COME POLVERE Lyrics Meaning

[Ritornello (Chorus)]
In this part, the singer talks about having a list of things they pretend to solve but haven’t really dealt with. There’s a sense of feeling overwhelmed as they anticipate problems, like the rain, yet the most important thing—the light inside them—is not on that list. They feel surrounded by darkness, and there are too many things they wish to erase, like dust. It’s about frustration with unresolved emotions and the weight of what’s unaddressed.

[Strofa 1 (Verse 1)]
Mara Sattei expresses the feeling of time slipping away, symbolized by the ticking clock, while the “party” (representing a moment of joy) is ending. She feels like she’s losing someone important, dancing in the chaos of life. There’s a quest for inner peace, but she’s uncertain if she’ll achieve it. She wants to focus on things that matter, not just material success, and she protects herself with prayers for herself and those close to her. It’s about seeking balance in a world that feels unstable.

[Ritornello (Chorus)]
The chorus repeats the themes of confusion and inner turmoil. The singer still feels like they have a list of unresolved problems and can’t focus on their inner light. They’re surrounded by uncertainty and don’t know if they should act quickly. The things they want to forget are too overwhelming, and they wish they could just wipe them away. The repetition shows the ongoing struggle to find clarity.

[Strofa 2 (Verse 2)]
Thasup describes the feeling of zig-zagging through life, observing others who seem to be stuck while he’s moving forward. The absence of light in the world feels heavy, and he can’t escape the feeling that something is missing, as even material things like money can’t fill that emptiness. His thoughts are stuck in the past, and he’s unsure about how to make others proud or handle his desires. The verse shifts towards self-reflection, with a desire to leave behind old attachments and find strength elsewhere, symbolized by a trip to Paris.

[Pre-Ritornello (Pre-Chorus)]
Here, the singer reflects on staying passive, holding his hands up in uncertainty until his questions and doubts about life are resolved. The melody helps push away the confusion, as it speaks to them like the answers are simple. It’s about finding comfort in the music and a sense of peace, even though the deeper questions remain unanswered.

[Ritornello (Chorus)]
The chorus repeats again, highlighting the singer’s ongoing battle with unresolved issues and the darkness that clouds their path. The theme of pretending to solve things without truly addressing them continues, and they long for a way to make the overwhelming feelings disappear. It’s a sense of emotional exhaustion, still struggling with what’s inside.

[Outro]
In the outro, the repetition of “Ho una lista” emphasizes that the singer still holds onto the list of unresolved things in their life. It’s a final reminder of the ongoing struggle and the emotional weight they carry, marking a sense of never-ending contemplation about what needs to be dealt with.
