Giusy Ferreri - Il Sapore Di Un Altro No

This was tough... someone please check my translation.

Also I wasn't sure if "un altro no" is like "a different no" or "someone else, no"

decidessi io non rimarrei
if it were up to me I wouldn't stay
non mi accendo ma brucerò
I don't catch fire but I will burn
se starò un isola
if I remain an island
la marea mi conforterà
the tide will comfort me

tutto quanto sembra più forte
everything seems stronger
quando non hai un master plan
when you don't have a master plan
e non gira il tempo di un orologio
and the wheel of time stops turning
se distratto strappo la fotografia
if I absent-mindedly shred the picture
né sapore né paura
neither taste nor fear
dentro il cuore di chi non l'ha
within the heart of whoever doesn't have it
ed assaggerò
and I will taste
il sapore di un altro no
the taste of another no

aspetterò convincendomi poi
then I will wait, convincing myself
che anche l'odio può andar bene se sei tu
that hatred can also go well if it's you
non dirò di chi è colpa no
I won't say who's at fault, no
resta cieco chi non ne ha
whoever has no fault goes blind

ho rubato i pezzi di un libro
I've stolen the pages of a book
ne pagasti tu ciò che fu
you paid the price for what happened
e sentendosi da solo scoperto
and feeling alone, uncovered
il protagonista non sarei più io
I wouldn't be the protagonist anymore

fossi in me berrei ma ahi
if I were in my shoes, I'd drink but ah
perderei la mia realtà
I would lose my reality
spettatore malinconico sarà
it would be a sad onlooker
il sapore di un altro no
the taste of another no

aspetterò convincendomi poi...

decidessi io non rimarrei

It should be "se decidessi io"= if it were up to me, if it was my choice I wouldn't stay

resta cieco chi non ne ha

whoever has no fault goes blind/is blind

ne pagasti tu ciò che fu

the phrase sounds a bit odd, it could be "you paid the consequences, you paid the price for what once happened" (her theft perhaps)

fossi in me berrei ma ahi

It could mean "if i were in my shoes, if i were me".
Usually it is used with other subjects: se fossi in te/lei/loro berrei ma ahi= if i were in your/her/their shoes I'd drink but alas...

"Essere in se/fuori di se" can also mean "be in your right mind, behave normally, be fine/ be out of your mind or be beside yourself -with anger usually-.

There's no "se" in the song though, it really begins with "decidessi io". I suppose it's implied?

Thanks as usual for your insight

You're welcome!
Yes, it's implied, like in "(se) fossi in me", otherwise the phrase doesn't make much sense...
