Quasi Blu Meaning & Lyrics (Tropico)
Davide Petrella describes two kids hugging in a car, showing memories are just torn-up papers. His translation ‘between the stars and the fear of a nuclear bomb’ reveals vulnerability. The poet uses physical imagery like being ‘naked’ to express honest emotion.
Due Ragazzi In Una Macchina Si AbbraccianoTwo kids are hugging in a car.
Sembra Che Abbiano Capito La VelocitaIt seems like they’ve understood what speed is,
Che I Ricordi Sono Multe Che Si Straccianothat memories are just fines you tear up,
Tra Le Stelle E La Paura Dell’atomicabetween the stars and the fear of a nuclear bomb.
Siamo Nati Dalla Luna Come MinimoWe were born from the moon, at the very least,
E Per Questo Sei Sensibile Alla Gravitaand that’s why you’re sensitive to gravity.
Farsi Male Per Il Gusto Per Il BrividoGetting hurt just for the taste and the thrill of it,
Siamo Come Pesci In Un Mare Di Lexotanwe’re like fish in a sea of Lexotan ‘anxiety medication’.
Sembra Di Essere Felici Solo Quando Siamo NudiIt feels like we’re only happy when we’re naked,
Ma Che Paura Sentirsi A Volte Come Tutti Gli Altri Come Sconosciutibut it’s so scary to feel like everyone else, like strangers sometimes.
Scappare Via In Una Notte InfameRunning away on a wretched night,
Ti Vorrei Abbracciare Ma Tu Non Mi AiutiI’d like to hug you, but you won’t help me.
Come Due S#ronzi Che Si Appartengono SoliLike two assh#les who only belong to each other,
E Nel Mio Mare Non Sei Mai Mai Tuand in my sea, it’s never, ever you.
Quasi BluAlmost blue,
E Non Ho Capito Nienteand I haven’t understood a thing.
Tra Le Corse E La Strada La Musica Magari Vuoi Un FiglioBetween the races, the road, and the music, maybe you want a child,
Mentre Ancora Mi Sento Un Palazzo Quando Cade Giuwhile I still feel like a building as it’s falling down.
E Allora Tu Dammi Un Po’ Di Poesia Che Mi F#tta E Che Magari Sto MeglioSo give me some poetry to f#ck me up, maybe I’ll feel better then.
E Nei Tuoi Occhi Non Ci Torno PiuAnd I’m never going back into your eyes.
Che A Sparire Non Sei Mai Mai TuBecause it’s never, ever you who disappears.
Quasi BluAlmost blue,
Quasi Blu Ti Avvicini Alla Nottealmost blue, you’re getting closer to the night,
Ma E Una Luce Diversabut it’s a different kind of light.
Restituendo Alla MusicaGiving back to the music,
Questa Vita E Una Stupidathis life is a foolish thing.
Facciamo Un Patto Di SangueLet’s make a blood pact,
Niente Pensieri Niente Domandeno thoughts, no questions.
Sali Solo Se La Tua Citta Ti Vuole GrandeYou only rise if your city wants you to be great.
Sembra Di Essere Felici Solo Quando Siamo NudiIt feels like we’re only happy when we’re naked,
Ma Che Paura Sentirsi A Volte Come Tutti Gli Altri Come Sconosciutibut it’s so scary to feel like everyone else, like strangers sometimes.
Che Non Lo Sanno Che Si Appartengono SoliWho don’t know they only belong to each other.
E Nel Mio Mare Non Sei Mai Mai TuAnd in my sea, it’s never, ever you.
Quasi BluAlmost blue,
E Non Ho Capito Nienteand I haven’t understood a thing.
Tra Le Corse E La Strada La Musica Magari Vuoi Un FiglioBetween the races, the road, and the music, maybe you want a child,
Mentre Ancora Mi Sento Un Palazzo Quando Cade GiuWhile I still feel like a building as it’s falling down.
E Allora Tu Dammi Un Po’ Di Poesia Che Mi F#tta E Che Magari Sto MeglioSo give me some poetry to f#ck me up, maybe I’ll feel better then.
E Nei Tuoi Occhi Non Ci Torno PiuAnd I’m never going back into your eyes.
E Scusa Ma Ora Era L’ultima Bugia A MetaAnd I’m sorry, but this was the last half-truth.
Tra Noi Due Tra Noi DueBetween the two of us, between the two of us,
Tanto Poi Si Dimenticaanyway, we’ll forget it all soon.
Sono Solo Parole Alla Fine C’hai Ragione TuThey’re only words, in the end, you’re right.
Non Ho Capito NienteI haven’t understood a thing.
Dammi Un Pugno Che PassaGive me a punch so the pain goes away,
Dai Che Magari Sto Zittocome on, maybe then I’ll shut up.
E Nei Tuoi Occhi Non Ci Torno PiuAnd I’m never going back into your eyes.
E A Sparire Non Sei Mai Mai TuAnd it’s never, ever you who disappears.
A Sparire Non Sei Mai Mai TuIt’s never, ever you who disappears.
Quasi BluAlmost blue.
