Verse 1
Hidden among the people
Without an identity
He says that he loves me but I know that he's lying
Locked within four walls
No visits
He says that he loves me but I know that he's lying
But if only he had
The possibility
He would follow you to the four corners of the city
Or: He would follow you all around the city
Hidden among the people
Without an identity
He says that he loves me but I know that he's lying
Chorus 1
He moves freely
Dressed like a nightmare
He wants you to be in danger
But he calls you idol
But he calls you (his) idol
He moves freely
Dressed like a nightmare
He wants you to be in danger
But he calls you idol
Verse 2
He doesn't feel emotions
They're all for you
He says that he loves you but you know that he's lying
You're in his every answer
And in all his why's
Or: And in all his questions
He says that he loves you but you know that he's lying
He always wants you to play
By his rules
(To play) by his rules
He doesn't care about resembling you, he wants to be you
He wants everything
But he doesn't know what that is
He says that he loves you but you know that he's lying
Chorus 2
He moves freely
Dressed like a nightmare
He wants you to be in danger
But he calls you idol
He moves freely
Dressed like a nightmare
He wants you to be in danger
But he calls you idol
Verse 3
And you can find him outside your house
With a knife in his hand
Because you haven't responded to one of his messages
But he swears that he loved you
That he wouldn't want to do it
But you haven't reciprocated his love
And you can find him outside your house
With a knife in his hand
Because you haven't responded to one of his messages
But he swears that he loved you
That he wouldn't want to do it
But you haven't reciprocated his love
Chorus 3
He moves freely
Dressed like a nightmare
He wants you to be in danger
But he calls you idol
He moves freely
Dressed like a nightmare
He wants you to be in danger
But he calls you idol

SONG MEANING

“MARK CHAPMAN” is Måneskin’s chilling rock tale about the dark side of idol worship.

Inspired by the real-life murderer of John Lennon, the lyrics paint a portrait of an anonymous stalker who slips through crowds “nascosto fra la gente” (hidden among people) while claiming undying love. The band flips the usual love-song script: this admirer prowls the city, dresses “come un incubo” (like a nightmare), and brandishes a knife when his messages go unanswered. Each catchy riff and urgent beat mirrors the tension between passion and danger, showing how obsession can twist admiration into something violent. The song is both a warning and a thriller, inviting listeners to feel the adrenaline rush of rock while reflecting on the thin line that separates a fan from a fanatic.
