Verse 1

I walk around my city and the wind blows hard

I left everything behind and the sun on the horizon

I see the houses from afar, they've closed the doors

But luckily I have her hand and her red cheeks

She picked me up from the ground covered in thorns

With bites of a thousand snakes, stopped by the coils

She didn't listen to those bastards and their curse

With one gaze, she convinced me to pick up and leave

Because this is a journey that nobody before has made

Alice, her wonders and the mad hatter

We'll walk this street and I'll never be tired

Until time will bring white to your hair

Because I've a paper left in my hand and half a cigarette

Let's stay a little longer, there's no rush

Because I've a sentence written in my head but I've never said it

Because life without you cannot be perfect

Chorus 1

So Marlena come back home

Because the cold is felt here

Or: Because it's getting cold here

So Marlena come back home

Because I don't want to wait anymore

So Marlena come back home

Cold is felt here

So Marlena come back home

Because I'm afraid of disappearing

Verse 2

And the sky slowly slowly here becomes transparent

The sun illuminates the weaknesses of the people

A salty tear wets my cheek while

She caresses my face with her hand gently

With blood on my hands I will climb all the peaks

I want to arrive where the human eye stops

To learn to forgive all my faults

Because even angels sometimes have fear of death

Or: Because even the angels are sometimes afraid of death

Because I've a paper left in my hand and half a cigarette

Let's run away from those who have too much thirst for revenge

From this mainland because now I feel it tight

Or: From this still Earth because it oppresses me

Yesterday I was quiet because today I'll be the storm

Chorus 2

So Marlena come back home

Because the cold is felt here

So Marlena come back home

Because I don't want to wait anymore

So Marlena come back home

Because the cold is felt here

So Marlena come back home

Because I don't want anymore

Verse 3

Before you I was just a fool, now let me tell you

I had a creased jacket and I had cuts on my wrists

Today I feel blessed and I don't find anything to add

This city will show when it sees us coming

I was balancing between being a victim and being a judge

It was a thrill that brings light into darkness

And it frees you from these shiny, lucid chains

And my doubt, if they were dead or reborn

Chorus 3

So Marlena come back home

Because the cold is felt here

So Marlena come back home

Because I don't want to wait anymore

So Marlena come back home

Because the cold is felt here

So Marlena come back home

Because I don't want to disappear anymore

So Marlena come back home

Because the cold is felt here

So Marlena come back home

Because I'm afraid of disappearing

Did you like this lyrics translation?

brivido — shiver / thrill

Brivido literally means "shiver" or "thrill," a word you might use for a chill from the cold or a jolt of excitement. It's a wonderfully expressive word that captures a physical sensation.

In the song, Måneskin uses it poetically: "Era un brivido che porta la luce dentro le tenebre" (It was a thrill that brings the light into the darkness). Here, it's not a shiver of fear, but the electrifying feeling of change and salvation. It's a powerful metaphor for an experience so intense it can illuminate the darkest of times.

This song is a desperate and beautiful plea for someone named Marlena to come home. The singer feels lost without her, singing, "Quindi Marlena torna a casa / Che il freddo qua si fa sentire" (So Marlena, come home / Because the cold is making itself felt here). He's afraid of fading away completely without her by his side. She is the one who saved him when he was at his lowest, covered in thorns and snakebites. She gave him the courage to start a new life and a new journey, and he promised to walk with her until their hair turned white.

But who is Marlena? For Måneskin, she's more than just a person. Marlena is their muse, a symbol of freedom, creativity, and life itself. When the singer describes his past as being "solo un pazzo" (just a madman) with a crumpled jacket and cuts on his wrists, he's talking about a life without this inspiration. Marlena is the force that brought "luce dentro le tenebre" (light into the darkness) and freed him. So when he begs her to come back, he's calling out for the very spirit that makes him feel alive and able to create.
