Velveteen Lyrics

I love this song too! I first heard it from the Ghost in the Shell OST. I think it fits that universe perfectly, and I love the harmony and energy in the feeling of this song. The words are so abstract, but I put the Italian chorus into Google Translate and it seems like it's a love song after all!

e tu sei per me... l’aria che respiro il mio cibo, ciò che osservo magico sei tu! E io sento che... Sono innamorata di emozioni smisurate, infinite ormai!

=

and you are to me ... the air we breath my food, what I observe magic is you! And I feel that ... I'm in love with emotions boundless, endless now!

Incredible!
