Cosa Rimane (a Marco) Lyrics in English by Marco Masini

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cosa Rimane (a Marco) by Marco Masini from Italian to English.
Da sola chiusa in una stanza
Alone, locked in a room
Cammina l'anima su e giù
Your soul walks up and down
Hai perso la speranza
You've lost hope
E non parliamo più
And we don't talk anymore
E ti vergogni a tirar fuori
And you're ashamed to bring out
Il tuo veleno anche con me
Your venom even with me
Ed ogni giorno muori
And every day you die
E allora muoio come te
And so I die like you
Come un teppista lo spavento
Like a thug, fear
Ti assale la fragilità
Fragility assails you
La vivi come un fallimento
You live it like a failure
Chi ti proteggerà?
Who will protect you?
I giorni andati e le occasioni
The days gone by and the opportunities
I sogni persi per la via
The dreams lost along the way
Sul tuo diario delusioni
On your diary, disappointments
Abissi di malinconia
Abysses of melancholy
Il tuo dolore è senza voce
Your pain is voiceless
Sbagliato come il mio
Wrong like mine
Sei chiusa in una noce
You're closed in a walnut
Con la paura dei tuoi vuoti immensi
With the fear of your immense voids
A cosa pensi senza di me
What do you think about without me
A cosa pensi che cosa see'è?
What do you think, what's there?
Vorrei che mi trattassi male
I wish you'd treat me badly
Che ti gettassi addosso a me
That you'd throw yourself onto me
Con una furia di animale
With an animal fury
Per liberarti di te
To free yourself from yourself
E non vedere che ti arrendi
And not see that you surrender
Che hai voglia di buttarti via
That you want to throw yourself away
E questo buio non l'accendi
And you don't light this darkness
E non hai voce anima mia!
And you have no voice, my soul!
Da sola con la tua ferita
Alone with your wound
Su quanti libri cercherai
In how many books will you search
Di stare al gioco della vita
To play the game of life
Che non si impara mai
That you never learn
Perchè non prendi la mia voce
Why don't you take my voice
Il tuo dolore è come il mio
Your pain is like mine
Vorrei spaccare questa noce
I'd like to crack this walnut
E liberarti dai tuoi vuoti immensi
And free you from your immense voids
A cosa pensi senza di me
What do you think about without me
A cosa pensi che cosa see'è?
What do you think, what's there?
Vorrei saperlo anch'io
I'd like to know too
A cosa pensi, a cosa pensi amore mio
What you think about, what you think, my love

Did you like this lyrics translation?

noce — walnut / nut

Noce literally means "walnut" or "nut". It's an interesting word choice because it's not commonly used in such a metaphorical way in everyday Italian.

In the song, the phrase "chiusa in una noce" (closed in a nut) is used to describe someone who is withdrawn, isolated, and perhaps trapped within their own fears and insecurities. It evokes the image of a hard shell protecting a vulnerable interior, making it a unique and evocative metaphor for emotional confinement.
