Bacon Lyrics in English by Francesco Renga
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Bacon by Francesco Renga from Italian to English.
Come va, come va?
How's it going, how's it going?
Mi domando se sei sempre quella cosa là
I wonder if you're still that thing there
Come va, come va?
How's it going, how's it going?
Ti credevo la mia luce, poi mi sono perso
I thought you were my light, then I got lost
Ho mangiato le tue ansie come fosse bacon
I ate your anxieties like it was bacon
Ho cercato di capirti, come darti torto
I tried to understand you, how could I blame you?
Ti chiedevo 'come stai?'
I asked you "how are you?"
Dicevi 'tutto a posto'
You said "everything's fine"
Dice tutto passa
It says everything passes
Quando sei te stesso, io che mi detesto
When you're yourself, me who hates myself
Mi ritrovo smesso
I find myself worn out
Chiuso dentro queste cuffie
Closed inside these headphones
Mentre ascolto un pezzo
While I listen to a song
Odio questo treno
I hate this train
Corre sempre troppo
It always runs too fast
I miei occhi sono rossi perché ho dentro un fuoco
My eyes are red because I have a fire inside
Come va, come va?
How's it going, how's it going?
Mi domando se sei ancora quella cosa là
I wonder if you're still that thing there
Come va, come va?
How's it going, how's it going?
I tuoi fianchi stretti, le mie mani grandi
Your narrow hips, my big hands
I tuoi occhi azzurri sembrano diamanti
Your blue eyes look like diamonds
Non sono niente per te
I'm nothing to you
E la pizza fredda con le sigarette
And the cold pizza with the cigarettes
Le vacanze al mare, noi due solamente
The beach holidays, just the two of us
Non sono niente per te
I'm nothing to you
Niente per me
Nothing for me
Ti ricordi il giorno in cui sei cambiata
Do you remember the day you changed?
Tutto intorno a te non era più la stessa cosa
Everything around you wasn't the same anymore
E Natale si capiva che era fatto apposta
And at Christmas, you could tell it was done on purpose
Ma il tuo cuore ti diceva che era ancora festa
But your heart told you it was still a party
Notte è quando in questo posto chiudono le casse
Night is when they close the tills in this place
Giorno è quando è troppo tardi per svegliarmi presto
Day is when it's too late for me to wake up early
Odio questo letto freddo senza averti addosso
I hate this cold bed without having you on me
Che quando ti abbracciavo era mare mosso
That when I hugged you it was rough sea
I tuoi fianchi stretti
Your narrow hips
Le mie mani grandi
My big hands
I tuoi occhi azzurri sembrano diamanti
Your blue eyes look like diamonds
Non sono niente per te
I'm nothing to you
Non sono niente per me
I'm nothing to myself
E le mani fredde sotto le coperte
And the cold hands under the blankets
E le cose dette senza dire niente
And the things said without saying anything
Non sono niente per te
I'm nothing to you
Non sono niente per me
I'm nothing to myself
Come va, come va?
How's it going, how's it going?
Mi domando se sei ancora quella cosa là
I wonder if you're still that thing there
Come va, come va?
How's it going, how's it going?
Mi credevo la tua luce poi mi sono spento
I thought I was your light, then I went out

detesto — I detest / I hate
Detesto means "I detest" or "I hate." It's a strong verb that conveys intense dislike or self-loathing, which is quite impactful in a song.
In the lyrics, the singer says, "io che mi detesto" (I who detest myself). This reveals a deep sense of internal conflict and self-criticism, making it a poignant and memorable word that stands out from more common expressions of sadness or regret.
