Italian translation of the song because yes “Il contorsionista” Distrutto tutti i miei arti per te Due di loro in nodi e due di loro in loop Fiocchi legati attorno come un cappio Spero di potermene andare Non voglio farmi male per te Trattengo le parole finché manca il respiro Non mi interessa dei tuoi amici Puoi dire a loro che volevi fare Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano Corpi che collidono Il cuore pompa E non sento nulla Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano I corpi che collidono Ahi! Non riesco, non posso, non posso fare più le scivolate le ossa si rompono Non ridere, mi spingo in una scatola mentre impugni Una pistola, non riesco Wah- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Non ce la faccio, non ce la faccio Wah- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Slogò le mie ginocchia come viti Distruggo il mio ego, come sempre fai Ti ho preso come un raffreddore Achoo! Prego che un giorno sarò immune Mi guardi come un brutto tatuaggio Sempre sulla tua pelle, anche se viene mascherato Mai avuto una chance di cambiare Le posizioni in cui mi hai forzato Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano Corpi che collidono Il cuore pompa E non sento nulla Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano I corpi che collidono Ahi! Non riesco, non posso, non posso fare più le scivolate le ossa si rompono Non ridere, mi spingo in una scatola mentre impugni Una pistola, non riesco Wah- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Non ce la faccio, non ce la faccio Wah- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano Corpi che collidono Il cuore pompa E non sento nulla Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano I corpi che collidono Ahi!
I know this is another language, so the lyrics are worded differently in Italian, but if you translate those words back to English, some meanings of the lyrics will slightly change. Before translation: "Pushed myself into a box while you held out a gun" Translating back: "I push myself into a box while gripping a gun." Instead of representing how you force yourself to mask while you're reputation as your true self is held at gunpoint by OTHERS, this new lyric seems more like YOU are the one who is more disappointed in yourself because YOU are the one who thinks they will be hated. Almost like hurting yourself because of your low self-esteem. Before translation: "Got me like a bad tattoo" After translation: "You look at me like a bad tattoo" The original line can be interpreted in many ways, yet I saw it as, "You messed me up and always lurk around me, even if I forget about your terrible treatment." I see the translated line as more of, "You see me as terrible, and insanely clingy," which can be true, but only if the protagonist/contortionist shows their true self instead of masking. If the contortionist does mask, the one they're talking to won't see them that way. That is because the meaning of the song is, "Bending over backwards for someone who doesn't accept you the way you are." which can mean that they'll only accept you if you are a certain way. These are just my interpretations, but I'm sure there are others saying that these lines DO mean the same thing.
@@elisep9481 I know lol, I’m italian. The point of translating a song is not making it sound exactly how it should, is making it “sing-able”. If I were to translate exactly word by word, I wouldn’t be able to sing. I’m planning on making a cover in Italian. I’m sorry if it doesn’t sound exactly how you wanted to, but I couldn’t translate it perfectly, as it would have been just a random translation and not an actual “sing-able” song. ^^’
@@elisep9481 and no, it’s “while you’re gripping a gun”, I’m not talking about myself. I’m just fourteen but I’d say I can translate pretty well. I didn’t use a translator, because I can translate myself pretty good so I suppose it’s not a bad translation. The lyrics chances slightly, but if I didn’t change it, I wouldn’t have been able to sing it as the length of the lyrics and words changes.
@@WolfShardsUniverse It's perfectly okay! It's another language so I obviously wouldn't expect it to be exactly how it's worded in english. I was basically analyzing what the "Translate to English" button made it say and found it interesting😅so that's why I shared it with you. You should definitely do an Italian cover, and it's very nice of you to take the time to make it sing-able for you and others, so no need to be sorry at all! I've also analyzed this song down to the brim, but thank you very much for suggesting to explain the verses and stating your corrections
Twisted all my limbs for you
Two of them in knots and two of them in loops
Ribbons tied around like a noose
Wonder if I'll ever get it loose
I don't wanna bruise for you
Holding back my words until my face is blue
I don't really care about your crew
You can tell 'em what you wanted to
Bones are crushing, bones are crushing (pushin' me)
Bodies touching, bodies touching (lovin' me)
Blood is pumping, blood is pumping (pullin' me)
Feeling nothing, feeling nothing (fuckin' me)
Bones are crushing, bones are crushing (crushin' me)
Bodies touching, bodies touching (touchin' me)
Ooh-ah
I'm done, I'm done, done doin' back bends, I break and I snap
It's no fun, no fun, pushed myself into a box while you held
Out a gun, I'm done, ooh-ah, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha-ah
I'm done, I'm done, oh-ah, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha-ah
Twisting all my bones like screws
Stretching my self-worth, just like you usually do
Caught you like the cold or a flu
Praying that I'll someday be immune
Got me like a bad tattoo (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Always under skin, even when it gets removed (ooh)
Never get a chance to undo (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Positions that you forced my way into (ooh)
Bones are crushing, bones are crushing (pushin' me)
Bodies touching, bodies touching (lovin' me)
Blood is pumping, blood is pumping (pullin' me)
Feeling nothing, feeling nothing (fuckin' me)
Bones are crushing, bones are crushing (crushin' me)
Bodies touching, bodies touching (touchin' me)
Ow
I'm done, I'm done, done doin' back bends, I break and I snap
It's no fun, no fun, pushed myself into a box while you held out
A gun, I'm done, ooh-ah, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha-ah
I'm done, I'm done, ooh-ah, ha-ha, ha, ha, ha-ah
Bones are crushing, bones are crushing (pushin' me)
Bodies touching, bodies touching (lovin' me)
Blood is pumping, blood is pumping (pullin' me)
Feeling nothing, feeling nothing (fuckin' me)
Bones are crushing, bones are crushing (crushin' me)
Bodies touching, bodies touching (touchin' me)
Blood is pumping, blood is- (ow)

Italian translation of the song because yes
“Il contorsionista”
Distrutto tutti i miei arti per te
Due di loro in nodi e due di loro in loop
Fiocchi legati attorno come un cappio
Spero di potermene andare
Non voglio farmi male per te
Trattengo le parole finché manca il respiro
Non mi interessa dei tuoi amici
Puoi dire a loro che volevi fare
Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano
Corpi che collidono
Il cuore pompa
E non sento nulla
Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano
I corpi che collidono
Ahi!
Non riesco, non posso, non posso fare più le scivolate le ossa si rompono
Non ridere, mi spingo in una scatola mentre impugni
Una pistola, non riesco
Wah- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Non ce la faccio, non ce la faccio
Wah- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Slogò le mie ginocchia come viti
Distruggo il mio ego, come sempre fai
Ti ho preso come un raffreddore
Achoo!
Prego che un giorno sarò immune
Mi guardi come un brutto tatuaggio
Sempre sulla tua pelle, anche se viene mascherato
Mai avuto una chance di cambiare
Le posizioni in cui mi hai forzato
Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano
Corpi che collidono
Il cuore pompa
E non sento nulla
Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano
I corpi che collidono
Ahi!
Non riesco, non posso, non posso fare più le scivolate le ossa si rompono
Non ridere, mi spingo in una scatola mentre impugni
Una pistola, non riesco
Wah- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Non ce la faccio, non ce la faccio
Wah- ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano
Corpi che collidono
Il cuore pompa
E non sento nulla
Ossa che spaccano, che spaccano
I corpi che collidono
Ahi!
