Con te ero immobile 
Oggi ti vedrò di colpo sparire 
Fra la folla te ne andrai 
Mi sono rotto delle scuse 
E sono stanco dei tuoi guai 
Hai detto che non vuoi più 
Camminare accanto a me, accanto a me 
Ora questa casa mi sembra più grande 
Illumino ogni angolo 
Dipingo la noia, rivesto la stanza 
Di quel che d'ora in poi sarò 
Non mi fermerai né adesso, né mai 
Perché per troppe volte ho scelto te 
Non sono immobile 
Grazie per avermi fatto male, non lo dimenticherò 
Grazie io riparto 
Solo controvento ricomincerò 
Giro nel centro e faccio la spesa 

Non mi sento fragile 
Cento grammi di sole 
Non serve l'amore 
Se poi diventa cenere 
Non mi prenderai 
Né adesso, né mai 
Perché per troppo tempo 
Ho scelto te 
Dimenticando me 
Grazie per avermi fatto male 
Non lo dimenticherò 
Grazie io riparto 
Solo controvento ricomincerò 
Sarò pronto a correre per me 
E tu ferma immobile 
Grazie per avermi fatto male 
Non lo dimenticherò 
Sento nelle vene vita che si muove ricomincerò 
Sarò pronto a correre per me
Per me
