Medicina
Porno Riviste Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Niente supposte né novalgina
Ti do io il giusto impulso
Voglio solo un video clip
Niente di buono niente di bello
Niente mi toglie da questa tomba
Ma con la faccia tutta di gomma
Grideremo
Se poi mi annoi dove vado in una vita da v.i.p.
Non ci toccate state zitti non ci dite di sì
A te non piacciono i miei modi ma va bene così
Qui esiste solo un punto di vista
Chi non lo accetta qui sanguina e basta
Ti do io il giusto impulso
Te lo do io il punto di vista
Non voglio niente ma fate attenzione
Notti di luna più effetti speciali
Lo sto chiedendo da questo momento
Grideremo
Comunque so che in qualche modo me ne vado
Da qui
Ho poche idee pochi contatti ma va bene così
Voglio soltanto che nessuno si dimentichi che
Voglio soltanto che nessuno si dimentiche me
The song "Medicina" by Porno Riviste is about the desire to escape from reality and the harshness of everyday life. The opening lines suggest a desire to switch medication, to find something stronger and more potent than the current medication being prescribed. This is then juxtaposed with the desire to create a video clip, to escape into a world of fantasy that has nothing to do with the grim reality of the present moment. The lyrics suggest a sense of disillusionment with life, with a feeling that nothing can remove them from this "tomb" except for an artificial reality.
The middle section of the song is a declaration of rebellion against the status quo. The singer says that there is only one point of view here and those who do not accept it will bleed. This is a powerful metaphor for the sense of isolation and alienation, as if the only way to survive is to be in agreement with the dominant view. Quickly followed by a plea for attention, the singer asks for "nights of the moon and special effects", suggesting a desire for a life that is larger than the everyday grind.
The final section of the song is a plea for recognition. The singer says that they do not have many ideas or contacts, but they still want to be remembered. The final line, "I just want no one to forget me" is poignant and sad, suggesting that the fantasy world created in the song is perhaps a way to escape from the fear of being forgotten.
