Non È Vero Lyrics in English by The Kolors

Veleno directly translates to "poison". It's a strong and evocative word that immediately grabs attention.

In the song, the line "L'amore è peggio del veleno" (Love is worse than poison) uses this word to express a powerful and dramatic sentiment about the destructive nature of love. This metaphorical use makes it particularly interesting and memorable.

"Non È Vero" follows a night out that is really an escape. The narrator throws themself into the club scene, changing outfits in the car so no one sees and chasing someone through the city, while insisting the ache underneath does not count: "Tanto nessuno capirà come ti senti sotto, vivo o morto" (Nobody will understand how you feel inside, alive or dead). The title becomes a refrain of denial, repeated after every admission that stings: "L'amore è peggio del veleno" (Love is worse than poison), "Siamo una giostra alla disco inferno" (We are a carousel at the disco inferno). By the bridge the narrator is still lying to themself on purpose: "Metto una benda sugli occhi così non ti vedo più" (I put a blindfold on so I do not see you anymore), because admitting the heartbreak is real would mean it does not heal by morning.
