Baby Goodbye
Acaro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
mi serve una scusa per bere per vomitare
ti cerco nelle cose di ogni giorno
anche quelle che non abbiamo fatto mai
insieme noi
I nostri video hard
la tv nell'altra stanza manda i Teen Titans
le tette da sotto danzano
ci ritroveranno come quelli di Pompei
un solo pezzo noi
Voglio tornare a star male
mi serve una scusa per bere per vomitare
ti cerco nelle cose di ogni giorno
anche quelle che non abbiamo fatto mai
insieme noi
Baby goodbye
sai che sono un malanconico ma adesso sto ridendo
passeggio e t'aspetto sai
sento il tuo profumo lancio un sassolino nello stagno
Lo sapevo che non mi dovevo innamorare
dammi un morso forse sto dormendo
non mi voglio rilassare devo stare male
mi tocco e ti penso
ma che Acaro è questo?
Voglio tornare a star male
mi serve una scusa per bere per vomitare
ti cerco nelle cose di ogni giorno
anche quelle che non abbiamo fatto mai
insieme noi
The lyrics of Acaro's song "Baby Goodbye" speak to a longing to return to a state of discomfort and pain, as the singer seeks out reasons to indulge in self-destructive behaviors like drinking and vomiting. The repetition of the desire to feel bad suggests a sense of yearning for familiarity or control in an otherwise chaotic or uncertain world. The mention of searching for the presence of a loved one in everyday things, even those never experienced together, hints at a sense of loss or separation that lingers in the singer's mind. This longing for connection is juxtaposed with images of mundane activities like watching TV and the playful reference to dancing breasts, creating a sense of surrealism and disorientation.
The reference to "Pompei" and the comparison to the preserved bodies found in the ruins evoke a sense of frozen moments in time, suggesting a fear of being trapped or immobilized in a state of emotional pain. The mention of intimate memories, such as "our pornographic videos," juxtaposed with seemingly trivial details like watching "Teen Titans" on TV, creates a sense of confusion and disconnection between past experiences and present reality. The idea of being stuck in a single piece with the other person hints at a desire for unity or closure, even in the midst of emotional turmoil.
The chorus of "Baby goodbye" introduces a melancholic tone, as the singer acknowledges their tendency towards sadness while paradoxically experiencing moments of laughter. The image of waiting and walking, accompanied by the sensory detail of smelling the loved one's perfume and skipping stones in a pond, adds a layer of bittersweet nostalgia and longing. The line "Lo sapevo che non mi dovevo innamorare" (I knew I shouldn't have fallen in love) hints at a realization of the risks and consequences of emotional vulnerability, suggesting a struggle between desire and self-preservation.
The closing verses return to the theme of wanting to feel bad as a form of resistance against relaxation or complacency. The reference to touching oneself and thinking of the other person blurs the lines between physical and emotional longing, highlighting the complexity of desire and intimacy. The final question, "ma che Acaro è questo?" (but what a bitter thing is this?), underscores the bittersweet nature of the singer's emotions, expressing a mix of confusion, longing, and perhaps resignation. Overall, the lyrics of "Baby Goodbye" capture a tumultuous mix of emotions, blending nostalgia, regret, and a yearning for connection amidst a backdrop of self-destructive impulses and existential questioning.

Voglio tornare a star male
I want to go back to feeling bad
mi serve una scusa per bere per vomitare
I need an excuse to drink and vomit
ti cerco nelle cose di ogni giorno
I look for you in everyday things
anche quelle che non abbiamo fatto mai
Even those things we never did
insieme noi
Together, us
Baby goodbye
Baby goodbye
sai che sono un malanconico ma adesso sto ridendo
You know I'm melancholic but now I'm laughing
passeggio e t'aspetto sai
I walk and wait for you, you know
sento il tuo profumo lancio un sassolino nello stagno
I smell your scent, I throw a pebble in the pond
Lo sapevo che non mi dovevo innamorare
I knew I shouldn't have fallen in love
dammi un morso forse sto dormendo
Give me a bite, maybe I'm dreaming
non mi voglio rilassare devo stare male
I don't want to relax, I have to feel bad
mi tocco e ti penso
I touch myself and think of you
ma che Acaro è questo?
But what kind of Acaro is this?
