You dip the bread
in the empty plate
and you turn off the TV
You open the window
and you look outside
The city waits for you
somewhere
You go out to the street
and you reach the wall
where everybody ends
where the sea begins
You count the steps
going back home
and you turn on the TV
You fall asleep
and when the anthem starts
you go to bed
you go to dream
Moon
Something is happening
I'm feeling that this time
they're leaving me alone
at least alone
like the night
Moon
You wet your face
like any day
and you go without shaving
You buy the paper
and you notice that the world
has changed its face
for better or worse
and you keep walking
and you go to the wall
where everybody ends
where the sea begins
Moon
Something is happening
I'm feeling that this time
they're leaving me alone
at least alone
like the night
Moon
Something is happening
I'm feeling that this time
they're leaving me alone
at least alone
like the night
Night
You dip the bread
in the empty plate
and you turn off the TV
You go out to the street
and you go to the wall
where there's always someone
where the sea begins

SONG MEANING

Muro paints the picture of an ordinary day that quietly reveals an extraordinary inner struggle. The narrator wakes up to an empty plate and a flickering TV, steps outside, then gravitates toward the mysterious wall where the city ends and the sea begins. This physical barrier doubles as an emotional one: it is the point where routine meets possibility, where boredom collides with dreams. Each return home resets the cycle—TV on, sleep, national anthem, repeat—showing how easy it is to get trapped in the sameness of modern life.

Yet the song is far from hopeless. By addressing the moon as a confidant, the singer acknowledges his own loneliness while hinting at silent companionship in the night sky. The wall becomes a gathering spot, a place “where there’s always someone,” suggesting that even at the limits of our routines we can find community and the promise of something new beyond the water. In short, Muro is a poetic reminder that when life feels closed off, a single step past the wall—or a glance up at the moon—can open us to change, connection, and the vast sea of possibilities.
