Cartoni Animati Lyrics in English Rose Villain

Home / Lyrics Translation / Rose Villain / Cartoni Animati

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cartoni Animati by Rose Villain from Italian to English.

You reached for dawn with your hand

You said I'm not romantic

You'd put on Tupac and I'd dance for you

The first floor looked like a penthouse

On the bike behind you I was hugging you

You rode like you had stolen it

You don't know, you know

That I don't even wanna keep counting anymore

The planes that slice clouds and disappear

I think of you

I don't even know what day of the month it is

Cartoons on the TV

Inside it's dark, out there's the sun

You took the sun away, baby

I think of you

Days feel like they're on hold

Cartoons on the TV

Outside it's summer, but in here there's snow

You took the sun away, baby

Close the door, undress slowly

You wanted to savor every moment

You'd put on the Guns and I'd sing for you

Punches in my chest with every beat

I still remember the ghost town

The two of us under the Duomo rolling a joint

You don't know, you know

That I don't even wanna go dancing anymore

To dive into alcohol to forget

I think of you

I don't even know what day of the month it is

Cartoons on the TV

Inside it's dark, out there's the sun

You took the sun away, baby

I think of you

Days feel like they're on hold

Cartoons on the TV

Outside it's summer, but in here there's snow

You took the sun away, baby

SONG MEANING

Cartoni Animati paints the glow of a once-thrilling romance and the dim hush that follows when it ends. Rose Villain flips through memories like TV channels: speeding on a motorcycle that feels stolen, slow-dancing to Tupac, singing along to Guns N’ Roses, and rolling a joint beneath an empty cathedral. These snapshots burst with color and adrenaline, yet they are served alongside innocent cartoons flickering on a dark screen, highlighting how childish comfort clashes with very adult heartache.

Now that the lover is gone, everyday life seems stuck in pause. Inside the room it is winter while the outside world blazes with summer sun, because he “took the sun away.” Planes cross the sky unnoticed, dates on the calendar blur, and even partying or drowning sorrows in alcohol holds no appeal. The song balances playful pop-culture references with raw vulnerability, showing how the brightest memories can leave the darkest shadows once the TV is switched off.
