Ah, ah

What you feel for me, you don't feel for me, ah, ah

I love you because I took some stuff and I feel high for you

And I know that I won't recover

But you'll kill me when I die, when I die

And I can't look at you anymore now

As you spin on that pole like a music box

Like a music box

When you pass by everyone's looking up

Graceful on those Prada heels

Made of various goods

A legendary c*nt

Halfway between a rare commodity and a mercenary

And many have already fallen for it

I wonder, baby, how the f*ck can you help me

If I can't talk to you and you can't talk to me

Because you have a dress so tight it takes both our breaths away

And with that body, that I look at those eyes, it's too much

But I can't get past them and I can't even look at the bill

And meeting you has destroyed and saved me, it's the truth

And that you're halfway between a fairy and a destiny

What you feel for me, you don't feel for me (ah, ah)

I love you because I took some stuff and I feel high for you

And I know that I won't recover

But you'll kill me when I die, when I die

And I can't look at you anymore now

As you spin on that pole like a music box

Like a music box

My thoughts have taken precedence

Or rather, no, they've taken up residence

And I can't resist

Now that your lightness weighs on me

And I put it in sixth gear, I need to stay calm

I only have you in my head, I need to think of something else

That it's just a bad trip and it's harmless

But I crash into your eyes with every gaze I meet

Where are your hands (your hands)

I'm walking between two seas (between two seas)

We were damn alike like two bitter drops

What you feel for me, you don't feel for me

I love you because I took some stuff and I feel high for you

And I know that I won't recover

But you'll kill me when I die, when I die

And I can't look at you anymore now

As you spin on that pole like a music box

Like a music box

What I feel for you, I don't feel because

The effect wore off in bed and now that

I don't think of you anymore

I think about it again

carillon — music box / carousel

Carillon literally translates to "music box" or "carousel". It's an interesting and somewhat whimsical word that isn't commonly found in everyday Italian conversation or many song lyrics.

In the song, Fred De Palma uses carillon to describe a woman who "giri su quel palo come un carillon" (spins on that pole like a carillon). This vivid imagery evokes the graceful, repetitive motion of a dancer, likening her movements to the spinning figures of a music box or carousel, adding a layer of poetic charm and a touch of melancholy to the description.

In "Carillon," Fred De Palma paints a picture of a toxic and intoxicating attraction. He is completely captivated by a woman he describes as a "legendary beauty" who is a mix between a "fairy and a fatality." She is so stunning that her tight dress literally takes his breath away, and meeting her has both "destroyed and saved" him. This relationship, however, feels like a beautiful illusion.

The song's central theme is a love that might not be real. The singer confesses, "I love you because I took some stuff and I feel made for you," using a clever play on words where "fatto" means both "made" and "high." He compares the woman to a carillon (a music box), spinning mechanically and beautifully, suggesting she is an enchanting but perhaps cold and distant figure. This intense, drug-fueled obsession leaves him feeling paranoid and trapped, knowing that this fatal attraction will ultimately be his undoing.
