Novantasei Lyrics in English Coma_Cose

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Novantasei by Coma_Cose from Italian to English.
Branch bones
You're pollen falling slow
I blow you far away
If you make me be wind
In the forest, on the horizon
Low clouds, you were dancing
And you dug your grave with your feet
In front of the speakers
And I know it's necessary to get lost
To find ourselves
But never leave my head
If you don't leave room for everything I don't care about
Because you're what I want
Because I've been sleepy since '96
For the rest, everything's fine
For the rest, everything's fine
Dog bones
My hunger hasn't gone away
For breakfast two slices of bread
With honey of pain
How's bourgeois life treating you?
My rehearsal room is still there
The industrial zone, autumn creeping in
Nirvana in Brianza
And I know, it's often easier to leave
Than to forgive ourselves
But never leave my head
If you don't leave room for everything I don't care about
Because you're what I want
Because I've been sleepy since '96
Because you're what I want
Because I've been cold since '96
Outro
For the rest, everything's fine
For the rest, everything's fine
For the rest, everything's fine

SONG MEANING

Novantasei is a dreamy trip where Coma_Cose blend tender love notes with the restless energy of Italy’s suburban nights. The lyrics jump from “ossa di ramo” (branch-like bones) and slow-falling pollen to thumping speakers in a forest rave, painting a picture of two souls who can only breathe when they lose themselves together. The repeated line “perché ho sonno dal novantasei” hints at a lingering tiredness that started back in 1996, the year that symbolizes a whole generation’s sleepy search for purpose. Every image—clouds hanging low, industrial zones, Nirvana blaring in Brianza—mixes nature with concrete, romance with rebellion.

Under the poetry lies a simple heartbeat: you are everything I want, so please stay in my mind and push out the noise I don’t care about. Even when life serves “bread and honey of pain” for breakfast, the singer shrugs it off with the ironic refrain “per il resto, tutto bene” (“for the rest, all good”). It is a song for anyone who feels trapped between small-town routines and big-city dreams, between the urge to run away and the need to forgive. Let the hypnotic groove carry you back to 1996, but keep dancing in the present—the only place where losing yourself might just help you find what really matters.
