THIRD INTERMEZZOTHIRD INTERLUDE
  
The dust, the blood, the flies, the smellThe dust, the blood, the flies, the smells
in the streets, in the fields, people are dyingon the street, among the fields, the people who die . . .
and you, you call all this war and you don't know what it isand you, you call it war and don’t know what it is.
and you, you call all this war and you don't understand why.And you, you call it war and don’t explain to yourself why.
  
The fall in your eyes, the summer in your heartAutumn in the eyes, summer in the heart,
the wish for giving, the instinct of takingthe desire to give, the instinct to have . . .
and you, you call all this love and you don't know what it isand you, you call it war and don’t know what it is.
and you, you call all this love and you don't understand why.And you, you call it war and don’t explain to yourself why.
