Incoscienti Giovani Lyrics

[Strofa 1]
Oh, bambina
Tutto quello che hai passato è un’università
E tuo padre non tornava la sera
L’hai visto solo di schiena
Lui non sa cosa è stare insieme
No, lo so gli vuoi bene
L’amore è come una pioggia sopra Villa Borghese

[Pre-Ritornello 1]
E noi stiamo annegando, naufragando, è un romanzo
Sono solo a fare a botte con gli amici miei
Sto strisciando verso il letto e non ci sei

[Ritornello 1]
Amore mio, veramente
Se non mi ami, muoio giovane
Ti chiamerò da un Autogrill
Tra cento vite o giù di lì
Di amore muori veramente
Se non ti amo, fallo tu per me
Ti cercherò in un vecchio film
Per sempre noi incoscienti giovani
Incoscienti giovani

[Strofa 2]
Oh, bambina
Dormivamo in un Peugeot
Sì, noi due ladri di fiori
E ti ricordi o no noi prima?
A dirsi: “Mai una vita come i tuoi”
Sì, piuttosto disperati come noi

[Ritornello 1]
Amore mio, veramente
Se non mi ami, muoio giovane
Ti chiamerò da un Autogrill
Tra cento vite o giù di lì
Di amore muori veramente
Se non ti amo, fallo tu per me
Ti cercherò in un vecchio film
Per sempre noi incoscienti giovani

[Bridge]
Maledetti giovani (A fumare in quel bar)
Noi che a pezzi, giovani (Noi due pieni di guai)
Maledetti, noi incoscienti a dirsi ancora:
“Fammi una carezza, amore mio
Ma che mi faccia male”
Mezza sigaretta e dopo addio
Per noi incoscienti e giovani

[Pre-Ritornello 2]
Noi due orfanelli alla roulette
Siamo a Las Vegas sotto un LED

[Ritornello 2]
Amore mio, veramente
Se non mi ami, muoio giovane
Ti chiamerò da un Autogrill
Per sempre noi incoscienti giovani
Incoscienti giovani

Incoscienti Giovani Lyrics Meaning

[Strofa 1]
Achille Lauro opens the song with an intimate address to a bambina (young girl), immediately setting a tone of tenderness and nostalgia. He acknowledges the hardships she has endured, metaphorically likening them to a university—an education in suffering. The mention of an absent father, only seen from behind, emphasizes emotional distance and unresolved longing. Lauro subtly suggests that her understanding of love has been shaped by this absence, leading to an incomplete or broken perception of relationships. The imagery of “una pioggia sopra Villa Borghese” (a rain over Villa Borghese) adds a cinematic touch, symbolizing both romance and melancholy.

[Pre-Ritornello 1]
Here, the song shifts into a deeply introspective mood. Lauro describes a sense of drowning and drifting, portraying love and life as a chaotic novel. He finds himself fighting alone, possibly alluding to self-destruction or the struggles of his youth. The line “Sto strisciando verso il letto e non ci sei” (I’m crawling toward the bed and you’re not there) conveys a haunting loneliness, hinting at a love that has already begun to fade.

[Ritornello 1]
The chorus captures the emotional intensity of the song. Lauro equates love to survival, suggesting that without it, he would die young. The imagery of calling from an Autogrill (highway rest stop) reinforces the idea of transience, as if love and life are both fleeting journeys. The reference to searching for his lover in an old film adds a layer of nostalgia, implying that their love belongs to the past, frozen in time. The phrase “incoscienti giovani” is repeated as an anthem for reckless youth—living passionately, yet inevitably bound to heartbreak.

[Strofa 2]
The second verse shifts to a more specific memory, recalling a time when they slept in a Peugeot, symbolizing youthful rebellion and poverty. The idea of being ladri di fiori (flower thieves) suggests a romanticized version of their struggles—stealing beauty from the world around them. Lauro contrasts their past with the vow they once made: “Mai una vita come i tuoi” (Never a life like yours), a defiant rejection of a conventional or unhappy existence. However, the last line hints at their own inevitable struggles, as if they were doomed to the same fate they once sought to escape.

[Ritornello 1]
The chorus returns, reinforcing the desperation and longing for love. Lauro clings to the idea that love is necessary for survival, further highlighting the reckless intensity of youth. The repetition of “incoscienti giovani” serves as a mantra, both celebratory and tragic.

[Bridge]
This section introduces a new perspective, referring to maledetti giovani (damned youth) who spend their nights smoking in bars and getting into trouble. Lauro portrays them as fragmented souls, “pieni di guai” (full of troubles), who still seek comfort in each other despite the chaos. The plea for a painful caress (“Fammi una carezza, ma che mi faccia male”) reflects a deep yearning for emotional intensity, even if it hurts. The final line, “Mezza sigaretta e dopo addio”, symbolizes fleeting moments of connection, as if love, like a cigarette, burns out too quickly.

[Pre-Ritornello 2]
Here, Lauro and his lover are metaphorically depicted as “orfanelli alla roulette”, orphans gambling their fate in Las Vegas. The neon-lit setting underlines the theme of risk and recklessness, reinforcing the idea that their love was always a gamble.

[Ritornello 2]
The final chorus encapsulates the essence of the song—love, youth, and recklessness intertwined. Lauro resigns himself to the idea that if he cannot love, he hopes his partner will do so for him. The song ends with the lingering echo of “incoscienti giovani”, a poetic tribute to the unrestrained passion and inevitable heartbreak of youth.
