Scintille Lyrics in English Gazzelle

Scintille literally means sparks, and Gazzelle uses that image to look back on a relationship that flared up brightly before burning out. He speaks directly to an ex-lover, half-teasing and half-aching: “Pensavo fosse amore, invece erano guai” – he thought it was love, it turned out to be trouble. Line after line, he reassures her that she can “sleep peacefully” because he will not harm himself or run off to India, yet the pictures he paints (lost eyes, a screaming sky, black trees) betray how disoriented he really feels. The contrast between calm words and unsettling scenery makes the song feel like a late-night confession wrapped in indie-pop sweetness.

In the chorus, time seems to freeze in “momenti in cui vorrei non morire mai” – moments so intense that even a second is not enough to live them fully. Still, the singer ends up “at the bottom of a bottle,” cycling between nostalgia and self-destruction while repeating a mantra-like “In fin dei conti sto bene” (“When all is said and done, I’m fine”). The result is a bittersweet snapshot of post-break-up survival: a mix of dark humor, raw vulnerability, and the stubborn hope that tomorrow the sparks might hurt a little less.
