Really Pretty Short And Poofy Formal Dresses

Enough! Now is the time to let it fly I

Text written and performed by Cesare Tramontano



Young ...
with the broken careers even before birth. With
desires crushed by modern society
we cut the wings of departure
who takes us for invalid unable to hear and want
even if the facts deny the obvious.
We are destined to suffer a decline that we will sink into a deep pit
which we will be unable to leave.
Compelled to interpret all that we receive NO from society
as "3" to school with the sole hope that one day everything will stop, but with the
feeling deep down inside that it will never end.
Forced to work at the plant after years and years of study
because multinationals that we use up our bones

like puppets as if they were only able to press a button for eight

hours a day while our thoughts, our desires, our dreams and run elsewhere
fluctuate in a huge void that will never cease to exist, but
the time has come to say BASTA!
BASTA! To all those who consider us to zero
BASTA! To those who hinder our ideas
BASTA! To those who think we are
only able to drink and cause accidents on the road.
And finally, BASTA! those who break our wings.
Now it's time we caught our flight.

(Cesare, 17)
