Mille Pare (Bad Times) Lyrics in English by Ghali

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mille Pare (Bad Times) by Ghali from Italian to English.
Questa volta non ti dico no, eh
This time I don't tell you no, eh
Che poi ti prendi male
Because then you get upset
E ti fai mille pare
And you overthink a lot
Fidati è solo un periodo, eh
Trust me, it's just a phase, eh
Ti piace esagerare
You like to exaggerate
E nel momento clue, tu mi butti giù
And at the crucial moment, you bring me down
Questa volta non ti dico no
This time I don't tell you no
Fino ad ora mi sembrava un bad trip
Until now it seemed like a bad trip
Mi dici: 'Smetti perché non è healthy'
You tell me: "Stop because it's not healthy"
Ti rispondo: 'Lo faceva pure Hendrix'
I answer you: "Hendrix did it too"
Dico che sei permalosa e poi ti offendi
I say you're sensitive and then you get offended
Non ho foto di quando stavo da Dio (ah-ah)
I don't have photos of when I was doing great (ah-ah)
Eravamo io, lui e un amico mio (okay)
It was me, him and a friend of mine (okay)
Poi siamo andati all'inferno e faceva frío (brrr)
Then we went to hell and it was cold (brrr)
E pure lì, che cazzo, mangiavano bio (oh, oh ,oh)
And even there, what the f*ck, they ate organic (oh, oh ,oh)
Quante cose non fai
How many things you don't do
Sei felice online
You're happy online
Ma qui non sorridi mai (Oh, oh ,oh)
But here you never smile (Oh, oh ,oh)
Scappo da 'sti bad times
I escape from these bad times
Tu mi dici 'Dai, dai, dai'
You tell me "Come on, come on, come on"
Questa volta non ti dico no, eh
This time I don't tell you no, eh
Che poi ti prendi male
Because then you get upset
E ti fai mille pare
And you overthink a lot
Fidati è solo un periodo, eh
Trust me, it's just a phase, eh
Ti piace esagerare
You like to exaggerate
E nel momento clue, tu mi butti giù
And at the crucial moment, you bring me down
Questa volta non ti dico no
This time I don't tell you no
Ma, forse gettin' jiggy with it
But, maybe gettin' jiggy with it
Mh, ah, a volte io non so che dire
Mh, ah, sometimes I don't know what to say
Oltre a cosa mi ha causato tutte 'ste ferite
Besides what caused me all these wounds
Tic tac, il tempo sa come guarire
Tick tock, time knows how to heal
Mille pare, sono triste, yeah
Overthinking a lot, I'm sad, yeah
Ho il cuore in mille pixel, yo
My heart is in a thousand pixels, yo
Forse mi serve un Disney Pixar, yeah
Maybe I need a Disney Pixar, yeah
Stanco dell'apocalisse, bro' (oh, oh, oh)
Tired of the apocalypse, bro (oh, oh, oh)
Quante cose non fai
How many things you don't do
Sei felice online
You're happy online
Ma qui non sorridi mai (oh, oh ,oh)
But here you never smile (oh, oh ,oh)
Voglio stare in good times
I want to be in good times
Se vuoi andare vai, vai, vai
If you want to go, go, go
Questa volta non ti dico no (no, no, no, no, no)
This time I don't tell you no (no, no, no, no, no)
Che poi ti prendi male (poi ti prendi male)
Because then you get upset (then you get upset)
E ti fai mille pare
And you overthink a lot
Fidati è solo un periodo, eh
Trust me, it's just a phase, eh
Ti piace esagerare (ti piace esagerare)
You like to exaggerate (you like to exaggerate)
E nel momento clue, tu mi butti giù
And at the crucial moment, you bring me down
Questa volta non ti dico no, eh
This time I don't tell you no, eh

pare — worries / thoughts

Pare is a fascinating slang term in Italian, short for paranoie, which means 'paranoia' or 'worries'. It's used to describe overthinking, getting caught up in negative thoughts, or making a big deal out of something.

In Ghali's song, the phrase "mille pare" (a thousand worries/thoughts) perfectly captures the feeling of being overwhelmed by anxiety and overthinking, a common theme in modern life. It's a very current and relatable expression that adds a unique flavor to the lyrics.
