lyrics

Please don’t speak my blackened name
Please don’t think that things could stay the same
Well I don’t want to cause any pain
So please don’t speak my blackened name

Please don’t cross that river tonight
You stay on your side and I will stay on mine
Well I don’t want to cause any shame
So please don’t speak my blackened name

My blackened name is known around
All the worst parts of town
My blackened name is on the tip of your tongue
And I don’t want us to do what can’t be undone

The smallest step from here and there
It gets much shorter when I see them things you wear
And I don’t want to take any blame
So please don’t speak my blackened name
Please don’t speak my blackened name

(Italian version)

Ti prego non dire
Il mio nome infangato
Per favore non credere
Che le cose rimarranno uguali

Io non vorrei
Causare dolore
Ti prego non dire
Il mio nome infangato

Ti prego non attraversare
Quel fiume stanotte
Resta sulla tua sponda
e restero' sulla mia

Io non vorrei
Causare dolore (le onta, vergogna)
Ti prego non dire
Il mio nome infangato

Il mio nome infangato
è conosciuto
nei peggiori posti
della città

Il mio nome infangato
è sulla punta della tua lingua
e non voglio che facciamo
ciò che non poi rimarra'

Il più piccolo passo
da qui a lì
diventa molto più piccolo
quando vedo le cose che porti

E non voglio
Prendermi la colpa
Ti prego non dire
Il mio nome infangato

Ti prego non dire
Il mio nome infangato
