Cicatrici Lyrics (English Translation) – Tony Boy

Cicatrici (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
A casual greeting, checking in with someone.

[Chorus]
He’s noticing someone familiar in the middle of his emotional scars, the tough experiences he’s been through. The feelings he carries aren’t heroic sacrifices, just sadness he has to live with. There’s a mix of curiosity and secrecy—he wonders what would happen if he got close, like with a kiss, and who would know about it. He’s settled in a place between right and wrong, having grown through both sides of life. He’s found his own strength to let go of negativity and fight back when he needs to. And yet, life brings him back to that familiar spot where he always seems to cross paths with this person again, like meeting in the same bar repeatedly.

[Verse 1]
He’s carrying heavy emotions, almost like drinking a personal hell in a glass, feeling the coldness and loneliness of life. Despite this, he connects with someone who completes his missing half, sharing moments that feel sharp and intense, almost like tiny knives of anxiety. He’s independent, doing things his own way, not following what society says he should do. The other person can teach him many things, but not how to live his life exactly. Underneath his confident words, he’s still fully himself, even in abstract or weird ways, like when he jokingly imagines flowers growing from his nose. The other person notices his quirks and mistakes with a mix of curiosity and affection, almost enjoying his flaws. He’s been nurturing these emotions and experiences for a while, inviting the other person to explore them too, offering a sense of intimacy and shared understanding.

[Chorus]
He’s seeing this person again among all his personal scars and struggles, realizing these emotions aren’t noble sacrifices, just sadness that lingers. There’s a hesitation about intimacy and who might know about it if he gets close, like giving a kiss. He’s firmly planted between good and evil, having grown through both light and dark experiences. He’s built up strength to let go of past pains and confront life boldly. And there’s a sense of timing, knowing when to act and when to wait. Yet, despite everything, fate or habit brings him back to that same familiar place, meeting this person again at the same bar, as if drawn together repeatedly.

[Verse 2]
Today feels gloomy and empty; he can’t even find the sun, symbolizing lack of energy or hope. His emotions and thoughts are in constant conflict, leading him to isolate himself, trying to manage the inner explosion. For the person he cares about, words feel inadequate, so he offers his heart instead. That person wants to connect deeply, wanting constant closeness that’s intense and nonstop. He keeps going in circles—wanting to leave or escape, but also wanting to stay and succeed in life. He pays attention to the small details of his life but still struggles to get everything right. Little things easily frustrate him, but a simple hug from this person instantly calms him. Even his cold heart can warm up with the right affection. He’s also dealing with external stimulants or coping mechanisms, which give him energy but also show the chaotic side of his life.

[Chorus]
He again notices this person amid the scars and struggles he carries, acknowledging that his pain isn’t heroic, just part of life. He’s cautious about intimacy and who might know, keeping a little secrecy around his feelings. He’s rooted firmly in the space between good and bad, having grown and learned from both. He’s found inner strength to confront challenges, let go, or fight back when needed. Timing matters—sometimes he waits, sometimes he acts. Despite everything, the cycle continues, bringing him back to the same place, crossing paths with this person in the bar once more, as if their connection keeps drawing them together.
