Pacífico
Pacifico Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Acqua , fuoco, onde cento metri,
vento di burrasca che fa tremare i vetri e che mi batte
mi conto le ossa rotte, le palpebre disfatte,
io chiamo ma la radio non trasmette

Acqua, fuoco, onde sulla testa,
turbine e risucchio lascio che mi investa e mi trascini
sul fondo mai toccato,
nel buio circostante sentirsi appena nato,
nel buio capovolto e rigirato

RIT.
pacifico lontano, dieci ore d'aeroplano,
stanotte ti ho sognato,
ruggivi tormentato tra i cuscini
sentivo che ansimavi, schiumavi e t'ingrossavi,
per terra rovesciato che ringhiavi
pacifico lontano, dieci ore d'aeroplano,
stanotte sei arrivato, crescevi e mi sentivo circondato,
spezzare e sollevare
per poi tornare calmo e sconfinato

Acqua, fuoco, onde cento metri,
che il mare di tempesta non tollera divieti e costrizioni,
non servono profeti per fare previsioni:
saranno terremoti ed eruzioni

RIT.
pacifico lontano, dieci ore d'aeroplano,
stanotte ti ho sognato,
ruggivi tormentato tra i cuscini
sentivo che soffiavi, ferito ripiegavi,
al centro della stanza vorticavi
pacifico lontano, dieci ore andando piano,
stanotte sei arrivato, piovuto dallo spazio, diluviato,
spezzare e scoperchiare
per poi tornare calmo e smisurato

Gino, papà napoletano,




un quarto brasiliano
pacifico = Milano

Overall Meaning

In Pacifico's self-titled song "Pacifico," the lyrics describe the overwhelming and uncontrollable power of the ocean, as well as the singer's dream of a distant and tumultuous Pacific. The opening lines, "Acqua, fuoco, onde cento metri, vento di burrasca che fa tremare i vetri e che mi batte" (Water, fire, waves a hundred meters tall, a storm wind that shakes the windows and beats against me), set the tone for the rest of the song. The singer feels small and beaten down by the forces of nature, and even when he calls out for help, he receives no response.


As the song progresses, the singer imagines being pulled under the waves, feeling "appena nato" (barely born) in the darkness below. The chorus, "pacifico lontano, dieci ore d'aeroplano, stanotte ti ho sognato" (Distant Pacific, ten hours by plane, I dreamt of you tonight), reveals his longing for a far-off and wild Pacific, where he can feel small but connected. The second verse delves further into the singer's dream, as he envisions the Pacific as a living creature, "ruggivi tormentato tra i cuscini" (roaring tormented among the cushions), and as something that can be both destructive and restorative.


Overall, the lyrics of "Pacifico" explore the complex relationship between humans and nature, specifically the ocean. While the forces of the ocean may seem overwhelming and uncontrollable, there is also a sense of awe and reverence for its power.

Acqua, fuoco, onde cento metri, vento di burrasca che fa tremare i vetri e che mi batte mi conto le ossa rotte, le palpebre disfatte, io chiamo ma la radio non trasmette
I am surrounded by tumultuous elements - water, fire, and massive waves that crash over me. Strong gales rattle the windows and pound against my body, leaving me feeling broken and exhausted. Despite my attempts to call out for help, there is no response from the radio.


Acqua, fuoco, onde sulla testa, turbine e risucchio lascio che mi investa e mi trascini sul fondo mai toccato, nel buio circostante sentirsi appena nato, nel buio capovolto e rigirato
I surrender myself to the turbulent forces above me - water, fire, and towering waves that pull me under. I sink to a depth I have never experienced before, surrounded by darkness that makes me feel both reborn and disoriented.

I dream of the Pacific Ocean, which feels far away after a ten-hour plane ride. In my dream, I sense the turbulence and distress of the ocean, as it roars and foams like an angry beast. It grows and swells around me, but eventually subsides, leaving me feeling both broken and awestruck.


Acqua, fuoco, onde cento metri, che il mare di tempesta non tollera divieti e costrizioni, non servono profeti per fare previsioni: saranno terremoti ed eruzioni
The stormy ocean is a force to be reckoned with, ignoring the boundaries and constraints that humans try to impose on it. There is no need for prophets or seers to predict the dangers that lurk beneath, whether through earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.

Once again, I dream of the Pacific, which seems far away after a ten-hour plane ride. In my dream, I feel the tumultuous energy of the ocean stirring within me. The ocean seems to rage and writhe, casting its force throughout the room before finally subsiding into calmness and tranquility.

Days in the west end, ride through the weekend
Never had a ceiling, no way
Lost in the deep end, waves speak a feelin
Loves what I'm reeling someway

I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone

I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone

Through the tall and winding roads
Sunlit mountains off the coast
Sea foam dreams to lead me home
I left it all in Pacifico
One last taste of summer glow
A piece of me we've always known
Sea foam dreams to lead me home
I left it all in Pacifico, Pacifico
Pacifico, Pacifico, Pacifico, Pacifico

I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone

I just wanna be someone
I just wanna be someone

Through the tall and winding roads
Sunlit mountains off the coast
Sea foam dreams to lead me home
I left it all in Pacifico
One last taste of summer glow
A piece of me we've always known
Sea foam dreams to lead me home
I left it all in Pacifico, Pacifico
I left it all in Pacifico, Pacifico
I left it all in Pacifico, Pacifico
I left it all in Pacifico
I left it all in Pacifico
