I was thinking about you
You won't believe it
And in fact you never believe it
You never believe it
We text each other, 'how am I?', 'how are you?', 'fine'
But how did we arrive at a maybe
From forever
And since we broke up
Of instagrammed hearts
But if you click on my photos
You get broken hearts
And I see you again in a hostess
While she takes my bag from boarding
So much the same that while I look into her eyes
It seems like she recognizes me
And it seems done on purpose
Your name is also written on the tag
It's strange when fate
Change destination
And we can't stay together
But without us we no longer feel alive
We who love each other for a thousand reasons
Now let's leave ourselves without reasons
And I swear to you that I don't know
Whether distance divides us or not
We missed you and me
Among my 'I don't know'
And your 'I would like'
Where in the world are you now?
You take too many trips that aren't mine
If I look at that photo I wonder if
Are you looking at the sky or is it looking at you
If I look at that photo I wonder if
Are you looking at the sky or is it looking at you
Or is he looking at you
That he looks at you
You thought of me, who believes it?
We who parted with a 'see you'
I'm full of buts, she's full of herself
Her eyes are too big to just look at me
I don't think about the future
Because the future is already today
And I have to learn to leave my mark
Without leaving my dreams
The hopes with which to energize yourself
The problems to deal with
You who don't even wear a watch
So as not to feel the time getting faster
And you cried looking out there
Among the passing cars
Because you said that certain landscapes
You experience them as states of mind
We talked about everything
But perhaps we have never been able to say 'I love you'
But we would have jumped into the void
Together just to fill it
And I swear to you that I don't know
Whether distance divides us or not
You and I are lost
Among my 'I don't know'
And your 'I would like'
Where in the world are you now?
You take too many trips that aren't mine
If I look at that photo I wonder if
Are you looking at the sky or is it looking at you
If I look at that photo I wonder if
Are you looking at the sky or is it looking at you
Or is he looking at you
That he looks at you

instagrammatiinstagrammed

Instagrammati is a modern, informal Italian word derived from the social media platform Instagram. It means "instagrammed" or "posted on Instagram."

In the song, it refers to "cuori instagrammati" (instagrammed hearts), likely symbolizing public displays of affection or relationship statuses shared online. It's an interesting word because it blends contemporary digital culture with traditional Italian, reflecting how relationships are often portrayed in the digital age.

This song is a heartfelt look back at a love that's ended but hasn't really gone away. The singer, Fred De Palma, finds himself thinking about his ex, remembering how their promise of forever faded into a simple maybe. He paints a picture of modern heartbreak, where their communication is now just shallow text messages and his Instagram posts hide a broken heart behind a public smile. He even sees her everywhere, like in a flight attendant who looks so much like her that she seems to recognize him, a strange twist of fate that makes him question everything.

The chorus captures the core conflict of their relationship: they couldn't be together, but they don't feel alive apart. They got lost somewhere between his uncertainty ("I don't know") and her desires ("I would like"). Now, he wonders where she is in the world, looking at a photo of her and asking a beautiful, poetic question: "Is it you looking at the sky, or is it the sky looking at you?" It's a song about the lingering connection, the what-ifs, and the feeling of being unable to move on from a love that was powerful but impossible.
