Revólver
Baustelle Lyrics

The lyrics to Baustelle's song Revolver are emotionally charged and deeply personal. The singer describes living a life of desperation and malice, admitting to taking strong doses of drugs to cope. He suggests being involved in the criminal underworld and wasting bullets - perhaps in acts of violence or self-destruction. The line "Il mio cuore l'ho lasciato" (I left my heart) describes the singer metaphorically leaving his heart behind, dead, rotten, violated, and still living. He comes alive at night, seeking sexual release and violence in the form of a revolver, which he uses to swear an oath of some sort.

The second verse is similarly dark, with the singer announcing that he has left love behind, referring to it as dead, rotten, desperate, and black. The lines "Ero coca, fa lo stesso / Faccio sesso col revolver / Sparo / Giuro" (I was doing cocaine, it makes no difference / I have sex with my revolver / I shoot / I swear) suggest that the singer is using his weapon and drugs as a form of escapism, perhaps to deal with the loss of love, or as a cry for help. The singer seems to have nothing left, but his cold, unforgiving rage and his desire for revenge, which he dedicates with a bullet hole.

Overall, the song paints a bleak picture of a person struggling to cope with their emotions and resorting to violence to deal with their pain. The lyrics are introspective and relatable to anyone who has ever experienced feelings of hopelessness or depression.
