The lyrics are soaked in poetic imagery in which verses are extremely close to poetry and succeed in blending perfectly with the music. Jessica Einaudi’s voice sings about a confusing epic, full of pain and shadows, queens and poison, immersed in a melancholic acoustic that sometimes yields to precise electronics and insistent rhythmics.
