Ci sono sere in cui capisci che ti manca qualcosa. Ci sono sere in cui capisci che forse sei tu ad avere qualcosa che non va. Ci sono sere in cui finisci per non capirci più un cazzo.

“I, uh, you know. Music has always been everything to me. It’s a cliche thing to say but it’s the truth, so I don’t know what else to say. Music has always been my escape, it’s been a way to get out of my own head, my way to get out of school, to get my head off work, to get me through my fears, my anxiety. You know? Music has always been the thing that’s worked for me. And it’s made me feel free. And, uh, I never thought that, I honestly never thought that I would be here, standing on a stage in front of you. I’d always come to shows and I’d always be, you know, I’d be that guy. My eyes would just be locked and I just, I just want to say that now that we’re here, there’s nothing different, we’re very regular people, there’s nothing special about us as music has nothing to do with us. It’s a way for us to connect with people… And all of us are complete strangers and yet I feel very connected to you. Music is the only thing that can do that. My only hope tonight, all that I hope tonight is for you to be free, that your mind is clear, that you can escape everything from outside these walls and just feel completely free.”

“Can I tell you something, Reading? Can I make a confession to you? I had somebody tell me that, the other day, that I say ‘thank you’ too much at shows. And it’s not rock and roll and I was thinking about that and to be honest with you today I was feeling anxious and thought that I needed to come right out there and say nothing on the microphone and just play our music. And I’m thinking about that and I just feel conflicted on stage today 'cause I don’t feel like that’s authentic for me and I don’t really give a damn what anybody says about saying 'thank you’. Two years ago we were playing in tiny bars for six hour gigs. 5 years ago we were playing in tiny bars. There’s bands that are out there today that have been doing that for 10 years. My wife did that for 10 years and she still is. And she’s in a band... So I don’t really give a damn. I am just gonna say 'thank you’ 'cause this is incredible to play for all these people. If that makes me not as rock and roll as the people that will come on stage then I don’t really give a damn. This is who I am, so I hope that you will just accept me for that. I love you UK. This has been a place we’ve wanted to come since we started the band. I wrote it on a white board 5 years ago that we would come overseas and we would be able to play around the world and that was our dream. And it’s a cheesy thing to say but I don’t care 'cause here we are, we’re doing it and this is just incredible so THANK YOU.That’s what I wanted to say. THANK YOU.”

Bring Me The Horizon - Drown

26. La Scala. Succede alle volte di ritrovarsi ad accantonare un problema perché non hai né il coraggio, né la voglia per affrontarlo. Certo, noi continuiamo per la nostra strada, ma lui non farà altro che seguirci. Più passi in avanti faremo, più lui crescerà. E poi, basterà un niente per incontrarlo di nuovo lungo il nostro cammino. Un ricordo. Una canzone. Una foto. Una chiamata… E niente, di colpo, ti ritrovi davanti ad una Montagna. Lì, che si fa? Si cambiano di detti: “Se la Montagna va da Maometto, Maometto… LA SCALA!”
