CONTENTS SUMMARY
È Sempre Bello (It’s Always Beautiful)
È quasi sempre bello se dal buio arriva il giorno
È bello se le nuvole sono solo un contorno
A volte è bello avere diciott'anni
È bello se mi chiami, è bello se rimani
It's almost always beautiful when day comes out of the dark
It's beautiful when the clouds are just an outline
Sometimes it's beautiful to be eighteen
It's beautiful when you call me, it's beautiful if you stay

È Sempre Bello is an upbeat love letter to the little things that keep life sparkling. Coez flips through a mental photo album of everyday scenes — the dawn after a dark night, a cheap hangover on a day off, the thrill of new 20-euro bills, Milan lit by morning sun. Every line celebrates how ordinary moments become extraordinary when you share them with someone special or when you choose to notice their quiet magic.

The chorus, “Oggi voglio andare al mare anche se non è bello,” is a playful manifesto: go to the beach even if the weather is gloomy, forget the umbrella when it rains, dive in anyway. The song says that beauty is not perfection, it is the attitude we bring. Relationships can break and be rebuilt, people can be together or happily alone, skies can be cloudy or clear — life is “quasi sempre bello” when you decide to see it that way.

La Tua Canzone (Your Song)
Amare te è facile
Come odiare la polizia
Sai, le canzoni non vanno mai via
Questa è la tua, sarà sempre qua
Loving you is easy
Like hating the cops
You know, songs never fade
This one's yours, it'll always be here

Coez turns a rollercoaster relationship into a heartfelt souvenir in La Tua Canzone. The singer admits that loving you is easy while loving me is hard, flipping affection and insecurity back and forth like the tide he sings about. Even when feelings swing between love and hate, he promises a constant companion: this very song. Just as songs never disappear, his melody will always be waiting for those moments when the listener needs comfort, revenge, or simply a reminder of what once was.

Rich images color the track. A lonely bouquet on the passenger seat, an ocean of endless waves, a world of ticking bombs… they all echo how clumsy we can be with words and how fragile love can feel. Yet Coez suggests that when speeches fail or truths blur, music steps in, ready to bathe, warm, and protect. La Tua Canzone is therefore both apology and love letter, carving out a safe place where memories survive long after the last argument fades.

Domenica (Sunday)
Vorrei fosse domenica
Andare in bici senza mani
Una risata isterica
E sconvolgere i tuoi piani
I wish it were Sunday
Ride a bike with no hands
A hysterical laugh
And mess up your plans

Coez’s “Domenica” is a love-soaked daydream about turning every ordinary moment into the light-hearted magic of a Sunday. The singer wishes every day felt like that slow, carefree morning when you balance on a bike with no hands, laugh so hard it feels a little crazy, and toss every plan out the window just to stay with someone special. With images of empty stadiums, winding highways, and hands slicing through the wind, Coez paints freedom as something simple: two people side by side, playing at life like children who haven’t yet learned to worry.

Yet the song isn’t only sweet nostalgia; it also winks at real-world imperfections. Parents can be tense, clocks keep ticking, and the sun will set on even the most perfect ride. By wishing “vorrei fosse domenica” (I wish it were Sunday) again and again, Coez reminds us that the magic comes from choosing to live in the moment despite life’s little annoyances. The result is a feel-good anthem that invites listeners to loosen their grip on routine, breathe, and let love turn any day into a never-ending Sunday.

Le Luci Della Città (The City Lights)
È un mondo fatto per due
Come le confezione dello yogurt
Dentro l'amore c'è una punta d'odio e viceversa
E ti sei persa
It's a world made for two
Like yogurt packs
Inside love there's a hint of hate, and vice versa
And you got lost

Coez invites us onto the back of a midnight motorbike where the city lights sparkle like possibility. In Le Luci Della Città he pictures love as something sold in twin packs, “a world made for two,” sweet but with a tang of resentment hidden in the mix. Racing past taxis and skyscrapers, he wraps his partner in his jacket, daring both of them to “jump into the void” together. The song’s imagery—water splashes, neon glows, cold night air—turns an ordinary ride into a cinematic adventure and lets us feel the electric thrill of being inseparable partners in crime.

Beneath the adrenaline, though, pulses a quieter question: where is home if not inside this relationship? While Coez marvels at the skyline, he confesses that the view feels empty unless she’s by his side. Each chorus circles back to insecurity—“When everyone else leaves, will you stay with me?”—capturing the delicate balance between freedom and commitment. It’s a love song for anyone who has ever stared across a glittering city and realized that no light shines brighter than the promise of someone who chooses to stay.

Come Nelle Canzoni (Like In The Songs)
Con te ho imparato il termine mancarsi
Perdersi davvero senza ritrovarsi
Nella notte brilli anche da cento passi
Io mi incazzo e ridi ma con gli occhi bassi
With you I learned the word "missing each other"
Really getting lost without finding each other
In the night you shine even from a hundred steps
I get pissed and you laugh but with your eyes down

"Come Nelle Canzoni" is a cinematic rewind of a love story that was messy, electric, and impossible to forget. Coez sings from the passenger seat of an old memory, where late–night metro rides, whispered Beastie Boys lyrics, and secret kisses behind fogged-up windows rush past like streetlights. The couple have tasted every flavor of feeling – from laughter that bursts at 100 steps away to angry tears that fall at arm’s length – and now they are stuck between holding on and letting go. Coez admits he gave both his best and worst, but the mix of reckless youth, pure affection, and shared mistakes is precisely what made their bond feel larger than life, just like in the songs they grew up with.

Under the sing-along chorus lies a question many lovers face: what do you do when the magic remains but the rhythm is off-beat? He praises her “anima pura” while confessing his own rough edges, recognizing that their wild ride might be over yet still refusing to let anyone else define what they had. The track is a bittersweet anthem for anyone who has ever broken up but still believes that every laugh, fight, and fearless decision was worth it. It reminds us that sometimes “only the best” is not enough – it is the chaotic mix of highs and lows that writes the song of a relationship.

La Musica Non C'è (There Is No Music)
Volevo dirti tante cose, ma non so da dove iniziare
Ti vorrei viziare
Farti scivolare addosso questo mondo infame
Mettermi fra te e cento lame
I wanted to tell you so many things, but I don't know where to start
I'd like to spoil you
Let this rotten world slide right off you
Put myself between you and a hundred blades

Picture a sultry summer night in Italy: the lights are too bright, the heat keeps you wide-awake, and your heart is thumping like una scuola di danza nello stomaco. That is the backdrop of “La Musica Non C’è” (“There Is No Music”), where Coez pours out a rush of feelings for someone he wants to spoil, protect, and sweep away to the sea. He imagines slipping between them and “a hundred blades,” bringing the entire ocean to their doorstep, and letting them know they are so captivating that even silence starts to groove.

Beneath the playful imagery lies a bittersweet truth. The singer’s words stumble because emotions beat louder than any melody, yet those same emotions risk burning out once daylight—and doubt—creep in. By the final lines, the possibility of going separate ways hovers in the air, reminding us how rare it is to truly “find each other.” Coez captures that electric moment when love turns the mundane into music, even if the track might end sooner than we hope.

Lovebars
È inutile che mandi messaggini
Quali massaggini, quali passeggini
Quando passi gira il mondo
Quando non ci sei si ferma, tocco il fondo
It's useless that you send little messages
What massages, what strollers
When you pass, the world spins
When you're not here, it stops, I hit rock bottom

Coez and Frah Quintale trade verses about a relationship that runs on chemistry more than words. The opening lines shrug off texting and gestures ("It's useless that you send little messages") because the real connection is physical and immediate — she changes the room the moment she walks in.

The chorus is a disarming confession: they know the lines are a little cheesy, a little too honest, but they blame it on being in love and ask her not to overanalyze it — it's just a song.

The second verse turns more protective, referencing a controlling ex and promising loyalty and support through hard times, before the song pivots to its emotional core: a memory of someone who came in confident and left barefoot and quietly, someone unforgettable. The repeated closing lines ("I think I've never seen someone like you... it hurts when you leave") land as a bittersweet coda to what started as playful flirting.

Occhi Rossi (Red Eyes)
Ti colava il trucco e non capivo perché
Io fumavo, gli occhi rossi li avevi te
Darò un cinque al prossimo, il prossimo che
Dice che non vali, che ne sa di te
Your makeup was running and I didn't understand why
I was smoking, you were the one with red eyes
I'll give a high five to the next one, the next one who
Says you're not worth it, what do they know about you

"Occhi Rossi" is Coez's picture of staying up with someone through heartbreak.

It opens on a small, specific detail: running mascara, a cigarette, red eyes that give the crying away before any words do. From there the song turns into reassurance. The narrator tells this person to ignore whoever said they weren't worth it, and promises to write their own words and carry that love somewhere else once the sun comes up.

The chorus repeats one idea from two sides: everyone else is asleep, but the narrator is the "alarm clock" still awake for them, close by even while knowing this person isn't truly alone in the world, just alone in this particular ache.

By the end the lyrics dissolve into wordless "ah" and "na na na" lines, letting the melody hold what's left unsaid.

Margherita
Avevo tutto in mano
Mi chiedi: 'Tutto che?'
Te che mi cercavi
Io che stavo fuori con le tasche vuote
I had everything in hand
You ask me: 'All that?'
You who were looking for me
Me standing outside with empty pockets

Coez's "Margherita" paints a picture of a complicated relationship, filled with both deep connection and painful distance. The singer reflects on a person who could fill a void inside him "like the sea," a powerful and overwhelming feeling. He felt he had "everything" when he had them, even when his own pockets were empty.

However, this same sea that fills the void also becomes a barrier. It's a force "between the head and the heart" that keeps them apart, never bringing one to the other. The song is full of conflicting emotions: the image of a lover waiting in a car with the engine running, claiming to be fine alone while shedding a tear, captures this perfectly. The lyrics explore themes of regret over past mistakes, the pressures of being in the "spotlights," and the wish that the other person never gets hurt, because falling is a normal part of life.

Ciao (Bye)
Ho smesso col credere ai grandi
O almeno di credere che esistano
Quando ho smesso con il Crystal Ball
Non do più peso alle parole di una rivista
I've stopped believing the grown-ups
Or at least believing they exist
When I quit Crystal Ball
I don't care about a magazine's words anymore

In Ciao, Italian artist Coez flips through the pages of his own self-improvement checklist. He has quit believing in “grown-ups,” shelved childish toy dreams, abandoned sugary magazine gossip and even swapped post-gig rum for clearer mornings. The song feels like a confessional mixtape where each verse ticks off another vice he has left behind—crystal ball illusions, reckless nights, unhealthy relationships, empty fame. Every “I’ve stopped” is Coez trying to climb higher, only to admit with a laugh that once you are already on the ground, you can’t fall any further.

But there is one habit he cannot kick: her. The chorus circles back to a bittersweet greeting—“Ciao, ci vediamo, come va?”—as if they keep bumping into each other on life’s tangled streets. No matter how hard he tries to walk away, his roads curve toward her and hers toward him. The song captures that mysterious gravity between two people who should have moved on, yet remain cosmically looped together. By the end, Coez stops asking “why,” accepting that some connections resist every effort to quit them, making Ciao a relatable anthem for anyone who has sworn off everything except the love they still cannot leave.
