers himself with them and sleeps. He is happy and forgets everything that weighs on him. He sleeps like those millions of words that smell like oil. He sleeps and he's happy in an enchanted forest while others stay tired on the pavement, sad and shallow. They are society.
