Lyrics by Beatrice Allegranti

I was hit hard by this
I was hit hard by this
I wasn’t really expecting it
I had a strong reaction
Emotional
Physical
I was listening
It really touched me in a way I didn’t want it to touch me There are certain parts
I struggled to keep in their place
I don’t want these things to come in
But they strongly came in
They were always there
They’ve always been there
Bodily trigger
An acceleration
A bodily acceleration
I would like to move
I need to play
I need to sing
I need to dance
I need to do.
When I was a young child in school
At assembly
I remember the schoolteacher talking about somebody who tried somebody else’s shoes

And became that person for the day
You need to put yourself in somebody’s else’s shoes Try and understand their perspective
Learn how to empathise
It’s something I’ve always had in my mind What other people are thinking
How other people are perceiving
things
What are their motives.
[I’ve been thinking]
about memory and loss
How we actually hold the memory of somebody’s touch inside our body Even though it has enormous meaning
When I think about loss
The loss of someone or something
I go to the
memory of the touch
I feel [it’s] interior[ity]
