Quelli Come Me

Modà's song "Quelli Come Me" delves into the lives of individuals who are often misunderstood and overlooked by society. These people, described as 'quelli come me' (those like me), are depicted as frequenting bars late at night, lost in their thoughts as if they were characters in a film. The lyrics paint a picture of solitary figures who, despite their quiet demeanor, have rich inner lives and stories they rarely share, even with themselves. This portrayal highlights a sense of isolation and introspection, suggesting that these individuals find solace in their own company and thoughts.

The song further explores the emotional depth of these individuals, emphasizing their heightened sensitivity and vulnerability. They are described as having 'hearts of crystal,' indicating their fragility and the ease with which they can be hurt. Despite this, they possess a unique ability to love deeply and instantly, even if they have just met someone. This paradox of being both deeply emotional and guarded is a central theme, illustrating the complexity of their inner worlds. The recurring motif of leaving when the noise becomes too much symbolizes their need for peace and quiet to process their emotions and thoughts.

Modà also touches on the theme of unfulfilled dreams and the burden of promises. The lyrics suggest that these individuals often carry dreams that remain unspoken and unachieved, stored away like secrets. They are wary of empty promises, having perhaps been let down too many times. This wariness is coupled with a sense of melancholy, as they are described as always being full of it. The song captures the essence of these sensitive souls, who navigate life with a blend of deep emotion, caution, and a longing for understanding and connection.
