Song lyrics

This time seems to never change.
The more I give and the less I earn,
Five years since I moved into Rome
Where an empire was born and a god died nearly alone.

The city lights are the only sun I know.
You feel better if they tell you you're different,
You are unique but there's something you should know:
You are not enough for this city, not enough for this world.

If I'm not good enough,
Just tell me who deserves
To live this life alone?
This life alone...

This pain seems to never end,
The more I love and the more it hurts.
Five years to make my dreams come real
And just one second to erase them all.
Those empty streets were the only land I knew,
I felt better if they told me I was different.
Was I unique, was there something I should know?
Was I enough for this city and enough for this world?

If I'm not good enough,
Just tell me who deserves
To live this life alone?
Well, if it's not enough,
Just tell me who deserves
To walk this path alone?
This life alone...

This pain seems to never end.
The more it hurts the less I pretend
To be here, to be alive still.
If I can't face this, I wonder who ever will.
The city lights are the only sun I know,
I feel better now, I know that I'm different.

If I'm not good enough,
Just tell me who deserves
To live this life alone?
Well, if it's not enough,
Just tell me who deserves
To walk this path alone?
Well, if it's not enough...
