ANESTESIA Lyrics in English GionnyScandal

“Anestesia” plunges us straight into that foggy moment after a breakup when you feel half-awake and half-numb. GionnyScandal sings about wandering the streets with his hoodie pulled low, pretending the tears have dried, while every corner still whispers the ex’s name. He admits his own mistakes (“È stata colpa mia”), yet he cannot escape the memories that cling like perfume—she was the wings that let him fly. Now he is on a symbolic trip “verso Nord,” trying to outrun the past, but every mile only reminds him that without her, the world stings instead of soothes. She used to be his “anesthesia,” the gentle drug that dulled all pain; with her gone, the ache returns sharper than ever.

The song balances raw confession with vivid imagery to paint heartbreak as a road trip you never planned. Listeners will recognize the push-and-pull of regret and longing: keeping an old phone cover that says “I love you,” hating once-beloved places, and replaying every argument in their heads. Even the hopeful idea of coming back (“magari tornerò”) feels empty, because by the time he finds himself, she will have moved on. “Anestesia” is a bittersweet anthem for anyone who has tried to numb the pain, only to learn that love is the strongest drug—and its absence the harshest withdrawal.
