Nem às Paredes Confesso
Amália Rodrigues Lyrics

The song "Nem às Paredes Confesso" by Amália Rodrigues is a melancholic and contemplative ballad about the singer's reluctance to confess her feelings for someone. The lyrics suggest a deep inner turmoil, as the singer seems to be struggling with her own emotions and questioning her own feelings. She warns the person she is addressing not to pretend to love her or to give her anything she doesn't deserve because she doesn't want to feel guilty or cause anyone pain. She then goes on to say that she cannot even confide in the walls around her about whom she likes because it is such a deeply personal and private matter. She acknowledges that she may have forgotten about someone or may still be waiting for someone, but that this is her own business and she is not willing to share it with anyone.

The refrain of the song is particularly poignant, as it emphasizes the singer's inability to even confide in the walls around her. This suggests a deep sense of isolation and loneliness, as though the singer has no one to turn to or share her feelings with. The song is a poignant reminder of the struggles we all face in trying to communicate our emotions and desires, and the fear of rejection that can often hold us back.
