Mulher
Biab Lyrics

The lyrics to Biab's song "Mulher" focus on the aftermath of a failed relationship, with the singer reflecting on the pain of being left alone and grappling with feelings of anger, hurt, and loss. The chorus emphasizes the futility of talking about love if it ultimately leads to heartbreak and the need for courage to come to terms with the end of a relationship. The verses reflect on the specific memories and sensations associated with the relationship, such as the way the woman smelled and tasted, or the closeness they shared in moments of intimacy. Despite these bittersweet recollections, the singer is resigned to the fact that the relationship is over, and is reluctant to even answer the woman's phone calls because it's too painful to engage with her.

The song's title, "Mulher", translates to "woman" in Portuguese, suggesting that the lyrics are directed towards a female partner, and placing the emphasis on the singer's experience of the relationship rather than the woman's perspective. This choice reflects the common cultural trope of men singing about their romantic woes to a passive female audience, but Biab's lyrics are notable for their honesty and vulnerability, reflecting the complicated and often painful realities of failed relationships. The repetition of the phrase "me fala o que eu já sei" at the end of each chorus adds a touch of fatalism, as if the singer is searching for closure but knows deep down that there's nothing left to say.
