Appassiscono comes from the verb appassire, which means to wither, fade, or dry up. It is an evocative and poetic word typically used to describe dying flowers or declining beauty.
In this emotionally charged song, the band uses it to create a tragic metaphor: "Come le rose rosse appassiscono, così il tuo sorriso" (Just as red roses wither, so does your smile). This striking imagery perfectly captures the feeling of fading love and heartbreak.
Frustration, sleepless nights, and storm-cloud emotions swirl at the heart of “Saranno Giorni.” The singer feels their relationship cracking under the weight of relentless tension. Every image in the lyrics is dramatic: violent clouds crash down, red roses wither, and even autumn trees shed their leaves. Through these vivid pictures, the vocalist paints a future split in two colors—bright, self-focused days for “me” and cold, rainy days for “you.”
Yet there is no outright hatred—only a dark, almost theatrical acceptance. The repeated “non sento nessun rancore” (I feel no rancor) suggests the anger has burned out, leaving resignation in its place. The eerie invitation, “Prepara le valigie, amore… vieni giù all’Inferno insieme a me,” seals the mood: if love is doomed, they might as well descend into the abyss together. In short, the song is a bittersweet anthem about love’s demise, painted with bold, gothic strokes that make heartbreak sound both cinematic and strangely inviting.
